Edmonton's murder rate spiked in 2011 to 4.17 per 100,000 people. It has since dropped to 2.68. Canada's average rate - 1.56 per 100,000.

Bahamas murder rate - 34.1 per 100,000 in 2012. Edmonton is pretty damn safe compared to the Bahamas. Huge, huge difference. Let's not pretend otherwise.

So, crime is under control, is it? Anarchy is closer and closer every day.

If you don't pay your taxes, you expect that the government still keep your information confidential?!?!

PGC and Nottage are so full of sh!t. It is really sad that they think they are fooling Bahamians. What gall must one have to come out and say there's been a systematic reduction in crime and tie that to there being one less murder in N.P. to date. I guess he picked N.P. because in G.B. there has been an increase. Ok, one less murder - let's throw him a parade.

Some people have no shame. There's a special place in hell reserved for Randy Fraser.

become a Banana Republic?? The Bahamas already is?! It is actions like this that will drive away investment.

Well said, Rick Lowe and Honestman!

It's really sad that people such as Mr. Evans call themselves Christians but then promote intolerance, hatred and discrimination. And, hiv/aids is not a gay disease. Are you stuck in 1983?? Too many of our young people have a false sense of security because of the irresponsibility of such preachings.

He is mixed race? How does that matter? Mixed race persons are more likely to be socially deviant??

rory, I was not speaking for Bahamians, just making an observation. And you totally supported by observation by your statement. I don't know who is coming to the Bahamas and getting paid 1000 more for the same work - I cannot imagine an employer just giving away money like that!
