*We have to decide what kind of tourism you want, whether it will be golf-driven because there are a number of golf courses here on Grand Bahama, or casino-driven*
Liar !! - There's one 18 hole golf course & one 9 hole. Neither of which are in great shape, and struggling to stay open. There are no casinos, and don't go thinking tourists will go to the Bahamas to gamble in the casinos. Those days are long gone, now that casinos are plentiful in most states of the USA, unlike they were 20-30 yrs ago.
Just in case you accidentally missed this news. I'll leave you to research the source of the quotes
*The number of Americans dying each day from Covid-19 now stands as high as it did during the Delta variant's peak, a grim figure that experts believe will rise.*
*According to statistics from Johns Hopkins University, the daily average of confirmed Covid-19 deaths surpassed 2,000 on 21 January and stood at 2,033 on 23 January*.
*The common thread throughout the Omicron wave is that it is largely impacting the unvaccinated, in terms of severity of illness, hospitalisation rates and indeed, risk of dying from the infection,*
As others have mentioned, the issue is with Canada, not The Bahamas. Visitors from other countries (including Europe & Asia), face the same entry requirements but they manage to make it okay.
Exactly!! I personally have been in & out of The Bahamas several times in the past year, and a couple of those have been to places much further away than Canada. I've always found the Bahamas entry requirements to go extremely smoothly, even if at first I was put off as they did seem too restrictive.
The issue is on the letter writers end and not on The Bahamas end.
Where the heck do you get your information from ? You're telling us that 2500 pilots have died from taking the Covid vaccines? Then, what number of everyday people who fly have died because of the vaccine? It must be astronomical !!
Basic Finance should be a compulsory class on the High School curriculum **throughout the world**, just like Math, Languages & Science are. Get rid of some of those touchy-feely classes or Religious Education. Learning the basics of saving, investing, credit, mortgages, pensions, taxes etc. will get you a lot further in life, and be more useful to you in the long run, than any of those other useless classes.
STFU about OBAN will you. It's History !!!, We all know it was a Minnis/FNM cluster-F. Move on, if your pea-sized PLP brown nosing brain has the capacity to do so.
Why not try and contribute something intelligent & useful to these comments sections ?. You've been spouting the same political vitriol for years and, to my knowledge, have never contributed anything of substance to any of the discussions. You must have a very sad, sad, sad life if this is all you can contribute.
