A solution will require compromise, a meeting in the middle. If you want the whole cake you will probably end up with nothing. We need to compromise and fix this problem once and for all.
I do not know for certainty either way but I seriously doubt most if hardly any of these squatters were paying rent. If they have been squatting for 7 years or more as it seems most of them have been then they have some claim to the land.
Regardless of how you feel about this seemingly intractable situation, we all want to see this resolved. The only question is how it is done. How about we do it in as humane and equitable manner as possible seeing that all Bahamians, especially our governments bear a great deal of culpability in this matter. We can all agree that we can not allow the previously intolerable situation to develop again.
Please Bahamian people (and our foreign friends, deranged and sane) try to relax. We have seen this movie many many times before and we know how it ends. These politicians are just playing you. They talk big about enforcing the law, throwing a Pavlovian bone to the pot cakes so to speak and all these hating anti Haitian Bahamians begin foaming at the mouth. Just relax and enjoy the status quo. At the end of the day your belly will still be empty, nothing will change
I know this is a serious subject but the entertainment value of these comments is off the charts. The tribune should charge access to these comments. Dave Chappell is a joke. Lol.

No need for expensive payouts, simply swap for crown land which we have an abundance of.

The world is not black or white it is gray. There will be no solution without compromise, hopefully wiser, sane heads will prevail.

Hard to see the government winning this one. This case is destined ultimately for the privy council and we know how they will rule....

They fulfill this mandate everyday.
