The apology that it was inappropriate but not that it was untrue? Legally the claims were not retracted... Pintard could be what he claims but without evidence or corroboration and his clear animosity discredits any assumed goodwill. Funnily enough Pintard's claims were widely supported by facts, while also being inappropriate. A material difference. Money being improperly withheld, a divorce and being legally evicted even if he claims he did not reside at the location are evidenced by reporting and independent third parties.

The delusion of the COI rabble is the saddest thing about fighting for change. They will do anything but actually learn the methods of governing and the mechanisms of the Bahamas' economic reality.

They will claim 10X bigger claims of prosperity than the FNM or PLP could fix their mouth to fib, but worst yet, they have no history of even personal success to lend to the claim. They are looking for a king's coffers full of gold that will flood the people with thousands if not millions. FNM/PLP may not be the panacea The Bahamas needs, but COI definitely would be the populist poison with a large bark. We do live in pseudo Dark Forest, in that, EU, US, and CHINA can unmake our wealth via policy if the uncouth mob starts to speak officially for the country. Mr. Bain or his loyal adherents, forget the Venezuelan dream turning to ash due to popularist dreams. They too thought their resources, in that case Oil, would make the country a mainstay and all it took was a market price crunch on Oil and the wealth vanished, the trickling diaspora turned to a full on rout.

Aimless demagogues only seeking the rabble's praise, have and will never properly govern.

I just don't comprehend what a rational reason a party would think he is a fit candidate. Are they beholden to him for some reason?

He, himself, is a controversial topic. One must suspect, why would he want to do this when he's lauded as a man always so busy running businesses. Why would he hand that over or in the case that he doesn't, why would we trust another business person to not seek their interest even in ways we can't comprehend are their interest, given how vast his business interests are rumored to be.

Nothing is stopping him from building community centers or investing in the betterment of the Bahamas at this time, given his estimated wealth, so why the need for this?

This goes for all the Bahamian multimillionaires, not grandstanding singularly for Mr. Bastian.

Mr. Isaacs must be insane. That is such a bad take.

Say no to Cuban slave labour.

Please strike and let the government change the entire game. Tired of these outdated leeches. They barely even serve the Bahamian people. BTCU owes the government millions in various ways to various ministries but acts like they have any moral/legal grounds for this attitude.

Bain has to be PYSOP to make sure we don't evolve as voters. He is ignorance manifested and made flesh to do the bidding of the flailing uneducated masses who believe threatening/destroying an imperfect system is akin to saving the day.

It's almost as if the alleged financial abuse against Cuban workers was proven true....Didn't the Government defend that they were not participating in this abuse willingly? Once they realized then it was time to save face? Glad they made the change going forward but who's being held responsible for the issue the US had to inform us of?

IATA is just the round about lobby by member carrier size. They will do their norm, of pressuring US regulators to pester and tie up Bahamas Air with issues as a response. IATA's first and foremost duty historically, has been fixing costs to be lower or slower on the uptick for it's major airlines and making all revenues cost the consumer more to avoid "options" to the consumer. A professional, certified, tie and jacket cartel that does some good, but only as long is it it's profitable.

This is almost comical. It's starting to pick up a clear tone and it's disappointing.
