Can we get some local government here in N.P, I don't think I should have to deal with the slackness of Ministry of Environment just to keep the parks cleans or Ministry of Works just to get a simple sidewalk repaired/built.
The reason our communities are in decline is because we have a bunch of people not from them and who never have the experience of living there running services that they can't keep up with. If Planning and Environmental powers were given to N.P communities people would certainly benefit.
Also, if they are gonna give the title of Mayor out please make sure that these individuals actual are in charge of a town/settlement or it literally makes no sense to call them that. Chief Counselor will do just fine with added powers Hopefully, Family Island Councils will be given the ability to raise funds and make investments.
LMAO, Mr. Bell is a joke, this whole administration is a joke. What in the world did they go there to do, that couldn't be done here. And did he he say they more respectful of police because they pull over??? Like where is he from, I always see people pull over for any emergency services unless they are unable due to lack of space.
This is being explained and set up in a overtly complex matter. The government through BAIC should simply set up the infrastructure for farmers to lease, transport, and store their products.
Yep, unfortunately our leaders are to scared to push for the effective solutions. Canada and America act so timidly at a situation spiraling out of control right on their doorstep. Yet a thousand miles away they'll throw any money they can.
When the government fails to live up to its requirements people take matters into his own hand. If all Mr. Bain says is true legally as long as he doesn't threaten the life of the individuals he can demolish those homes. Because as far as I know if your given a notice to leave you have to leave.
Although I don't believe that vigilantes like Mr. Bain should draw near to this situation, they should raise awareness not be involved in demolishing the homes. So I still don't support stunts like this because people may get the wrong message that they must destroy homes via their own means.
This is what happens when leaders to take the time to understand what they are getting into. Furthermore unlike the US Congress with its library, nobody is interested in telling the true history unless their party looks good.
You'll never hear about the drug commission, the assignation attempts/conspiracy, and the hero's on the other side. No one knows about the Vanguard, the Sunshine Boys, or the initial reality of the Hawksbill Agreement. Neither will you believe that of our history with railroads/trains, the origins of the 1st political party, and that we produced local dairy milk at one point in time.
