Maybe time government introduces finance assistance for residences to put in solar and/or generators in residences to reduce their reliance on BEC. Obviously they are not up to the task. God help us when Bahamar comes on line!

MP Lightbourne is quite correct. The biggest impediment is there is a significant percentage of the population who cannot read proper English which is the language in which our laws are written. The government will have to produce video content for television and internet in the simplest form possible for our biggity rocket scientists to understand. The populace voted against women's rights before garnering world wide attention to our level of ignorance. Perhaps for once the nation can project a global image as being informed and responsible.

She won't be standing for long unless she spends some time in a gym!

So apropos almost 40 years to the day that Nixon resigned over his tapes coming to light. Nygard's problem is that he is trying to play in the big boy's sandbox. Bacon will do everything in his power to squash the irritating mosquito from next door.

The fact of the matter is this. The north coast of Haiti is where the least ambitious and prosperous Haitians reside. These people have been the cast offs since the get go and now are thousands of castaways that are populating The Bahamas at am alarming rate. They were the last of the slaves on the non-direct Haiti shipments. Who were not sold in Guadeloupe, Martinique and the other French colonies were essentially dumped at a bargain price in Cap Haitian. It was their leader who murdered the liberator of Haiti. It was their people that burned all the plantations of Haiti and have scorched the landscape of that country ever since. The DR is lush garden while its neighbour Haiti is a waste land. The president of Haiti has no interest in curtailing the migration of boat people from the north coast. The people of Haiti would love nothing more than The Bahamas losing its soul to the north coast "untouchables". Ever wonder why all the Haitians look a like in The Bahamas? That is due to the fact that no other Haitian wants to mix blood with the people of the north coast. So the Haitian president steps close to the periphery of blackmail when he suggests The Bahamas invest in agriculture in the same area in Haiti where the people torched all he plantations in their nation and set a course of poverty that has never abated no matter how much money has been thrown at them. Simple solution. Dump a 747 of condoms on the north coast and burn all the boats. We already have too much of a major problem to deal with future generations of the scourge that now resides in the shadows of our islands. It is time to stop being the dumping ground of the Haitians that Haiti wishes it never knew.

The real concern is this additional revenue will probably not go to bringing down the debt but a coffer builder for the government in power to fight the next election with. The revenue from this tax should be restricted as a sinking fund to reduce the nation's debt.

The Democrats control the Senate now. What happens if things change in the mid-terms?

Nygard and hyperbole are synonymous!

Marlon needs a new photo. At least if he is to be taken seriously wherever he goes next.

Looks like Nygard's rent a parade backfired. He will probably deduct the cost off his Canadian taxes.
