Due to Starlinks' ability to provide quality services at better costs, without hard connections like cable and fiber, Starlink will very quickly become the leader in telephone, cable, and internet services throughout the Bahamas within 6 to 9 months of start-up.

Whether BTC, Cable Bahamas, and Aliv are ready to face reality or not, Starlink is the future!

Cable Bahamas' $80m-$85m investment in its fibre-to-the-home network designed to compete head-on with BTC's similar infrastructure is a redundant exercise that won't amount to a hill of beans when Starlink rolls out.

The only instance when BTC, Cable Bahamas, and Aliv, might be of any prevalence to consumers is during a hurricane or severe weather event that would interfere with Starlink connections.

Otherwise, BTC, Cable Bahamas, and Aliv, will quickly become relics of the past!

Lol...Even a blind man can see this is just another tactic for stalling.

"However, we certainly have every right to proceed with violations of the Buildings Regulation Act". Someone finally figured that out?

Are these clowns trying to tell us 50 years down the road' that both parties are completely incompetent? They'll be wanting our votes soon enough!

It is easy for those that have everything to advocate for those that have less to "pull up their own socks and make better decisions".

However, these very same privileged people conveniently forget that their forefathers didn't "pull up their own socks" which provided the opportunities for generational wealth which they benefit from today!

The playing field must be leveled so we as humans may progress as equals.

I have enjoyed many weeks in Africa. Incredibly, you descendants of the slave trade feel it is unfair to level the playing field by doing for blacks now what was done for your forefathers then that allowed you to progress!

Hundreds of years of ill gotten-privilege are ingrained in your DNA and you've grown accustomed to the love for servitude, racism, prejudice, racial discrimination, and social injustices that is the legacy of slavery.

From the start of the European slave trade (c. 1500) to the Civil War (1865) “The total number of slaves imported is not known. It is estimated that nearly 900,000 came to America in the 16th Century, 2.75 million in the 17th Century, 7 million in the 18th, and over 4 million in the 19th – perhaps 15 million in total. Probably every slave imported alive represented, on average, five corpses in Africa or on the high seas. The American slave trade alone, therefore, meant the elimination of at least 60 million Africans from their fatherland.”

The largest slave trade in the history of the world was created by white Christian Europeans. Before it was over as many as 60 million Africans would be killed for the profit of white Christian imperialism.

Generations after generations of you racists profiting immensely from hundreds of years of ill gotten-privilege compared to hundreds of years of debilitating slavery, and now you have the audacity to look down on the descendants of the black people whose shoulders and heads your forefathers stood on to get you where you are today!

The playing field must be balanced to eradicate servitude, racism, prejudice, racial discrimination, and social injustices you have unjustly become accustomed.

SP says...

The insanity is racist people like you refusing to comprehend and acknowledge the causes of wealth and education disparities between whites and blacks, yet believing you have the right to degrade blacks for their position and condition in life!

You racists are quick to say "The constant talk about slavery needs to be put to bed" However, not one of you has any difficulty with the reparations and constant talk about the Jewish holocaust.

Only around 12 million Jews were killed by the Nazis compared to literally hundreds of millions of blacks (and counting) in the black holocaust.

Why are reparations fair to Jews but not to blacks?

Why is it that these racists never refer to "guilt" as the go-to factor in discussing and teaching about the Jewish holocaust, but"guilt" is always brought front and center as soon as the black holocaust is mentioned?

Blacks deserve even more reparations than Jews because as slaves, they were used as free labor for hundreds of years to build the foundations of the United States and Europe!

This is why the Republican party is fighting tooth and nail to stop black history being taught in schools.

You, racist people, need to study black history before opening your ignorant mouths. The only reason whites are economically, socially, and educationally ahead of blacks is because of the effects of slavery.

It is way past time to level the playing field so balance could prevail!

SP says...

I have absolutely no trust in Winder or the government. It wouldn't be surprising to anyone if they are manipulating the process to get the results they want!

SP says...

If we followed the United Nations, the Bahamas would be totally inundated with Haitians overnight.

As far as the UN is concerned, Haitians, Bahamians, and everyone else from the Caribbean are all just useless black people anyway!

SP says...

Is Ian Winder one of the tens of thousands of "them" hiding in plain sight behind a Bahamian name, or is he one of us?

Does anyone know the facts?
