Well, if that be the case - which I can understand - then he should be able to fine them for price variations between their stores. If all the computers are linked, then a can of tuna should cost the same on Nassau Street as it does on Mackey St.
*******"Dr Louis, author of “My Soul Is in Haiti: Protestantism in the Haitian Diaspora of the Bahamas,” explained that he observed Haitian-Bahamian relations first-hand as he conducted research for his book during 2005 and 2012 in New Providence.
#He said he was shocked at that time by the blatant discrimination and derogatory manner in which Haitians, and persons of Haitian descent were treated, which was often unmasked and celebrated in Bahamian society."****************
That is the article - quoted above.
why is he shocked???????? All he has to do is look at the title of his own book to know the answer. He says his soul is in Haiti. That is the problem with all of them. They come here wanting to live better lives (they claim, but it is a lie) - and then celebrate Haitian Flag Day like it's Christmas.
His book has the very best title to describe the whole problem. Their bodies are here - but their minds and soul are still where they came from. In that way, they can be of no benefit to the Bahamas, or even themselves. Well, except that their kids probably all get A+ on their times-table quizzes, cause they learn from their parents how to multiply.
****** "The official opposition is afraid to speak up on the issue because they don’t want to appear that they are siding with the Haitian community or siding with the immigrants"
Is he kidding??????????? It has been nothing but FNM people speaking out against these polices over the past several months.
****** "He described the experience of persons born in the Bahamas of Haitian descent as “20 times” more severe than challenges faced by ordinary citizens,"
Is he kidding?????????? Well if that is true, then maybe they should resign from their jobs and give them to Bahamians, so that they can enjoy the 20 times better life that unemployed Bahamians have.
Thank the lucky stars that breadbasked items ARE being charged VAT - because there are "some people" in this country who ONLY eat breadbasket. They export their extra money that they could buy other stuff with. They hardly pay any taxes and many pay zero taxes. Are you happy paying their share?
Just heard that now that because the Bahamas is going to start requiring non-Bahamians to have a student visa/permit, that the USA is going to START requiring Bahamians to have a student visa to study over there too LOL.
