Still not sure of the exact timing... if I cared enough Id look, but it was **before the lockdown, before we reported our first case. It had not spread here**, so their thinking was people would avoid Europe and come to us .. which thinking back on it was purely crazy. We would have literally painted a "COVID welcome here" sign. COVID was spread by tourists.

Ok.

The last time I heard a positive spin on a pending global disaster/crisis was when DAguilar said in March 2019(?) "we'll capitalize on COVID"... not so well thought out and did not go so well...

When Trump inflation hits the US, it will hit Canada. Everybody will have less discretionary money.

"*We put down a pedestrian walkway from the vacant lot, where a lot of vehicles park across to the waterfront there, so her memory will live on.”*"

That's a bad location for a crosswalk. I often wonder if there's anyone who's actually studied the science of traffic management involved in the positioning of road safety aids. It's almost like they're trying their best to put pedestrians and drivers in danger.

Think of it, a car heads north on Prince charles, makes a right turn and accelerates, two feet in front of them is someone on a crosswalk... A car comes around the bend, in front of them is someone on a crosswalk, in both cases the pedestrian believes, because the crosswalk is there, cars must stop. And theyd be right. But can they?

If they wanted to honour the young lady they'd put lighting down the length of Eastern Road and Prince Charles

These guys could tell DEPP anything and they wouldnt know the truth from a fairy tale, it's simply not their area of expertise. Another trap not to fall into, dont start getting cozy with the people you're supposed to be regulating.... clearly what happened with FTX

"*Officials said recovery operations would continue until all debris is accounted for*"

Has the govt received any information from SpacesX on how much of the last exploded rocket they recovered? Because Turks and Caicos residents are apparently still finding fragments... on land... not irrecoverably under the depths of the ocean as some apologists would like us to believe

"*OPM again stressed that the Starship is different from SpaceX’s Falcon-9 rockets.*"

This is like saying, once Trump pardons Sam (wait for it...), he is welcome to come back and open a financial services firm called ABX and stressing that ABX is different from FTX. Investors know leadership set the direction and culture... clearly our govt doesnt

Elon?

Well... as the owner of the strap metal yard that caught fire two(?) weeks ago said ~"*their house een burn, it's only my property that got damaged. What they complaining about? Smoke?*"

The statement tells you how in trouble we are. Is more of them than us

"*Barry Griffin said Super Value’s much-touted egg price reduction is “only the beginning”*

But they already admitted Super Value found the supplier through their ***own efforts***. The govt didnt lift a finger. They simply inspected the eggs as they would for any imported agricultural product.

Our government sells themself over and over again to any rich person with long dollars. They ask zero questions, facilitate anything they want to do then when the damage is done they allow them to walk away Scott free. Is oil still soaking the grounds of the pine forest from the Equinor oil spill?

Nygard was allowed to continue grooming young impoverished Bahamian girls for sex under the guise of running a modeling agency for decades apparently. FTX got the keys to the city. One can only imagine the teeth flashing when someone mentioned Elon Musk's name.

And Bahamians do the same. I was horrified months ago when Starlink showed up to offer us a **paid** internet service and callers to radio stations droned on for hours about what a wonderful opportunity this was for us. "Opportunity".. to pay someone??? Doesnt this remind you of the stories of the Columbus landing? The natives were so awed to see white people, treated them like gods.

I think I get it, when they get an opportunity to sit within 2ft of a rich person, thoughts of all the money theyll just be handed start to flow through their brains. Elon will give one million to every Bahamian out the goodness of his heart.

Word to the wise. Elon says "*The fundamental weakness of Western civilization is empathy*". When people lack empathy they have a great willingness to inflict, watch, enjoy or ignore the suffering of others. If a few meaningless Bahamians die in the pursuit of space, SpaceX made great progress right? This whole DOGE movement is one big weird empathy absent, punish those lazy govt workers, glee that theyve lost their income, health insurance, disability care, lifesaving medical treatments...

They erased all traces of the black Tuskegee airmen from the military training material, he's pushing Trump to protect South African white farmers who benefited during the apartheid "black owned farm land seizure and give away". He gave a Nazi salute at a republican victory party and was funneling money into a neoNatzi german political party

Read the room.

The most glaring issue to me were the links the Tribume identified to Anthony Ferguson in the BPL deal, the cruise ship energy deal and this moorings deal. Its plain weird. All of the contracts were no bid and Ferguson acts "*loosely*" as an advisor to the PM. He was featured prominently in the FTX securities deal then again in negotiations for these climate change seagrass monetization. And to be clear he might be the most qualified and best person to do all of this work, but the under the covers manner in which it is all being done raises questions. Cruise port energy was basically handed on a platter to some unheard of company, with a sketchy website, no identification of key personnel, in a communication byline ... it's all weird
