Actually the full story is now circulating on social media with names, places, dates, etc.
No shock. These people are all in it for the money and kickbacks hence the race to give up their day jobs for Parliament. God, it must be sweet to serve!
I agree with Mr. Miller. If you are man enough to take on a wife, then you should be able to take care of her in your native land.
With regard to this so-called gender equality, if you are going to amend the Constitution, then amend it so that the right is taken away from the man and make everyone toe the line - male and female. That way the law is impartial to no one.
“We really need full clarity on this matter,” Mrs Butler-Turner told The Tribune. “To me if we look at the fourth Bahamas Constitutional Bill the insertion of the word “sex” presents a challenge because it creates ambiguity and opens us up to same sex marriages."
I agree. Solution change it to "gender". If they leave it, I will be voting "NO".
Well said! Every time Bahamians blog in the negative about this Haitian migration/citizenship issue, there is always one fool in the mix who brings up this American citizenship sh**. We are NOT America. And No! We CANNOT handle it! We do not enter America illegally in mass and camp out in their hospitals and schools working illegally and having children! The Haitians who are here legally are in the minority and the ones cussin' for rights are usually second and third generation Haitians whose parents entered this country illegally. i agree with the earlier blogs. Even you are going to entertain them for any residency at all give them permanent residence and let them carry their backsides to the Haitian Embassy for their passports. Citizenship should not be a right - it's a privilege earned and not earned by breaking the darned law!!!
I have lost my respect for Mr. Chipman and I certainly won't be voting FNM in the next election if this is how his party is thinking. Mercifully, he does not represent the FNM or the majority because he will find that most right-thinking Bahamians would not agree to this. One only has to listen to the talk shows or follow social media. Any time you want to start a firestorm, talk about Haitian migration and their perceived "rights" to citizenship in The Bahamas after breaking our law, entering our country illegally and then "havin' chirren".
The bottom line is this is a vexing problem that needs to be addressed and not in the far future. He should take his cue from Dr. Minnis, and choose his words carefully when making any comments in this regard,
I think the union is trying to get Miller out. Every power outage - and there are many - is a reflection on him. Get rid of him and I guarantee that the power outages will stop.
Child, Mr. Gibson, this should not surprise or shock you. Anyone who has ever had to deal with any Government ministry or department knows that good customer service is the exception rather than the rule. You may have used your column to address the poor service, but trust me, nothing will change. I suggest you simply do what I do. I just make it a point to ALWAYS compliment any civil servant who is pleasant and appears to be making an effort to give good customer service. Trust me, they are few and very far between.
You and I may be long dead and gone before this slack system of poor Government service ever changes. In the meantime, try not to take it on.

Because the issue of Haitian migration is far more pressing. Weed out the illegals then let's concentrate on the legals.
