I don't know if you live in Abaco, but all the people who worked on the ground there said with the destruction to the power grid, there was no way for that to be restored in less than 1 year.
The reality is that if people had to live with what we in Freeport have had to deal with in relationship to power after a storm, they would learn not to complain about being off for 12 hours.
Why are islands that have no cases being treated like islands that have cases? Why lockdown those islands that do not have one reported case with the rest? I don't understand that logic.
The so called Convention Treaty is nonsense. The European Union has banned flights form the Bahamas. The US banned flights from the UK and Chine in the early stages of the virus. So that talking point about reversing who we ban because of the Convention is no so.l It was reversed no doubt because of pressure from the US government.
*effective Tuesday 28 July, 2020, to Saturday 1 August, 2020, from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. hardware stores will be permitted to open and persons shall be permitted to make the necessary hurricane preparations to secure himself and his property including any building, vehicle or boat for the purposes of hurricane preparations.*
Whoever waits until Saturday deserves what they get.
You on point. Bodie has to be smoking something, especially calling Davis visionary. Just what Davis has done representing Cat Island all these years will be the same vision he has for the Bahamas --- Nothing.
*The Government, in a statement explaining the switch from a ban on US commercial passenger air and sea traffic to a 14-day quarantine for all visitors using such transportation, said this was designed to create “a uniform standard of treatment for all visitors” during the COVID-19 pandemic rather than single out individual countries.*
What garbage is this. Every other country determines which countries they allow and do not and we have an attorney general who trying to tell us we can do that? But like I said before, since we are no independent but just dependent on others, we should expect this.
