Please, the PLP never stood up for for young men and Alfred Gray was abusing his office as a minister in what he was doing. Stop the PLP rhetoric.

You do realise that East End is out of the Port area, so that really is government responsibility (BPL) and not Emera.

Airport size however has nothing to do with capacity. Marsh Harbour had the tiny building for years and it was second busier airport in country. Our challenge in Grand Bahama has been the landing fees, that scare airlines away. Until that is dealt with, no matter how big or small the airport, airlift will be a problem.

This whole article is full of contradictions. Concern about letting all the people go and only 13 made redundant. And then talking about forcing hand to reopen the airport when the airport is already open. Really, we need to stop printing people who just talking fool.

It is amazing how we go on rumours and not facts.

The many who will not agree are ignorant as they have not been involved and knowledgeable of what has been happening. As one connected with an IGO that was involved with the hurricane form day one, I'm not asking but telling you that Mrs. Smith has made all the difference in making it easier for us as NGO to work. Anyone who tells you difference is only a trouble maker.

If you need money to train people to do their job in answering a phone when it rings, or being courteous to a customer, then you have a serious problem. Maybe you need to let them go and get people who willing to work.

“Let us strip down how this $1.5bn is made up,” Mr Davis said on Tuesday. “I daresay, when you talk about donors, you are expecting donations to be made without strings attached.
.
This clearly shows the ignorance of Davis. If he knows about donors, he would well know that donors always give and specify where they want their funding to go and you as the recipient then have the choice to determine whether you want to take it or not. A real leader would have asked how things work before opening their mouth and showing clearly their lack of understanding.

In case you are not aware, it was not until Mrs. Smith took over the coordination of the relief in Grand Bahama that people starting getting help and us in the NGO world saw action happening and the red tape cleared. So she deserves kudos for what has been done since she took over. The government should have had her running the operation from day one and not in October.

It is simple people. If you don't want to pay a plastic bag fee, then bring your own reusable bag to the store. For too long as Bahamians we like to take the easy way out and make noise over the things that are irrelevant.

It was the media that placed on their headlines 1.5 billion in pledges and people ran with that rather than read the particulars where Mrs. Smith mention the P3 pledge was a loan pledge.
