So this "Climate Change and Carbon Market Initiatives Act" passed in 2022,( 3 years ago..)
.is the fruition of all the $$$ Davis&Co's has purloined from the Bahamas' coffers, all the hot air he's been blowing across the globe?
We should be demanding a refund!

Davis expects home owners and businesses to pay up to $300 for the privilege of being on a "registry" of climate savers which will supposedly obligate (at least those not politically connected) to prepare detailed annual reports etc, or be fined $10,000+??
And the rewards/benefits are...?

This is how the New Day guberment does, same as the Old Day-for themselves..

So if none of these folks named here are doing their jobs…?

“The facility… is expected to be completed by Dec 2024.”
They didn’t even bother to print up an updated lie.

So at a moment in history while the Bahamas awaits the discovery from the plea deal arranged between the US Attorney and the four incarcerated and indicted former Bahamian officials for drug smuggling, money laundering etc etc., Davis&Co’s Mitchell proposes a holiday to laud the first Bahamian born PM who set himself up as the Kingpin of the Caribbean drug trade?

Who was so successful and made so much money that he obviously still stirs the pride and the ‘entrepreneurial’ spirit of Bahamians today!
The Bahamas, where our only bad optic is our murder rate!

Is there any entity in the Bahamas or abroad for which the government of Davis&Co does not owe money?

And this version of Bahamian justice is why cruisers despite what that Cooper guy keeps telling us of their outsized spending habits, spend their Bahama-time onboard.
And the US keeps issuing failing reports to the Bahamas on issues of corruption, crime prevention etc etc.

Well one would think there’d be strict safety regulations as to the training of LNG personnel, equipment and maintenance, but since this is the Bahamas where such things are forgotten/ignored once the fanfare’s over…

Let’s just pray the next time some pair of fools decides to play chicken on Mackey St, one of them thinks flammable before they land in those of the everlasting variety!!

So which institution(s) of government does Davis&Co intend to stop funding over and above those programs that remain grossly unfunded and underfunded??

Cuban nationals “would write back home to the Cuban officials..” to complain about their small stipends?
Surely you cannot believe these folks having lived under a communist regime would write expecting a favourable response from that state which is collecting their hard earned wages?

Your idealist view of communism floated over 100 years ago-and promptly sank.
For part of the reward most humans seek is the ability to feed, clothe and house one’s family and that isn’t happening in Cuba. It’s become so much worse since the US embargo, and those who can have left Cuba in droves.
That’s why these nurses work in conditions akin to bondage and know that only if they return to Cuba will they receive some, a pittance likely of their wages.
And the Bahamas agreed to this.

As for these workers being ‘corrupted’ by our ‘unbridled capitalism’, have you not been to Cuba? The rewards of capitalism are everywhere-except in their pockets.

Trump, despite promising only good times ahead, despite being the man in charge of the US economy is shrugging off the coming recession as necessary to wean America off her government freeloading.
Trouble is alot of those middle class and/or just making it Americans buy cheap cruises to the Bahamas and worse never leave their ‘all you can eat buffets’

Take away guaranteed incomes and benefits, add higher prices for everything from cars to eggs and phones, even cheap travel won’t be in the cards

Where are Mr Maura and Davis&Co dreaming up these numbers?

And let’s get real guys, Nassau doesn’t even rate amoungst the top 100 “busiest transit ports in the world”!!
