Mr.Point we can put whatever we want in place the US has no use for Dominicans and Dominica.The US have a very good excuse,when supporters of UWP told them Skerrit was selling passports to crooks and criminals,and those crooks and criminals were a threat to America security.Do not blame the US blame UWP.You remember RIJOCK and the media whore said Skerrit had sent 10,000 passports to Pakistani to be sold on the roadside.”Dominica passport for sale,buy your own today”
Reporters seem to be afraid to ask about compensation package (if any) for accepting third party nationals from the USA. We have gotten rid of the Cuban medical program and made radical changes to our CBI yet Dominicans still remain banned from entering the USA. What additional price do we have to pay to live on this earth. The sad thing is if we decide to ignore America and their visa they would still bully us. My advice to the powers that be is to stop showing interest in having a US visa as it will continue to be used as a bullying tool.
Hurricane Maria wiped Dominica off the face of the map in 2017.All those talking about Deux Branches today where were they to help Skerrit build Dominica?Those blue clowns realise quarrying at Deux Branche is not going to affect any river so they talking about mining for copper.They realise if Skerrit build airport he will win election but,build airport or not Skerrit WILL win the next election.UWP have a dishonest and corrupt record in office.
