To our beloved Dominican nation at home and abroad:
At this time all decent and honest Dominicans must make a choice to support the call for peaceful civil disobedience in the cause of justice on Dominica. I support such a call.
The question of the hour: Do you stand for the freedom and prosperity of the Dominican people or do you stand for tyranny, lawlessness, and thievery?
All honest and right-thinking people of goodwill must stand decisively for rule of law, freedom, and democracy on Dominica.
We are at the 11th hour for democracy on Dominica. Why? In a startling turn of events, just last week the ruling regime has rejected the recommendations of Caricom, the OAS and the Commonwealth to ensure electoral reform.
This OAS, Caricom and Commonwealth mission was invited into Dominica. They met with the government, opposition and civil society. They made their recommendations in a sober and balanced fashion without fear or favor.
The report of the OAS, Caricom and Commonwealth mission was not paid for either by the opposition or some hired accounting firm as we have seen in some reports of dubious value in recent times.
The attorney general of the regime, Levi Peter, is reported to have said that the recommendations of the Caricom, OAS, and Commonwealth were unacceptable.
Why should the regime fear electoral reform?
The masses of our freedom-loving people and our allies at home and abroad must pressure the regime to do what is right and just.
The regime must ensure electoral reform on Dominica.
If the regime denies electoral reform as sought by the law-abiding and freedom-loving international community then this regime will be held accountable for any disorder, loss of life or bloodshed that erupts from their failure to adhere to the internationally accepted customs and practice of democracy that our Negre Maron freedom fighters, our Kalinago warriors and our other ancestors such as Pierre Colaire of Laplaine gave their lives for.
We want peaceful protest and we demand change now. We are peacemakers. We have served the best plans and projects of all past and current governments on Dominica. We defended and aided Prime Minister Skerrit in all the good he did or sought to do. When disaster struck Dominica over the years we spared no effort to aid our kith and kin. When some people condemned us as Labourites we had no shame in defending the noble legacy of the Dominica Labour Party that brought the masses into parliament and worked for social justice. We have worked tirelessly and relentlessly for Dominica all our lives. We are political tribalist or aimless partisans who blind ourselves to the truth. We shall never engage the selfish behavior of some shall eat all instead of all shall eat.
Those of us at home and abroad who associated with the Dominica Academy of Arts & Sciences or Rebuild Dominica have never been anti-government or anti-Dominica. Indeed, we are pro Dominica patriots who want to see a free, prosperous and law-abiding nation. We sought to gather all our human resources, our true wealth, in a noble endeavor to build the common wealth not wealth for some. We are non-partisan and not members of the United Workers Party – though many of us do support Team Dominica as a platform to unite all Dominicans – regardless of party affiliation – in honest development endeavor.
We are not political tricksters, acrobats or talkers. We are honest development workers and educators who want better for every Dominican man, woman, and child wherever located.
We are not the ones who brought our state into the company of foreign diplomats representing our beloved nation who were mafia elements, money launderers, the arrested Nigerian Allison Madueke that nation’s Minister of Oil who stole 20 billion, Ng Lap Seng arrested in New York by the FBI and convicted for bribery of United Nations official and the Iranian swindler Alireza Monfared arrested by Interpol who stole 2 billion. These criminals were not appointed by true Dominican patriots who love and care about Dominica. Yet they were representing Dominicans overseas. Why?
Today when patriotic Dominicans speak out they are hounded, disparaged, abused and arrested.
We will not allow for the continued abuse, arrest on bogus charges and intimidation of our people by the regime.
This is a time for men and women of courage to stand for Dominica. This is not a time for serfs, slaves or those given to the siren song of comfort, treasure, and plunder offered by the new massa government that has trampled democracy on Dominica.
It was indeed the real labour party heroes of yesterday who confronted racial and class oppression to state loudly: Massa Day Done!
Today this masquerade band fronting as Dominica Labour Party has resurrected racial and class prejudice in Dominica from the tomb.
They have excavated the hateful and spiteful monster of racism and class oppression from its tomb and are hounding and oppressing the children of poor black and Kalinago people simply because they speak out against injustice.
The real labour party fought hard to bury forever that monster of racial and class prejudice which oppressed our poor black and Kalinago people.
Today our poor black and Kalinago people witness the abuse and stealing of our resources.
This fake labour party has placed foreigners over Dominicans in all important matters of state and economic development.
Our builders and contractors are sidelined in favor of foreign interests. Our builders, engineers, and contractors have complained of such anti-national bias and violations of procurement practices to no avail. Meanwhile, Hempstead Bridge collapsed last week though skilled local contractors/engineers could have addressed that problem before it was too late.
The regime has reserved power for a new class of wealthy cronies, friends, family members and foreign puppet masters – some of whom have been arrested for money laundering in recent years.
They have left crumbs for Dominicans while our economy molders in the grave.
We are treated like foreigners in our own land. Foreigners are plundering our impoverished country which is dead last in the OECS in way of economic development.
Our people have to run to Antigua, St Kitts, or St Martin to make a living. Before people from those islands came to Dominica to make a living.
With all of that must we keep quiet? No!
This is no time to hide in the bushes and show fear before the cowards who rule!
This Dominica Government and all those who come after it must know they are our servants, not our masters!
This government is duty-bound to account to Dominicans for the monies earned and not send its foul mouth and oppressive henchmen to disparage Dominicans as cockroaches.
The regime must not be allowed to arrest and destroy patriotic Dominicans when they speak out.
We honor and love our sincere and honest police officers who serve in the best traditions of the police service to the nation.
We shall protect our police brothers and sisters who do their duty and no one must touch a hair on their heads.
However, we ask all policemen to act with honor and serve and protect the citizens. Do not serve anyone whose duty is to foreign masters and a money laundering mafia who are being caught red-handed one by one.
There is no future for those who support a lawless regime. Caricom, the Organization of American States and the Commonwealth stand for democracy and rule of law on Dominica. No agent of the regime will escape the reach of international justice. You are being watched.
Every day the news is clear that a foreign-run mafia has used and abused the passport program for their greedy ends and not national development.
They have left a few crumbs for our people and believe that such crumbs should purchase our silence while they lie and abuse our intelligence as a nation.
The police must remember they are servants of the people of Dominica not servants or puppets of the Prime Minister, hoodlums, gang bangers and his foreign backers.
We shall alert the international community where any police officer or unit in the Dominica Police Service make the mistake and use lethal force on Dominicans. They shall not escape justice. And justice is on the way.
We respectfully warn the police again that they will regret it if they oppress the people of Dominica and act as the Haitian Tonton Macoute did back in the days of Papa Doc and Baby Doc.
Look at poor Haiti today Brothers and Sisters. Papa Doc and Baby Doc destroyed Haiti and Haitians had to run away from that country. They are running all the way to Dominica to escape the raging fires of poverty after almost 50 years of tyranny in that Caribbean land.
We do not want to see the crimes visited on Haiti to be visited on Dominica.
We want liberty, prosperity, and democracy on Dominica and we want it now!
We do not want any Papa Doc, Baby Doc or Doctor Doctor tyranny to destroy Dominica.
We want all true and honest labourites who believe in the legacy of Edward Oliver LeBlanc, Rosie Douglas and Pierre Charles to immediately disassociate yourselves from a regime that has misused its power and associated with foreign agents now under arrest for money laundering.
The regime has hidden things from you.
The regime has not been accountable to you, the citizens of Dominica.
The writing is on the wall my fellow Dominicans! Dominicans you must not allow yourself to be fooled by blowing horns, lighting candle, participating in carnival out of season and the circus into which they seek to bamboozle you with loud music and high-priced foreign entertainers.
Cast off the spell of idol worship my beloved Dominican people.
Take out the lagley or night wax from your eyes my dear people.
This Sunday September 29, 2019, banish the ghosts of mamaguy, monkey tricks, bribery by galvanize and foolishness from the idle politicians who have failed you and misled you.
Condemn and cast away the politicians drunk on power who demand that you must come to their office, to kneel down, cry for them, beg them so you can get a house. You are no longer slaves. Do not allow yourselves to be a slave to any party or politician.
Dominicans, kneel only to God not man.
Cast out the spell from your heads and hearts of those who mock God and make you believe they truly love God and must rule forever.
God is not mocked. God did not walk around Jerusalem anointing people with coolout money. Nor did he go on a stage, with a redshirt painted with the horns of a goat, worshipping false gods and prophets while adorned in in Gucci clothing. Liberate yourselves from mental slavery and tomfoolery my people.
How can you say you love God but spend your time chasing after women and money instead of building the country?
Dominicans today, Sunday, take a deep breath and exhale the fumes of idol worship. Your salvation is in God not man.
Dominicans, we are a deeply spiritual people. Have you not seen the signs? Do not blind your eyes to the true state of our country not let your ears to be blocked to truth.
Do not harden your hearts.
Dominicans, patriots, you must never ever put party before country.
Dominicans, patriots, you must never ever put any man or woman before God.
You cannot continue to play God by saying one thing in the a.m. and doing another thing in the p.m. What is in the dark will come to light, trust me.
Let us never forget that God runs things in Dominica.
And those who mock God ruin things on Dominica.
So verily I say unto you –
Dominicans our voices must be heard and our actions must be clear! We must save the nation from the lawlessness and oppression now decimating the best hopes of those who engaged in the independence movement.
Emmanuel Loblack fought against Massa society. He would not want tyranny on Dominica!
Phyllis Shand Allfrey fought against racial and class prejudice. She would not want an end to democracy on Dominica.
Edward Oliver LeBlanc fought for the poor and defenseless. He brought the masses into power and prosperity. He is turning in his grave to see the disgrace that they have made of the Dominica Labour Party.
Rosie Douglas and Pierre Charles struggled for independence to bring freedom and democracy. They were not the puppets or associates of money launderers. No one had to ask them about missing money. No one had to ask them – “whey di money gone?”
Eugenia Charles was never asked to account for money in overseas bank accounts. She left office with her head held high. She left a decent health care system and Dominica born doctors could work in our hospital.
Today they prevent Dr. Sam Christian, Dr. Irving Pascal, Dr. Dale Dangleben and Dr. Hazel Shillingford from working in our hospital. Dominicans have died because they have prevented trained Dominicans from using the hospital. How cruel. How unkind. How callous.
Eugenia Charles or “Mamo” is turning in her grave today to see how low we have come. Where is the decency of those members or former members of the Dominica Freedom Party who now stand for such injustice?
The reputation of our once fair country is in the gutter because of so many arrested money laundering mafias were found to be Dominica diplomats. None of the mafia diplomats were born Dominicans. Shame!
And some of you still have the audacity to cover up such crimes against our nation and the good name of our Dominica people.
Why is Paolo Zampoli a Dominica ambassador? Where is he from? What has he done to build up Dominica?
In an ironic twist of fate, it was Zampoli, in his legal action taken in New York City who brought to the court’s attention what we long suspected that tens of millions of dollars of Dominica passport money are hidden in offshore accounts. Zampoli is concerned that such monies may disappear and he may not get his share. If Zampoli is willing to go to such lengths to get what is really Dominica’s money, then what are we the real Dominican people doing to claim what is ours?
Anyway, what exactly qualified Zampoli to serve as an ambassador when we have thousands of decent and qualified Dominicans at home and abroad who could serve?
But no! The regime does not care to associate with decent and law-abiding Dominicans. Look at the choices they have consistently made to represent our beautiful nation before the entire world.
Chinese – Ng Lap Seng – arrested by the FBI in New York. Convicted and jailed. A criminal. A Dominica diplomat.
Nigerian – Former Minister of Oil Allison Madueke – arrested by Scotland Yard. The biggest thief and money launderer in the history of Nigeria. She stole 20 billion at last count. A criminal. A Dominica diplomat.
Iranian – Alireza Monfared – the architect of the biggest swindle in Iranian history. Arrested by Interpol. Jailed in Iran and awaiting trial. A criminal. A Dominica diplomat.
Why? Why? Why? Shame! Shame! Shame!
Why did the regime appoint these people as diplomats?
There may be other diplomats in secret.
We do not know who all our diplomats are because the regime works in the shadows; the dark; the p.m. not the a.m. so we do not know who else holds Dominica diplomatic passports.
Doctor Skerrit tell us now who else hold Dominica diplomatic passports? Do it for your integrity. Do it for your country. Do your duty to history my brother and give the citizens of Dominica all the names; give us a full accounting now.
Prime Minister Skerrit we worked with you and never betrayed you in the good you did. We stood with you at all hazards when you were right and now we must part with you because you are wrong in how you are ruining things on Dominica. Act soberly and listen to us carefully.
Truly, we are grateful for the good you did and we are not your enemies. When my brother Dr. Sam Christian was gravely injured in the 2018 motor vehicle accident we spoke and so thanked you then as I thanked my Brother Cecil Joseph for the assistance given. The assistance was given to a worthy Dominican citizen as should be given to all Dominicans. Do not misjudge our publicly stated gratitude for assistance so rendered as acceptance of any wrongdoing.
If today, you ask me for a glass of water to quench your thirst I would never deny you that. If someone dared to harm a hair on your head that I would act to stop that. But do not believe our peaceful disposition to be a license for lawlessness in governance or that we condone injustice.
We are a loving and charitable people who will never be reproachful or ungrateful. But our parents taught us right is right and wrong is wrong.
Mr. Prime Minister, Doctor Skerrit, you are on the wrong path. No political campaign rally of horn blowing band mauvay masqueraders, clad in red and cracking whips in our beloved stronghold of Brother Pierre “Pierro” Charles in Grandbay will serve to cover-up misdeeds. We must never mislead the masses with circuses and horn blowing out-of-season carnivals. Such is a rebuke to our intelligence as a people.
Indeed, we are your best friends because we have always fought for what is best for our Dominica. Deep in your heart, you know that imperishable truth. You know that you have not been forthright about matters of state. Admit it.
Cast-away those who surround you with flattery and gifts. By their actions, they shall bury you and tarnish your legacy. Listen before it is too late. Do not try to hang on to power at all costs my brother.
Here is another one for you Prime Minister Skerrit: Is Paolo Zampolii really an ambassador for Dominica?
How can Dominica ambassador Zampoli be suing for his share of passport sales money supposedly raised for the development of Dominica?
Is this how low we have sunk? An ambassador suing for his share of passport money? Is this how low our conduct of state affairs have sunk?
Is Paolo Zampoli still a Dominica diplomat? We demand an answer Prime Minister Skerrit.
Who will stand for Dominica under the oppression of this lawless and corrupt conduct? Are Dominicans still in charge of Dominica?
Or has our independence been hijacked by those intent on plunder and personal gain at all costs? That is the question of the hour!
We demand change for the better! We demand to know about the alleged missing 1.2 billion dollars and other monies from passport sales hidden in banks in Switzerland or other tax havens.
To ensure free and fair elections on Dominica we demand the immediate implementation of the recommendations made by the Caricom, OAS and Commonwealth mission.
We demand electoral reform! And we want it now.
Dominicans, if we do not act now to arrest the rot in our nation when will we ever learn that a stitch in time saves nine?
Dominicans never forget we have a noble and heroic legacy in the cause of liberty.
Dominicans, harken to the call and demand justice by peacefully standing strong in civil disobedience until justice is done!
Dominicans, remember that the power of the people is stronger than the people in power.
Massa day done!

Is this guy real or what he realize that job UWP offer him the chances of him getting it is gone in the wind since he did not get the UN job with DLP now he le between a sh.. and a fart now he shooting from the lip where next for him just sit back stay quiet you might get something after all is done
Garcon, what you doing for Dominica nuh? So long you abroad. I got tired reading your long epistle so scrolled down the end.
And bro…is the same you that was desperate to receive help for your badly injured brother,
The same you that thanked the hand that helped your badly injured brother.
The same you that congratulated the hand that helped you and your badly injured brother financially.
Today your healed brother is saying to the person that helped him, that he is a D__AS..
Garcon boy…..chill out……
I support DC 100% GABRIEL CHRISTIAN must understand we are living in a NEW DOMINICA.The Dominica built by LABOUR.LENNOX LINTON is buried up to his EYEBROWS in LAWSUITS,Instead of writing BS Gabriel ,should come to Dominica to represent him.
Boy I see all Red Ants out on DNO these days . The same DNO they despised for not taking sides (theirs) is the same one they are COMMANDED to take control of in their quest to spew more propaganda and spin. Tell the Dr Dr and his strategists that too will NOT work. The horse has bolted of the barn and we need three things now:
1. Skerrit to account for our !.2 Billion$$ Plus
2. Electoral Reforms
3. Skerrit and his henchmen MUST Go!
The longer he stays the more the list grows and escape becomes less likely. So hold strong Gabo and thanks for all the support from afar. You remain a true patriot, NOT a color hypocrite like the LAST DOG who said there are no houses still covered with tarpaulins in Dca. Long live the spirit of the ancestors.
Gabriel U & Sam your brother behave all you self. Be humble & what is Civil disobedience? You are trying to get persons angry especially those who do not understand. Your brother has passed in all parties & since you guys do not get what u want (lead etc) then you turn around & start hating & ranting. Why did you not fly your brother to the US. Instead you came down to Martinique. Guys you do not have any decency about you two (Brothers). Ingratitude is bad & you want LL to win at all cost so you two guys can manipulate to get what u want. You guys do not have the Country at heart but your own selfish desires. You see how your bro calling the PM names! PM won’t answer him but you see how a can of worms opened. Fellas behave all youself & it is not you alone that smart or educated. You see this thing called pride it comes before a fall. You all in this party need to come down from your high horses, educate & not use persons for your selfish end. This will not happen!
This growing pandemic affliction of crying wolf is becoming a bit overbearing.
As one one makes it a standard practice to weigh and measure all points and counterpoints, I usually frown on the raising of undue alarms and unfounded or questionable accusations. In addition, I always consider the source.
In your case Sir, your very public musings and pronouncements regarding the current administration have not been cloaked in favorability and positivity.
My comments are not intended to undermine your admirable accomplishments and stellar reputation but as an appeal to your better nature, judgment and professionalism.
Please resist the temptation to get caught up in and to go down the “Lagon road” of politics and trust that the Dominican electorate will do the right thing come next election cycle.
You and your brother are too D ungrateful, what about the DASS? Sam called the PM names instead od saying thanks. Meme bete meme pewel
Obedience is a trait of Love, which is our Life itself
Now those people are talking disobedience, with the guts of calling it peaceful-whom do they think they are fooling?
They are putting God in their thing, claiming spirituality– “Your salvation is in God not man” So who does Gabriel Christian, and his clan think they are; what kind of hypocrisy is that?
Lennox is acting like he is the biggest and tallest man in Dominica, he thinks he is untouchable; how long before he starts thinking he is a god–is this reverence to God?
Here you are speaking about spirituality and salvation, right after you, all coerced your followers not to attend a Godly Thanks Giving Concert organized by the Labor Party.
You are talking power of the people, don’t you know that the people are contented with the works of PM Skerrit?
God knows what matter is with the Government and He will deal with it on His own–not by your will. You & yours are doomed to failure!
@Gabo, Grand parleur. Mamo said ” Freedomrites and Labourites UNITE come together and BALYEE tout TWET, tratoirs, tout JUDAS, MENTERRE, COMMANDER et sa ki JALOU ALLEZ TO Monday LUST.” That is the only reason WHY Mamo will turn in her grave, you forgot to quote this.
“he question of the hour: Do you stand for the freedom and prosperity of the Dominican people or do you stand for tyranny, lawlessness, and thievery?”
Great question i stand for the freedom and prosperity that’s why i and 90% of us on island stands with the DOMINICA LABOUR PARTY!!!!!
We do not stand for tyranny, lawlessness, and thievery that’s why we won’t join Lennox and the UWP in their campaign of CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE!!!!!!!
Am hope i answer your question… lol…
As a former judge I would’ve asked the writer to get to the point. Brevity is a mark of a sound argument.
Unlike Gabriel Christian I have been on the ground in Dominica and can attest and speak truth to the politics of the day. His opinion is far away from the reality in Dominica and worthless.
Contrary to what he says there is a desire by government to amend the law to implement much of what has been recommended but it was the Opposition rather than debate who chose civil disobedience. Fixing the list then would’ve been achieved but with elections looming in a couple of months it is now impractical to tamper with the list. Once the electoral law is enforced to guard against those ineligible to vote voting and voters not voting more than once then we should proceed to the polls under the same flawed list that has seen to a change in government in 1980, 1995 and 2000.
Very irresponsible of you Gabriel ‘USA’ Christian
That’s why you’re a FORMER judge. You talk about what you don’t know about.
@Hurbert Volney..Deal with this!!!!!!
http://www.guardian.co.tt/news/volney-apologises-anand-public-6.2.382888.0f286e5e69
Now I understand why you looking from crumbs from Skerrit table.
Where you able to broker a deal to resell building material to the GOVT after Maria from an INTL entity????
Gabriel, sir, you and the rest of you are small like children who are badly spoilt. It is do as I say and answer the questions I ask or else we are going to stamp our feet, push and pull, and do everything that is uncomfortable for the rest of us–what is peaceful civil disobedience?
You should have left God out of your quest for discord and disdain in your country and mine. Your foolish mention of Jerusalem is meaningless; you don’t even know who God is.
When you disobey the Laws of the Land, you are disobeying God Himself. He appointed the people in Authority to do His work of Life for His people. He expects you all to leave matters in His hand; for He said: “No flesh shall glory in His presence”–that is who you and Linton; just flesh.
Not only that, the law-abiding people of Dominica is sure to feel the pain of what you call “peaceful civil disobedience”–who do you intend to hurt through that behavior, if not us and our Dominica?
This commentary, sounds like the rantings of a mad man. Which Dominica is Gabriel referring to? Surely not the Dominica that I live in. Gabriel you hide in your mansion with your family in the USA and support violent protest in Dominica, come down with your family to lead the protest. The children of the leader of the opposition are safe in the USA, far away from the violent demonstration called for by their father.
Dominica is being led by a man that has lost his way ..He is terribly scared of leaving office, because he has not led my country, one with so many potentially talented people, with transparency, accountability and probity.
He is a Misleader that cannot be trusted!
Whey is di money?
Whey is di money?
Whay is di money I?
Yes, but when the People in Power have brainwashed the People, the People’s power is worth nothing. That’s how communism is born.
What is up with this very long and useless epesitle are you trying to prove and show your intellect. Please. Go tell Trump. Why not move back to Dominica. Contribute. Open a school. Help the homeless. Leave PM out of your mess. What have you done for Dominica lately. Go get ready for the winter in Maryland. Please keep climate change in mind..shoot. Generation of Vipers.
The attitude of these people now-a-days is they want to just come say what they want how they see it and the masses should just jump on their band wagon, what nonense is that. The jokers party say they confident they gonna win the next election yet still they want to protest making a whole set of noise about money missing but win and deal with that, but oh oh. It is clear that they know they can’t win based on the people of Dominica voting for them so their only other option is to create chaos.
Very nice essay, but alas, the fault of Dominica’s plight is not entirely all of Doctor Skerrit’s making. The fault is with us Dominicans. Lazy, greedy, needy and dependent.
Every day, we pressure our government for free school from kindergarten to university; from free galvanize to duty free imports, medical care and non-existent government jobs. Where will the government get the money for these freebies? Beg, borrow or steal? Let us examine these options.
Begging is what it is. You are at the mercy of the benefactor until you bleed them dry or they come to the realization that God only helps those who help themselves.
Borrowing is nice in theory, but one must meet the 5 C’s: Credit, Capacity, Capital, Character & Collateral. Unfortunately, Dominica’s capacity to borrow substantial amounts, short or long-term, is too risky for most lenders. So, what’s left?
Fill in the —- blanks! We are our own worst enemy. In short, we elected a leader who’s doing the bidding for us. The…
“The attorney general of the regime, Levi Peter, is reported to have said that the recommendations of the Caricom, OAS, and Commonwealth were unacceptable”.
The quotation immediatley above is lifted from the commentary of Gabriel Christian.
Is that truthful reflection of what the Hon. Attorney General said? As a paragon of high moral, truth, honesty, sublime virtue, Mr. Gabriel Christian in his long windy support for Civil Disobedience in Dominica a la UWP has just indicated hw infair he is to the real matter at had. The Hon Attorney General’s public statement on the matter is available for all. Even at Q95. He never said that government rejected the report. He said that government did not accept one of many other recommendations. That is on the public record. Gabriel is safe with his family in the US and agitating for social disorder in Dominica. Note that, he is among the first to speak to “bloodshed and death” arising out of the civil disobedience..
What makes what this guy or any of those in opposition to the government say be the truth or that they don’t have their agender? Why should people listen and do as said when they don’t see the perception that they are creating? I say perception because that’s all it is their point of view, the same point of view that Mr Linton wants Dominicans to go burn down the country on opinion that 1.2 billion is missing.
Are you really a Kalinago,then you should be concerned about the U.S.$10,000.000.00 deceased Hugo Chavez donated to the Kalinago People If you haven’t understood the reasoning about the $1.2 billion, for which your one-man corrupt rogue regime prime mistake has admitted,then it seems like your thinking senses isn’t right
Thanks for the synopsis. I just kicked off my senior moment and realized that couple months ago You were singing a different lyrics regarding the manner in which your family member was treated during his crisis period, since you eat the forgetful pie you lost your way. In your second paragraph is hallucinating and funny, because that’s a great sentence describing you and the UWP. Why don’t you bring the prescriptions Dr. to the US to get medical care.
1979 fixed that. Noone want to be first to get shot. Noone wants to be victimized. We are all suffering and dont want our situations to get worse. So we cower and act like good little slaves. Say all what we want to say about master Skero behind his back, but smile in his face and wear red because we want the help and the hand out. TWET mentality i call it. Yes we have the power. We can actually force them to reinstate Dr. Pascal and Dr. Ricketts as they are the only specialists in their fields on island. WE CAN MAKE THEM DO ANYTHING AND PASS ANY LAW WE WANT. WE HAVE THE POWER. THEY ARE LITTLE MICE WHO WE PAY TO DO OUR BIDDING. But we like to act like we need something more important than us to rule over us. Ask the average dominican what he wants for Dominica and how he sees the country in the next 10 years, his answer will usually be full of vagueness and not much tangibility. We dont even know what we want for ourselves.
This guy do nothing but stir up trouble he always show up with some clever idea and advise then run back to the USA. After people must standup to guys like this and he also join in the money issue guys there are no money missing this is just a political stunt up to now they have not show where its missing show me the facts the list with the total and where it does not add up then I will agree but until then this is just hog wash no money missing and Christian you know that jump off the wagon.
Our people have to run to Antigua and St Maarten to make a living? You hypocrite! Why did you and your entire family run to America in the early 1980’s? You are saying all of this because you did not profit from the submission you made under the false pretense that Dominica would benefit. Is this truly Dominican?
Oh ye hypocrites, respect the wishes of the majority. You self righteous, holier than thou pretenders, save it! We the majority of the people see right through your malicious, selfish souls! We reject your call.
We stand firm with PM Skerrit, he did the work and rightly so, he will be rewarded. We do not want no lazy, sell outs to run this land. We have bounced back without the help of the Opposition and you have the audacity to ask rational thinking Dominicans to stand with UWP to instigate chaos in the Land! Get thee behind me false pretenders! We are safer with Labor! DLP, for the continued transformation of Dominica!
Let them know that we stand STRONG with our PM, cuz together WE MUST. labour, Labour, labour power all the way.
Did you HEAR LENNOX say the 1.2 missing billion is his OPINION?.This long piece of BS from you will not solve the FACT,that when we needed you MOST,you turned and BETRAYED your country.Why did you and FLOYD CAPITOLIEN fall out?because of your CROOKEDNESS and DECEPTIVE ways or what?You and your brother after spending all your young days,in AMERICA think,you can come to Dominica to run things?Stay where you are we do not NEED TRAITORS like you,we are doing EXCEPTIONALLY well .Monfared,Zampoli and the others have not stopped our PROGRESS.For your information only LAZY UWP leaving Dominica,and hundreds of FOREIGNERS are working in Dominica.Where is the CHOCOLATE FACTORY,you promised Dominica.TRAITORS.Come to Dominica to help your FELLOW TRAITORS in your Civil Disobedience
This seems overdrawn as if ranting. Now, what is going truly going in a synopsis and how may support? I live overseas.
Mr. Christian thank you My heart is breaking for my country. We must stand, what price is too high for freedom?
God help us!
Are you in Dominica? We have to stand. Most of you cannot even come home & only thrive on heresay! Are you in DA? Have you seen the progress made after Hurricane Maria? Or do U listen to smart smart (Gabu – Gabriel Christian ) who want to be in power by all means. Helps the Opposition to try to overthrow elected government. These two brothers want something just like Sam wanted so much when turned down with his ridicuoulsy figure, turned against the Government. He hopes LL wins so he can make his ridiculous demands. Your heart is breaking for your country! Give facts & not ridiculous fantasy story of 1.5 billion missing. What money missing?

The state of Dominica today is very frightening. In fact right now it is very clear that Dominica is the next Venezuela, unless we the people decide to change that. Skerrit has carefully made us poor by taking away everything we once depended on for a livelihood, so that we could all look to him. So he destroyed the farming industry, chased out Ross University, destroyed what plans he met in place for an international airport, does not want to give us election reform so he could steal our elections and he does not want us to even ask him for over $1.2 billion dollars that disappeared. But you know we are a very lucky people. I say that because these things are happening at a time when we are seeing what is happening in Venezuela today, how people have been made poor and many running out of their country as poverty and crippling sanctions are placed on the country. Luckily for us election is right around the corner to try to save Da or, we could force Skerrit to resign now!
One man, Charles savarin bring down P.J. and his gang with all P.J. defence force and still the police force.
PJ, was brought down by his own arrogance. He had his defence force to fire on demonstrating civilians, killing and wounding some in the process. It was the Unions like the CSA, WAWU, DAWU, the Employers federation, the DFP and different factions of the Labour that came together to remove PJ after he started to shoot innocent people. PJ tried to use the racist KKK to return to power, this action resulted in the death of police officer Alexander. So don’t give Charles Savarin all the credit. Today it is the UWP with people like Athie and Gabriel that are attempting to recruit foreign mercenaries like the CIA, KKK, FBI and Scotland Yard to install them in power.
ADMIN: The UWP ,nor any recent political party, has ever stated their intent to recruit the Ku Klux Klan.
For the sake of peace, prosperity and healthy Dominica needs a change. Right now we are too divided and although Skerrit is the last person I voted for, I must say that he has divided us as a people and right now there is nothing he can do to unite us because he knows the day we are United he will be out. So disunity works for him and his agenda but it definitely hurts the country. On the question of prosperity Mr. Skerrit cannot bring prosperity to Dominica as we have seen the last 15 yrs and honestly speaking, I have to conclude that PM does not want to see Dominica prosper because a prosperous Dominica will hurt his agenda. So his strategy of make us poor and keep us poor works best for him. No wonder he did nothing to put banana farmers back to work, he didn’t do anything to try to keep Ross University here and, is foreigners he giving all our contracts to. Health Care is at an all time low as if he is on a mission to just bury our people. Why would a PM close a hospital? Madness
Tell it as it is sir. It’s a sad day in DA but we shall over come some day
I wish you luck.
Gabriel, amongst others, made a very important statement: ‘ No agent of the regime will escape the reach of international justice. You are being watched.’ Skerrit and more so his political friends would do well to considers this! Excuses are not being accepted afterwards!
