DLP sets eyes on Marigot

Officials of the Dominica Labour Party (DLP) in Marigot say they have started putting measures in place to make sure the party wins the constituency in the next general election.

The Marigot constituency is presently held by Political Leader of the Opposition, United Workers Party (UWP), Edison James.

A release  from the Chairman of the DLP Marigot Constituency Association, Aurelius Gordon, said the association will be highlighting some of the projects implemented by the party in Marigot recently and has thrown its full support behind Prime Minister, Roosevelt Skerrit.

“We do pledge our solid support for our government headed by our dynamic and  beloved party leader Hon. Roosevelt Skerrit,” the release said. “The Marigot Constituency was once represented by Hon. Wills S. Stevens, a founding member of the Dominica Labour Party who is the Father of  Marigot’s  development.”

The association said it intends to highlight 11 projects which were implemented by the DLP. Some of them include, the Melville Hall Airport Rehabilitation and night landing project, major road development project from Melville Hall to Canefield, the Melville Hall Fire Station Project, the North East and Concord Water Development Project, the completion of the North East Comprehensive School Project, the ‘Yes We Care’ program in Marigot, among others.

“We therefore pledge to do everything possible to, once again, return the Marigot Constituency to Labour,” the release noted.

But James appeared unfazed by the DLP’s intention to send him packing. When contacted by DNO he only said that if he was the one writing the release, he would have added “we pledge to ensure in the shortest possible time that everyone in Marigot, including teachers, can afford to put electricity in their homes.”

“And that is my response,” he said.

    You guys go ahead and laugh but understand this – winning that constituency is not only dependent on uwp votes. You forget La Plaine?

    DLP has unlimited funds and zero conscience. Also, Labourites and freedomites just dont care what Skerrit does leaving the arena wide open for Skerrit to do whatever he wants including illegal, unethical and immoral strategies.

    DLP must win Marigot to ensure once and for all, the death of opposition in Dominica. That and the complete demoralization of Dominicans providing years and years of wide open spaces for DLP to suck this island dry like the blood sucking disease-ridden vampires that they are.

    Mr. James, may God be with you.

    Mr Gordon you have every right to support the party of your choice. But there is just one question I would like you to answer. Is Dominica better off today than it was ten years ago? Its only a blind person who cannot see the deplorable level of existence which some people are experiencing on a daily basis. It appears that you have now become a part of the CSN network. Corruption, skullduggery, and nepotism. The present government paid for my studies and Im grateful to them but that does’nt make me blind to all the nonsense that is going on. My advice to you sir, never call a spade a machete.

    Gordon for marigot. great news. Are you readers aware that there is one in china studying maxism and politics to contest the Kalinago territory constituency? THis is surely selling an end to the UWP. TIme to rest Mr james. pass on the baton. Forward we go

      Are we having a personality contest or are we looking at the years of the DLP in power and what they have not done for M’got what did Pat Steven do for us and let’s talk about corruption isn’t it against the law that any one who is a civil servant cannot run for election while in office isn’t Gordon a civll servant isn’t he a teacher at the Comprehensive High School.
      Sorry to disapoint you but it is not the end of the UWP because new energy is flowing thru stay tune.I’m surprised because we have discussed the direction in which the Island is heading but I guess money talks.

Save your energies folks because you blues have many more years of the DLP reign to deal with!!!!!

    Not even FREEDOm that want to join up with UWP. They rather redevelop their party and staying in opposition than winning any elections. So Uwpwee is on its won.

    I am fed up because We uwp are not ready. Its like a fluke party of 1995 but trust me Dominicans don’t like UWP nor its current leadership at all. The DLP is nt perfect but they are moving Dominica forward , that cannot be disputed. You can see that all over the place projects projects all over the place. Its only the blind cannot see. if we are for Dominica’s development we all have to admit that Skerrit’s DLP if working really hard for the development of al our people.
    I am one proud Marigot person but as I look around I realize that this government is even trying its best for marigot and this is what that is triggering a new spirit for labour in our community. Its so easy to see. many oersons are speaking openly and positively about the DLP and take a walk in marigot and you will hear them. The UWP has lost a lot of key supporters and that will soon transcend into support for the DLP and they way things are looking; it seems that labour does have a reasonable chance to win an election there.
    Best wishes to you DLP in Marigot and I know with Gordon involved there will be a great swing towards the DLP. I even hear that an EARL may run in Bawi, So its looking like labour really wants to win 21-0; its not impossible.

      It’s impossible because I dont know which M’got village you a speaking about because our folks knows better and it doesnt have anything to do with James because he is not the party it’s all the people who believe in taking back the Island and making it work for all so when you think or speaking out make sure you know what you a saying because if the DLP wanted to help that village it doesnt take 12years of doing nothing and because election fever is in the air they are trying to come into M’got with gifts you can fool some of the people some of the times but you can never fool all of the people all of a times.
      DLP will never make in roads in M’got and it’s not because of James it’s because of the smart people who cannot and will not allow themselves to be bond to a corrupt party and brother you know that to well Take all the hand outs you can get but remember what made us great it was the bananas our parents made it worked and they were proud because at the end of the day they had money in their hand to be able to feed their children build a house send their children to high school what is their today what do we have and that’s why we need to stand up for M’got the time have come to turn it around not just for M’got but in all villages
      D’ica have have been goning thru too much to continue on that path.
      I find James to be a very well educated well spoken and dont hide how much he loves D’ica and care for all the people and I give him credit for that I wish him well and to the younger gerneration I would encourage you to take a long hard look at the men in power now look at their policies and ask youself couldnt it be better for all of us and now look at those who will be running and more to come and when you do that you will understand that you will be the ones with the power to change the landscape of D’ica for the good and it haven got much to do with hand outs or gifts of any kind it’s about integrity and being a good patriot.

      how is this development for our people, when every major project held by government is being undertaken by Chinese, moreover has anyone stop and take a look at the demographics? we live in a country where unemployment is at depression rates with over 25%. so I would like to know how is this development helping or is in the interest of we Dominicans?

    bring it on Sir Gordon. Its about time we get someone with nuff brains to remove Eddy. Trust me we are fed up with all of those negative that bringing a big blight on us. Young brilliant Gordon is who the people want to guide them . I am so excited and some people are scared because they see change is coming. Eddo doesn’t want to make wayfor younger folks. double L wants to run marigot but dat man don’t want to give way to yutes at all and there is even talk about double L thinking of trying Wesley and they might try to get rid of the other SenoBazil. I even hear that the Pm going to offer the senator some scholarship; so if dats so Double L might try to contest Wesley. Trust me Roso people aint want Double L at all . he stands no chance winning there.
    So welcome on board the DLP winning Ship Sir Gordon. We know you are competent and very very wise and fully over educated. Its freash new progressive ideas we need in Da and Marigot and Sir Aurelius Gordon has all of that. Why is it that UWP cannot attract NEW EXCITING COMPETENT TRUSTWORTHY BLOOD ? I even hear that it have BIG dlp CROOK planted inside UWP and giving confidential information to Skerro people.
    Well dats UWP people dats y DLP launch their manifesto for them in 2005 la la la and 2009 they had no manifesto….
    So Mr. Gordon we there with you. Those meetings had been very well attended so you can well imagine what will happen later. Its Sir Gordon dat have brains! Some people need a refresher course what they learned in the 196o’s cannot be applied to modern day Dominica.

    I am so very proud of one of the brainiest Marigoian to get fully involved in Labour Pary in Dominica and Marigot. Mr. Aurelius Gordon is a brilliant man with a heart for the poor. he has molded so many young people and is not egotistical nor self centred nor arrogant nor thin-skinned. he taught many of our kids and has made a tremendous difference to the lives of many. So many parl reps are into politics to fill up their bank accounts but Mr. Gordon is about helping the porr out of poverty especially by enlightening them with proper education. So many kids have gone overseas to study thanks to the foundation provided for them by Sir With Love Aurelius Gordon.
    I am with you all the way and so many calls are being made al over marigot about the great stance/decision you have taken to become part of the developmental team. People of BAWI don’t trust our parl rep and its being alleged that he controls their leader and does not give young people a chance. Some people just need to clear the way for younger brighter leadership who can deliver with honesty and sincerity and brains.
    CLEAR THE WAY FOR MR.GORDON. HE IS THE MAN FOR US. FRESH NEW DISCIPLINED PROGRESSIVE GOD FEARING BLOOD RESPONSIBLE MAN…..WE IN THAT WITH MR. GORDON. MARIGOT IS ON FIRE WITH AND FOR SIR GORDON.

    ITS REDEMPTION TIME AND SO MANY OF US ARE FED UP WITH U KNOW WHO !

    Comment rating does not change the truth. DNO, you are quite aware of the tricks of the UWP clan and that is why, with three seats, they believe they are still in Government, after being kicked out since 2000 for corrupt and devilish practices. We will see in the next elections.

    “we pledge to ensure in the shortest possible time that everyone in Marigot, including teachers, can afford to put electricity in their homes.” Does this statement suggest that electricity is not available in Marigot? Since you seem so incapable of understamding simple english I’ll explain. What Gordon is being asked to do is say that his new party will make work available so that people in Marigot will be able to “AFFORD” to electrify their homes. In order word provide jobs and or opportunities for people to work. I hope you understand.

    Being from Marigot and knowing this region for the past 5 decades, it is interesting that the current government fail to see the arrogance in their approach.

    Their orientation assumes that the average ‘Marigotian’ [non-pejorative] cannot decipher their disdain for a generally brilliant sector of the Dominican Electorate.

    NONE OF THE “DEVELOPMENTS” listed has direct benefit to the community. As a consequence of the gravest error (failure to carry through with greater Air Access) perpetuated on the Dominican Populace, DLP had no alternative but to develop Melville Hall. The Fire Station, Road Project etc are all part of the package and have little to do with Marigot. It has everything to do with a meager attempt to correct an almost irreversible, non-recoverable error in judgement.

    I have been in the island yearly for the past several years and contribute the economy (throug direct employment) despite being away from the island.

    Here are some key Questions that DLP and their supporters need to answer about MARIGOT:

    1) Why are the village (Marigot) roads and, more importantly, the Feeder roads in such disrepair”?
    2) Why are the sidewalks overgrown?
    3) Where is the Welcome mat for Foreigners and returning Dominicans who arrive via Melville Hall Airport? The unappealing shacks that Visitors encounter once traversing the Melville Hall bridge are a disgrace!!
    4) If they are committed to Education, explain the education failure in the largest North Eastern community and the North East (in general)?
    5) Why are individuals occupying ‘Government of Dominica’ land at Londonderry and areas previously purchased by the Government of Dominica?
    6) Why do visitor feel “Unsafe” in beaches that we enjoyed as children? Is it because the current administration and their most ardent supporters have benefits from being in power while the rest of the island languishes into oblivion?

    BTW there are no significant means of Foreign Exchange in Dominica, yet government ministers and their supporters seem to be doing just fine.

    Marigot generated 10s of Millions of Dollars in Foreign Exchange for the Island in the 60s-80s!! How is the government planning to restore this great community? Road to “Elswhere” won’t achieve this.

    One final Comment: The Marigot hospital is in a Deplorable State. This is an area that could experience significant Trauma. Yet, these brillant DLP intellectuals did not envision that, like the Fire Station, the Marigot Hospital should been part of Airport Development.

    Good Luck Mr. Gordon! Explain to the suffering Marigot Populace how individuals in the Labor Party who were barely able to pay for their ADLs 10 years ago are now Multi-millioners

    If Our Marigot people are not even open-minded enough to accept a young man from our village who is challenging our present Pal Rep Edison James who has been Pal Rep for over 25 years then we are not ready yet; we are really not ready yet. How do you call that “A Dictatorship?” The young are supposed to take over from the old and its not happening are we just too relaxed and cannot do better? Is it only the PM’s office that can be deemed “Dictatorship” This is not just a question for Marigot people but all of Dominica. We talk about how educated we Marigot people are are;common scene overshadows that now)

No one is saying we are ready to develop marigot so i conclude that we may not be ready yet.. :-?

    When someone like Sir Gordon can throw his support behind the DLP it says quite a lot, as to what is really happening on the ground and behind the scenes in Marigot. I heard the talk on the grounds and there is even more to come. Its evident that there is a ground swell amongst the youth and young intelligentsia in this Constituency and also the elderly who are returning to Stevens Party.
    Gordon is no nonsense and is embarrassingly bright and thoroughly influential and competent. He will cause the tide to turn in DLP’s favour in Marigot come the next election.

    Gordon means well and he will make a serious difference for the ruling DLP and with him involve in any capacity they will win that seat.

    I have never voted workers. I have always voted DLP and voted for Mr. Skeritte in the past two elections. However, enough is enough and this time around, for the sake of Dominica that has sank in serious trouble, I am DEEP BLUE WORKER!

    I hope UWP does not allow this article to force them to spend money where they don’t need to spend their election money. I would like to see workers zero in on the following constituencies:
    Colihault, St. Joseph, Roseau North, Roseau Central, Roseau Valley, Soufriere, Delice,Grandfond, Castle Bruce, Wesley and to a lesser extent,the Reserve. Marigot and Salsbury are rock solid and they don’t need to worry. All 14 are up for grab and workers sure can recapture those they lost and win some new ones. Forget Vielle-case, Paix Bouche, Possie, Mahault, Grandbay etc. Yes, contest them but don’t spend too much there.

      It is funny that you would say that because when I look around Marigot and compare it to many other villages in Dominica, they seem to be doing a lot better. I see a lot of progressive young people that are trying to make things happen by opening businesses and so forth. Crime is not an issue like other parts in Dominica. So, for you to say that Marigot will remain in the dogpound, if they do not vote labor. The dogpound is not bad after all. If you believe that a village should suffer because they do not support the winning party, I suggest you educate yourself. Maybe your winning party can assist you with a scholarhip.

    Is it a coincident that on Thursday night during the UWP political show, Mr. James informed his supporters and Dominicans by extension of his party’s plans to address the unemployment situation facing the 2000 youth as he referred to the young people. All of a sudden, after thirteen years, comming out of the woodwork is a sudden interest in the Marigot people by the Labor Party. Salisbury and Roseau constituencies should take note.

Since you seem so incapable of understamding simple english I’ll explain. What Gordon is being asked to do is say that his new party will make work available so that people in Marigot will be able to “AFFORD” to electrify their homes. In order word provide jobs and or opportunities for people to work. I hope you understand.

    Gordon, do not allow this onslaught to bother you. I am sure you expected it since you you have studied the UWP and their no-good strategies. The only thing that Edison James attempted for Marigot was a Housing Scheme by the sea which did not go beyond the rusted steel frames which stood there as a testimony of his failure. He is lucky that the DLP removed the shame from his eyes and that of the Marigot people. In opposition he has given no support to the programmes from which the Marigot people have benefitted.

    • April 13, 2013

      ” The only thing that Edison James attempted for Marigot was a Housing Scheme by the sea which did not go beyond the rusted steel frames which stood there as a testimony of his failure”(Wesleyman).

      At least I have to give you credit for trying to express yourself in the English language, unlike the rest of the dunce people babbling.

      With that said, I need to tell you, while you believe Edison James may have neglected his village, you should appreciate the fact that he gave the people of Wesley a Secondary School, which includes a Sixth-form college, in addition to a clean water supply which runs to homes and the streets of the village.

      In addition to that The International Airport was about to be built in your backyard, in Wesley, the project was in its first phase, the School is proof of that!

      I know I will be hated for saying this, we all should appreciate that we were schedule to get more from than even him getting for himself and his village of his birth, if the If the Coalition government did not chase the people who were on the island from Trinidad to perform work on the building of the International Airport, I am sure if you are not an old washed up old man, you might be making a living from the airport, and Wesley may be a very different place to what it is right now.

      Okay, so Carbon declined to contest the election, the people of the village threw their support behind my biological cousin Gloria Dods (Dodds) Shillingford, indeed who’s late father Jonathan Dods is my was my uncle, and my late mother Yvonne Dods Robin is Gloria’s aunt.

      I ask you Sir Wesleyman; what significant has my cousin Gloria done for the village of Wesley?

      Nothing; absolutely nothing!

      She is one of the worst to represent Wesley in a long time! Even under her nose the school Edison James another biological cousin of mine gave to the people of Wesley was left to deteriorate into the worst dilapidated state while Gloria lived a few hundreds of feet away from that School.

      Courtesy she has none, I sent her a letter via my sister Barbara who died the early part of last year, somewhere in February , my late sister told me she handed Gloria the letter, she simply put it down without even looking at it, I know for certain she probably did not read what is in it because I did not get a response from her.

      Mind you Gloria is also married to the son of my aunt Viola Joseph, Ashton Shillingford is not related to her neither near nor far, but this just goes to show you what politics can do to the mind of people, when they are in politics, and hold some power, they get amnesia , and for get even the names of their own family.

      When she ran, I advised all of my family in Wesley to give her their support if for no other reason because of the family connection, I could have told them to support Edison James candidate, perhaps I should have done that.

      I know the issue is not about her, but she is a member of the ruling government, however, you Sir, Wesleyman and Wesley has not gained anything from her representing our village, but you are certain in James short tenure, Wesley was about to benefit big time.

      Note: my comments here is not an indication that I am for one political party or the other, but sometimes one have to become the equalizer when balance is tipping too far in a bias way!

      And I do not care who the heck you are in Wesley, perhaps you might even be a relative of yours, if I return anytime soon do identify yourself no love lost, and even if I am harsh on Gloria, touch her not in my presence, cause you will have to deal with me.

      Politics has nothing to do with my personal life, and relationship with people especially in Wesley.

      Marigot and the environs had perfectly good roads constructed under Edison. Farmers could drive to their farms on good and proper roads in places like overgutter, all the way around and exit at Pagua, so stop with the lies and propaganda. He started the housing scheme, it’s the current government who failed big time to complete it out of spite. Open your eyes and talk straight. It’s the incompetent labour party’s fault the steel frames stood there untreated, unused and rusted.

    The DLP M/got Association’s intent is to highlight 11 projects implemented by the DLP government, hoping that they will win the next election in Edison James’ constituency.

    I think the Marigot people are far wiser than what Mr. Gordon thinks. Has he ever addressed the 13 million dollar Hotel/Motel Holiday Inn, that was specifically destined for the Melville Hall Airport according to the Gov. of D/ca and Morocco, but went to Ports Mouth?

    Without considering the in-your-face corruption, lies and deception, to include achieving the ends by all means is an insult to the Marigot constituency Mr. Gordon. Sir, please call a spade a spade and support what is right!

      For Marigot to receive development projects under the DLP government, it must elect the DLP? I thought the government was for the whole of Dominica and all Dominicans

      Jaso I think Mr.james loves Marigot and Dominica I really do think he does. Maybe if the party was just made up of him alone it would be a different story. Today, UWP has no backbone or solid foundation; since they(his party members) disrespected him in so many ways.They made a member leader who had to run from Dominica among other things.Members of the UWP could not even see his worth. In addition Edo’s time has been completed 15 years ago. Marigot need young vision to seriously a-line us with what’s going on in the world today and as a matter of fact the rest of Dominica and so we need a person who understands that and can line us up again. I don’t think Edo can do anymore he did his part when he was in office.It’s a new day. We need leaders in Marigot who will not just look to the past but more importantly to the future. For example,instead of complaining about the Hotel that was supposed to be built in marigot which was built in Portsmouth Instead, we need a leader who will unite and Raleigh the people of marigot to capitalize on what Marigot already have in place to build marigot. Marigot has so many things in place to build on but there is no vision (we have the only Airport on the Island) cane field doesn’t count.can you believe we still complaining about not having the international airport after the Present Government built a new one in Marigot? we need some one with Vision. I think Gordon can Take the Baton from Edo here with all due respect to Edo.

    Aurelius who? Pardner, did they give you the text of the release to read or did you pen them yourself? Didn’t you understand that those projects were not specific to Marigot? All these things about Mellville Hall airport would have sufficed if the airport was in Grandbay or Colihaut. The NECS is in Wesley and there are “yes we care” programmes all over the country. So, Mr. Aurelirs, what specifically can your kennel claim to have done for the people of Marigot?

    • Sammy
      April 12, 2013

      Sounds likes Aurelius does not even know what he talking about. BUt I have to say let the projects begin. I do not think that the people of Marigot will refuse those projects at all. So If Aurelius going to let the Melville Hall Road project and the NEC fool him, then he is on his own. I would like to see some things being specifically done in Marigot to better the lives of the people there, and I do not mean just walking around with a camera at old people homes saying “We Care”, then put is on GIS. Marigot people are not moved by video ups and photo ups.

      • April 12, 2013

        I’m proud of how the Marigot people think they know when something is fishy and they dont take part of it corrupton is rampit why would they want to be a part of such a bnunch of guys from what I can see DLP will not be able to plant any seed in that Village they are seasoned. Gorden knows that so why he believe he could do any better than Baptiste the party should have a debate between both of them and then make a decision which one should go up.
        I would like to see a debate between Mr.James and Mr.Gorden on the issues and who have the best plan for moving D’ica forward it just cannot be about M’got.

      Marigot people need to run after Aurelius in their yard.

      One thing I do know, Marigot people are one of the hardest working people in Dominica. I remember UWP days when bananas were booming, the people from Marigot put their hands in the soil and planted, reaped and sold. I had never seen more new pickups on the road from the north, houses were built and children went off to study in grand style.

      If DLP has an agenda to empower then I would say, at least let’s hear the plans, but do not come with your under house economics of giving a man a fish for a day. The people of Marigot do not need handouts.

      The DLP has failed the people of Marigot and by extension Dominica miserable and they MUST be voted out of office come next election.

      • April 12, 2013

        We need people who put M’got Village and other Villages before personal ambitions notthose who believe they know what is good for them
        M’got folks like doing the right thing they need better educational systems, sport field, road to their garden one of the things that they do very much they need a community centre, they need the housing situation resolved a hospital in full swing that covers the village and those around, proper water system we talk about night landing that is not the answer for bringing tourist into the Island we need a better airport, what about the selling of passport and what is the money used for does M’got have any project that part of the money paid for ect
        M’got is a village that knows and refused to stand for corruption of any type why would they want to change now and even if Mr.James wasnt running it still wouldnt be the DLP candidate so Mr.Gorden you have to clean house before you come to the people and ask for their vote your party have contempt for M’got and you know that see all the educated folks in Govt is from M’got and is the banana industry that send us to school.
        I just ask others to respect you and your party dont get into personal act stick to the facts but I will tell you you will have a difficult battle to win, by the way we had a man in M’got who used to say vote for everything else but dont forget what is best for M’got and the whole Island.
