The Parliamentary Representative for the Laplaine Constituency, Petter St. Jean, is making it clear that he will not be making a comeback this general election.
Speculation mounted when St Jean said last week “whether is laborites or workers, whether they want or not, I am giving them Petter”.
That statement helped fuel suspicion that he might coming back as the DLP La Plaine candidate given that St. Jean has been absent from the Dominica Labour Party’s campaign activities following the announcement to replace him.
But St. Jean said at the official launch of Dr. Irving McIntyre at Trafalgar over the weekend, that his support is entirely for the new candidate Kent Edwards.
“When I speak, I try to be clear and direct but apparently, when I addressed the gathering in Bagatelle, some people misconstrued what I said. Peter St Jean shall not be the Parlrep for Laplaine come the next general elections…The next Parlrep shall be Kent Edwards who I am giving one hundred percent support,” he said.
According to St Jean, who is the President of the DLP, the new candidate will be trained to ensure success at the polls.
“He was my student at school for three years. I caned him. I beat him and I shall train him to defeat the United Workers Party candidate Francisca Joseph,” St Jean said.
He said he is also aware that many people were rejoicing when the prime minister did not select him to contest Laplaine.
“I have said news for them. The Pepper is back and the Pepper stands with Kent so he must be victorious. I have some people who pretend to be neutral but they appear to be agents of the Opposition,” he said.
St Jean, who is also the countries education minister, said he would never be at peace knowing the UWP wins the Laplaine consistency.
The DLP intends to launch Kent Edwards on October 13th at Laplaine.

Peter,
I traveled with your brother ( the Pastor) to Guadeloupe this year.
I reasoned with him. He is a clear thinker.
We spoke many things. Your name came up.
I think you should consult your brother for spiritual direction. You seem to have lost it.
Run away from DLP, they are not your friends. You may even find better friends in UWP.Skerrit does not like you. Thank God, He loves you.
Abandon DLP and realign your thought to Ministry in the Lord. You have lost your first love, JESUS.
This is a warning to you!!!!!
After what that guy say about the party and Mr Linton we don’t want that fool close to any thing to do with the UWP.
Peter ,be honest ,tell us why you would not be at peace if Francisca Joseph wins the seat or if UWP wins the seat??? Give us the truthful answer.
I thought you were a man with testicles. You have lost them somewhere along the Labour Party trail.
am ashamed of you. I am disappointed in you.
I think even God is now ashamed of you.
will you be able to stand on the pulpit and declare the Word of God.
How do you as one who professes to be a servant of God not stand against what is wrong.
what has gone wrong with those preachers.
I am ashamed of you and the one who comes from Nashville ,the dr, to support and uphold wrong.
would Jesus uphold wrong?
you guys have lost it.
how much of the 1.2 billion did you all get.
I hear all you looking for Ambassador positions.
you all need to be truthful and honest. instead of leading the blind the blind is now leading you guys.
SHAME
well Peter, you are not going to be at peace because UWP is surely going to take the seat.
All you too…
“He was my student at school for three years. I caned him. I beat him and I shall train him to defeat the United Workers Party candidate Francisca Joseph,” St Jean said.
Dont disrespect me so. Especially as you have a history of beating man.
“I have said news for them. The Pepper is back and the Pepper stands with Kent so he must be victorious. I have some people who pretend to be neutral but they appear to be agents of the Opposition,” he said. Now he is talking in 3rd person. Trait of conceited egotistical people.
“He was my student at school for three years. I “caned” him. I beat him and I shall train him to defeat the United Workers Party candidate Francisca Joseph,” St Jean said. According to Pastor St. Jean. Those fake preachers, pastors talk boldly but not from the bible to talk spirituality to give faith and guidance. That is why Skerrit and this fake corrupted labour government must Go.
St. Jean says: “I canned him, I beat him and I shall train him to defeat UWP.” That`s the act of a devilish person, or rather this “pastor”.
If you`re a real person of faith and a Christian, then` Christianity you have failed to teach and embrace. You St. Jean needs to be “canned and to be beaten for the failure of this DLP Leader” and “corrupted Labour government you have followed for years”. Where is your decency and loyalty to talk about Bobol and hypocrisy within your failed corrupted Labour Party. You`re a failure, immature inexperienced leader and you still hang around with the devil`s…
How much was this stooge given for his late nonsensical support. He was booted out by the Honorable P.M. most unceremoniously. Don’t you have any moral character? LaPlaine is going UWP.
You have called the PM an ….
Thr Scripture text and you foolish intrelretation has no coorelation.
You Peter St. Jean is the … and Skerrit is riding on you.
By now you should be charged and convicted for felony kidnapping; “abduction” false imprisonment and battery!
No one regrets your departure; Roosevelt used you up and dumped you like an old used pare of shoe, like all the rest, he gets rid of all of you one by rather than allowing your constituency to determine your political fate.
Is it not funny that Roosevelt has fired all of you one by one exempting himself, as god of Dominica. This only goes to show you all that Roosevelt is absolutely a one man Government; you should be glad that when Dominica collapsed you you will already be off the deck of the sinking ship!
I will forever remember you for one as a teacher who gave children assignments; upon completion, you marked their work “incorrect correct” however; there parent smarter than you review their children work and found them to be correct.
Your incompetence peaked when you went to St. Martin inviting students to come Dominica to study:
Not finished:
“however; there parent smarter ”
Well, that should be “however, their parent smarter.”
So, yes you Petter the incompetent goes to St. Marten inviting people to come to Dominica to study in a junior college, which is a simple two year college I supposed.
As minister of education you should have done some research where you may have found that there must be a university in St. Marten, and if so there must be a two year college on the island also.
If not the two year studies are in incorporated within the four year curriculum.
You have been an embarrassment to our people and country, just like all the rest keeping the country down, where you have people living in both economic and mental slavery.
All good things must come to an end; you should be ashamed to be campaigning for Roosevelt, the man you claim you are supporting if he wins, and Roosevelt wins, he will nothing more than a foot boy tool of Roosevelt!
Roosevelt days are numbered anyway!
This guys must be tourmented. You are the minister of education and you were replaced by a jack … (DNO please note jack … is used in bible so dont remove) ok donkey, without the respect and dignity of a note. The PM indicated he needed change and it is obvious you were either a liability to him or not performing as minister. If you were performing that would even be worst because it would mean only one thing; skerrit cares about his hold on power. Either way it is nasty and bad for Dominica. You are now on a pulpit admitting to be lead by a donkey yet you rather see Dominica descend to autocracy. I will never understand the minds of man and you are proof of how easily corrupted a black man can be. Where are your principles and values? It is sad that men like you were educating our youth because if thats the example you set for your students there is no hope for Dominica future. The donkey in chief has a bunch of as.es/donkeys following. DNO he said it not me..
“Everything is upside down, everything is inside out in the SLP Camp
“.
The Pepper has burnt his own mouth with bonda-ma-jack so now he has to say AN ACT OF CONTRITION or else refund the kool-out he ALLEGED got to buy the new pickup van. Allu think Dr Dr giving money for free? Think again bro you better hit the campaign trail hard and watch your mouth while you paying your debt. You gave my partner a DASHEEN voelay and made SLP pay for it with a Kai – Poole so now is pay back. Want it or not you MUST hit the campaign trail as directed
This guy has no shame. After he was publicly rejected by Skerritt, now he is supporting Skerrit. Money has to be involved in such turnaround. We want the rest of the money you received for Laplaine after Maria, and there people who still living in a tent. SMH
Over the past 20 years Education has not changed in Dominica.
Yes, many have received Government assistance to receive a proper education, yet, these cannot contribute in a meaningful way for they are not present.
A vast number of our teachers are untrained, with just an associate degree.
Lets us invest in our education. Not just to give youngsters assistance to go abroad but to really invest millions in training teachers and improving our facilities. Also, to give the teachers a 50% raise.
The DLP government has not shown to be capable in accomplishing this feat.
I will not vote for DLP.
As for you Sir, you are a failure. That is why you are discarded.
Take a look at yourself in the video and listen to what you said. Pure rubbish.
I watch this guy talk and oh dear. I just didn’t think a grown person would say such nonsense. Dominica is really becoming a papyshow. I hope he didn’t get a cool out because if i was PM i would take it back 😜
DNO, just now he will tell us we misconstrued his statement about Skerrit being an a**, not a dama**!
I think Petter should just shut the he** up.
St Jean you are pitfull….You are a true embarassment to the DLP….Please refrain from public speaking on behalf of the DLP. You were not selected for reelectin for multiple reasons….Again REFRAIN from PUBLIC speaking….RUM SHOP talk is permissible
Your influence will be of no avail. You are a political reject. No sides want you. Your Report Card says FAILED.
This man never misses an opportunity to show his arrogance :
“He was my student at school for three years. I caned him. I beat him and I shall train him to defeat the United Workers Party candidate”
St. Jean just confirmed that he is the little messenger boy of Skerrit, who has been abused and rejected by his master and god Roosevelt Skerrit. So the man not in the race, not the candidate, has no value so I not wasting time on Skerrit little messenger boy, who is fool of shame but trying to cover it up like a little puppy would
“He was my student at school for three years. I caned him. I beat him…”
What a sad statement from the Minister for Education.
If children have to be caned and beaten to conform to something that they intrinsically do not believe in, then we have surely lost the plot, and in turn, whole purpose of education.
Petter St. Jean reminds me of a true son of a slave that is afraid.
“He was my student at school for three years. I caned him. I beat him and I shall train him to defeat the United Workers Party candidate Francisca Joseph,” St Jean said.
The Petter is back ? Narcissistic rhetoric as he speaks in 3rd person. but what nonsense is that. That not the same stage where he said Skerrit is not a DAMN a$$, BUT SKERRIT IS AN A$$?
What is your report card?
Omg where are you hiding? You are not in tune of what is happenning in Dominica! You cannot even understand what was done in Education. Go to class Omg and ask what achievements were made – Scholarhsip to study overseas, Now if you have children, the College is pleased to welcome them even if u cannot pay; Buses to transport school children; Woy Omg get a crash course, go visit the villages and do an interview and guess what u will learn a lot. Did u hear of the achievements of the Dominican students? And more… more and more. too much to talk about here. Go do your research!
‘He was my student at school for three years. I caned him. I beat him and I shall train to ensure. blah, blah, blah”….
Petter why you have to talk and walk like with such beligerance and stupidity like you are the undisputed provincial military governor and supreme commander of all things and people of La Plaine and the east? You are such an embarrassment and joke to folks like myself and others who hail from La Plaine.
We know you very well and we are tired of you. Hopefully this election will shut you up once and for all.
We will do all within our powers to bring peace and civility to a place we dearly love.
Thanks,
Emanuel Finn,- Washington DC
But petter, Regardless..since u entered that political arena u haven’t been at peace. I have known u my whole life, respected u, and u are not the same man I grew up admiring.
Now u come on board and throw support towards Kent. How much did they pay u? Cause when u found out u were being replaced u told ur main supporters do not follow Kent. All who came to ask u for assistance u directed them to Kent like Kent is the current parl rep. How much did they pay u for u come back as a ploy for ur supporters to support Kent?
Smh, Petter, for your own peace, get out of that political ring and get back to being the brother of the soil that I once knew. U have become an angry, bitter man. Get out fr under Skerrit n make ur way back to your church
