Opinion: The Guardian view on Catalonia’s referendum: the Spanish state has lost

Police brutality has ignited the political crisis. Can Madrid and the pro-independence movement find a way forward?

Spain is in crisis, and its prime minister appears to be in denial. The run-up to Sunday’s referendum on independence for Catalonia made it clear that the country was in trouble.

But neither those arranging it nor those rejecting it can fully have anticipated the scenes at polling stations: police in riot gear beating peaceful protesters with batons, dragging voters out by the hair or throwing them down stairs, firing rubber bullets to disperse crowds – even striking at Catalan firefighters and jostling with Catalan police.     [READ MORE]

Has Canada lost her Identity?

– By Yvonne Sam

What does it mean to be a Canadian?

In the history of the world there is no example of a culture, civilization or country that has survived in the absence of an intact family unit.  From a historical perspective this has meant

father, mother, sister, brother, grandparents, and sometimes other extended family members.  The onset of the Industrial Revolution brought what we now know as the nuclear family-father, mother, brother and sister.     Continue reading →

Richard David is a Winner! – By Dr. Dhanpaul Narine

Richard David

He did it his way. He believed that in the end the support of the community would push him over the limit and onto victory.

Richard David fell short, but not by many. In the three-way race there is no question that he emerged as the most popular candidate. There is no doubt also that Richard won the hearts and minds of the community.

Statistics matter. In each race we were brought a step closer to the door of victory ‘on this side of the Van Wyck’ and given time it will happen. But Richard David brought us to the brink. He made us believe in ourselves that victory is not some pipe dream; it is actually attainable.

The Barbados team being treated to a cultural presentation

In 2015, a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) was signed between the GTA and the Barbados Tourism Marketing Inc., on areas of cooperation; concentrating on two main areas – multi-destination packaging and the sharing of information to assist each other in the tourism sector. This ‘fam trip’ is a direct result of the MOU.

Barbados is commonly known for its ‘Sun, Sand and Sea.’ However, members of the Barbadian team noted that the country does not have adventure packages. They were impressed with the concept of Community-based Tourism (CBT).  Continue reading →
