Nothing could be more crippling than this project going through.
No measures taken to stop this are too drastic.
Collectively we must stand against this.

I can actually picture exactly what you look like.. Bermujan standards? Can you elaborate for us Professional Bermudians what you are talking about? And about this entitlement tip you mentioned, I would like to think that Bermudians should be entitled to a livable wage in their country. When many families struggle to earn an fair wage, then have to spend $6.00 for a loaf of bread (basic foods) we should all be ashamed.
The Gov’t can subsidise 77 Million for rich folks to have a sailboat race but cannot lift taxes for basic staple foods…

I find it funny also how you mention Trump stomping on the welfare state with no more handouts… well wasn’t he himself the benefactor of a “little” $1 million dollars loan from his father?

It really is time to WAKE UP!

No it doesn’t.. Furthermore there should be no need to Parade Bermudians in front of a camera to show that you are ‘Opening Opportunities,’ this should be THE NORM..the fact that in 2017 we are ‘celebrating’ Bermudians being given an internship for one of the biggest projects that will reverberate for generations is sad. And the statement you make of them being ‘deemed worthy’ is equally telling.

Congratulations to all the interns. Canada is paying. If the Canadian Gov’t is backing a project (AAA rated) then of course they get to choose the contractor! Why would they guarantee it otherwise?!? Get on with this Airport!!!!

Most particularly, I want to extend major props to Ms. Allanette Hayward (would like to think we are related :-) ), for taking on your life in such a huge way!! Starting over again when one isn’t young is not the easiest thing to do, and clearly you are excelling! So, special kudos to you!! May you go from strength to strength!

Trump is going to stomp on the welfare state…no more hand outs…and if you think bermuda won’t feel the ripples…you better start weaning yourself off of that entitlement tip I know that…its a new world dawning

It’s time to WAKE UP!!

I note one of them is a short term internship. Would I be correct in assuming that the others are longer than 6 months. Does internship culminate in long term employment for them?
