Would it make a difference if you had a parent that immigrated here from another island knowing full well what evils lurked here? Would that make your share worth 50% of a real born Bermudians? What if you were a prime example of what hard work is rewarded for and had made a success of yourself….would you still be entitled to a share in the winnings? I would think that paying off the debt would be a better plan and less contentious and would benefit all not some.

““The Government will further revise the Residential Certificate policy to require those granted the right to live in Bermuda to make economic investments in the Island or to invest in the new Bermuda Trust Fund. The Fund will be set up to benefit those who have not had the benefit of historic, inherited wealth.”

On the brighter side, I do not descend from any of the “40 thieves” families so I am a Bermudian who has “not had the benefit of historic, inherited wealth” and I should be able to make a claim on the Bermuda Trust Fund

A foreigner bringing money is always better then what OBA supporters have brought to the table ( the foreigner that takes money out)
A foreigner that brings work to the island is better then the OBA suggestion of foreign worker taking a job. I’m willing to give Hayward a bly. Although I’m worried about the 90 AI workers from Arabia. Let’s see.

What an unbelievable bunch of delusional pretentious individuals at the helm. Carry on guys the icebergs are more plentiful now. Something to do with climate change I think.

So out of touch with reality, it boggles the mind.

No one ever said this government were smart …..who will just give money to live here …this government thinks we are the place that ” affluent people” want to live ….maybe 25 years ago …whoever came up with that lame brain idea needs to open the shutters and see where they live …we are in no position to dictate we should be begging for them to come
plp wrong again and again and again and again

Jason needs to do some homework by travelling to other places around the world.
He will understand then that Bermuda is a very small fish in a very big ocean.

This guy makes no sense. Please think a little bit before creating rules or laws.

How do we determine who has not had the benefit of historic, inherited wealth?

There seems to be a large amount of arrogance here. Why would anyone agree to pay into a reparations Fund when they have nothing to do with Bermuda’s history? What benefits do their children get ? Apparently nothing. Just by living here Bermuda benefits from the amount spent on the island. There are plenty of other places that offer more, and cheaper. Bermuda is not that special despite what the PLP elite might think. Digital nomads? Bermuda boasts around 500 have applied. Competing locations have in the thou=sands.
Hayward and his colleagues are totally out of touch with reality. Jobs for Bermudians are needed and this does nothing to help.

And watch absolutely noone apply for the PRC now.

This is a horrible idea, ill thought out with little narrative on how it works or how it is justified.

I’m sorry but Jason Hayward sends all the wrong messages to IB. Again.
