It must take some special skill to be as foolish as those people who got this country into bed with this pauper woman. By now they should realise that they were conned by this snake oil saleswoman. If they had any sense, they should be feeling pretty stupid right about now. Then again, I can safely assert that they are not feeling stupid.
It would be really interesting to find out how in God’s great name did these morons pictured above that we have in leadership roles in Barbados ever meet this woman.
Who brought them together and what were the ulterior motives?
Clearly no due diligence was done. Every employer now requires a perspective employee to produce a Police Certificate of Character. Did no one check this woman out to see if this woman was above board?
But there again we heard Minister Kellman bragging at a meeting in St Lucy that people were so interested in Barbados that they were falling over themselves to invest in Barbados. Then in a budget debate, we heard the Stinkliar saying that on some days when he gets to his office, he cannot get in, people are lined up outside his door waiting to see him.
Well we done know that this is another of his lies………..we know that no one can turn up and sit outside the office of a Minister of Finance without an appointment………no security officer would allow that. Lied liars!

As someone who heads a major worker union in Barbados, and whom numbers I would assume constitutes a membership from the two rival political parties, don’t you think that it would be in your best interest to remain impartial as far as your political views are concern?
Now I do believe that there is a place for a man in your capacity to hold government accountable and answerable for refusing to honour its commitments to the workers, but it vitiates your ability to be an effective leader of workers when you spew your personal discontent at the ruling government.
Yes, I do agree that it is your democratic right to express your political opinion, but isn’t it somewhat self-defeating to do so on a public blog given the nature of your employment?
Dompey
I am not opposed to the DLP. My comments are not partisan, I just call it like I see it. I am opposed to the nonsense in which the Government involves itself and by extension this country. I am doing what the Opposition should be doing but they are too compromised to be really effective. Let me give you an example:
When Government wants to procure any good or service in excess of $100,000 it must go to public tender in accordance with the Financial Rules, unless there is only one supplier of that particular good or service. This project is valued at $700m and the Government did not go out to tender. I have not heard a peep out of the Opposition on that score. You wonder why? When they were in power, they did not go out to tender in respect of Dodds Prison. Therefore, they cannot call the kettle black. All I am doing is speaking out because the Opposition, that should be doing so, is just as bad, probably worse.
Now if the partisans, (note I did not say yardfowls) don’t want to get excellent representation because I am critical of political parties, they are free to go elsewhere. I will stop speaking out when the good Lord calls me home.

The government supporters are saying that this is a private partnership project so the government did not need to go out to tender.
Caswell, I acknowledge that the BLP did make some bad decisions but this DLP came to office promising integrity legislation which the gullible Barbadians believed. They promised to be transparent and that all went through the roof when it was found out that their leader was the biggest fraud ever. who helped a semi illiterate man raid an insurance company.
What is the common denominator in this deal?………… Darcy Boyce………..he was the one who negotiated the Dodds deal and now his fingers are all over this Cahill deal. Was he not involved too in the marina project deal as well?
Look, this DLP we have as a government does not care what we say, does not want to hear any suggestions………….they know everything and does everything right. Why, look…the worse minister of finance EVER (even worse than Sandi, then) is offering Dr Rowley advice.
What arrogance! The BLP is right, leave these morons to themselves, they will eventually implode much to the detriment of us all!

That is utter rubbish. If it is a public-private sector partnership, Government must still put out the specifications so that all who are interested would be able to put in a proposal. This is corruption plain and simple. If they were spending their own funds or pledging their own credit then and only then could they proceed in the manner they did. They did the same with SBRC and also committed this country to corruptly paying Bizzy Williams millions of taxpayers money when the year come.
Somebody needs to see the inside of a jail for these deals.

“Two years after the collaboration was announced Barbadians have been kept in the dark about agreements signed off between four rogue government ministers and Cahill Barbados”
But within 7 days from the date of its issue Barbadians have been shown details of a Statement of Claim filed in an Ontario Court against Marie Elizabeth Clare Cowan, CEO of the counter-party to the agreements.
Kudos to BU and its source of the documents posted in this blog.
Seems lie there is transparency and disclosure in Ontario.
@Caswell
You do not want to enter politics, yet you are referencing yourself as fulfilling a role that the opposition is currently unable to do because they are the other side of this ruthless -wutless government coin. You should really listen to yourself. So many have asked you to make a difference where it could count, but you are contented doing it here on the blog and in your union. You really are some shite else.
Prodigal Son
Prodgal, you’re quite right because we should leave the morons to themselves and their should yet again be re-elected. (lol) Your opposing argument regarding the improperities of the ruling government seem to lack the convincing power needed to arouse the discontent among the Barbadian masses, but you continue to run with this argument as though it is going to make any meaningful difference in the current state of affairs.
Well Done Blogmaster
Dem, as in DEM, is shitting dem pants right now.
@ Caswell
Ignore the asinus domesticus he is just braying with his simultaneous oxymoronic suggestions unable to make up his mind.
@ my Sexy Sultry One
You must understand that some people, while they will load the gun, will prefer not to pull the trigger for various reasons.
As it relates to politics I am getting the impression that Mr. Franklyn is more politician than he lets on to be but he has another objective in mind which does not reside in an ineffectual parliament and the seeming impotence associated with that process
I think we have to be fair to Mr Franklyn.
So let us say he does run and, in the face of vote buyers like Stinkliar, Fumbles and Adriel Nitwit as well as the other BLP fellows, let us say that he wins.
Three years of campaigning to win a seat for 5 years AND THEN HE IS SUDDENLY 65 and if he was part of a party movement for Change or die, 5 years will not effect change, what happens then?
People calling you and begging you for some of your $15,000 a month, cussing you when you can’t help, calling you a wicker, buller drug dealer, saying that you got nuff wumens pregelent and then you do not have a pension unless you do another 5 years, it simply does not make sense.
You’d rather be kingmaker than king and a man like Caswell would die when exposed to the Buhkvnts that line the halls of parliament and guvment.
Politics is for younger men and women who have that time on their side
The government are dealing with a bankrupt here. How can that be ???
Mr stinklair needst be be writing to Cahill asking for an explanation
This is a monumental failure of due process and the PM needs to go public with a full disclosure and retraction of all contracts with this fraud of a woman.
The prime minister will do nothing.
@ SSS re Caswell..

@ Piece
You got Caswell all wrong…
He ain’t too old…. he too damn cynical.
If you want to understand Caswell, read ’bout Jonah.
He feels that everyone is dishonest; that life is inherently unfair; that politics is about corruption; and that it not worth the effort anyhow.
The problem is that he is right.
What Caswell is missing is that while all the above is true, life is REALLY about the CHARACTER-development-potentialities inherent in participating in the lotta shiite perpetuated by the lotta brass bowls that call ourselves ‘people’.
One can develop outstanding character as a carpenter; as a doctor; as a servant; or as the POTUS. indeed, wealth and ‘success’ are two of the most challenging threats to the development of good character. ( of course the TOP TWO being politicians or lawyers – and the ‘dog eat yuh food’ if yuh happen to be both 🙂 ) ……HOWEVER, when a person can pursue their natural talents to the highest level. AND continue to enhance their righteous character to the optimum, …..such a person exemplifies the very purpose of creation and of BBE’s master plan.
Caswell just playing the ass….
However we should note his recent commitment to join with Walter shortly to BUP…..
@ Walter
You collected that plane ticket yet Skippa….?
$1.6million on a property on the market for $6.8million big question is how many other mortages or liens are on this four seasons property is she has defaulted on a second mortgage and the court docs are correct then she is esentally a person with no fixed abode. Or a vagtant
Can the government do business with a company or person of no fixed abode
There’s a mission on Jarvis street
Maybe the contracts can be executed from that address.
Seriously this is an imbassessment to all concerned
What else is out there waiting to be discovered
I wonder if her phantom investors realise what they are dealing with .
It does not matter the number of liens on the property, what matters is there is enough to question the financial state and acumen of the facilitator of the waste to energy plant proposed for Barbados. Yes we write proposed and not to be built.

Bushie
You may be right about me being cynical but it is hard not to be with my exerience. When I left school, my first fulltime job was at Da Costa & Musson Ltd. Stealing there was rampant. One of my crooked bosses even tried to implicate me. When I was able to prove to my director (Peter Short) that the thief was really the person accusing me, all he would say was go back to your desk that he would handle it. Well my thiefing boss got promoted.
My next job was at the Defence Force and guess what stealing there too. Onto to Immigration, I was transferred after I reported a man for offering me a bribe. Corruption was all around and they could not have me spoiling things. My next stop was Inland Revenue. I was able to see wide scale thieving but I kept quiet because of my previous experience with Immigration.
I then went on to the Supplies Section in the Ministry of Education. Within my first week I was able to point out that the Ministry was being overcharged for work done and I was cautioned to keep quiet because the fellow in the job before me did the same thing and was transferred. I still complained and I lasted there for a month.
Next stop was the Price Control Division. Corruption there was the order of the day. Bribe taking was done openly. I was moved out of the Import Licensing section when I threatened to hit a man with a rock for offering me a bribe.
My next transfer took me to the National Insurance Office. I found corruption there from my first month on the job and to this day it continues with impunity. I got fired from that department.
I then got a job months later at the Ministry of Legal Affairs. At first I did not detect any stealing but that was too good to be true. Stealing rose to the surface there too.
My next job was at NUPW. I can’t recall a time when there was not some form of corruption going on there to this day.
Bushie, if you step in shit at every turn, what do you expect? I am not going to join them for sure and as a person who I thought was my friend said, I will stay poor but comfortable in my mind.

What he will do, either whilst out of the country, or at some gathering of the faithful, is dismiss all of the above as “incoherent noise” to tumultuous applause. He now has that down to a fine art.

“@Walter, you may find it difficult deciding on which jackass to ride through the gates of Bridgetown…….”
Fearplay,
Look how easily you have allowed Bush Tea and Caswell to trick you into believing that female donkeys (Jennyasses) have become extinct.
However, you will discover that I would have very little difficulty deciding once you offer me the choice “to ride on the back of a government minister”.
Now let me see….
Maxine is my friend so she will not throw me off, and Esther seems like she can easily carry my weight without breaking a sweat. What a luxurious choice!
Forgive me ladies, no offence intended.
In any event, 3 devils (not the customary Satan) made me do it.
LOL.
The documents posted create more questions than answers; but suggest that Marie Elizabeth Clare Cowan (MECC) is in a very difficult financial position.
While Schedule A to the Statement of Claim, which records the description of the mortgaged property, is not among the documents posted, DD assumes that it is unit 4803 at 50 Yorkville Avenue, Toronto.
Based on the documents, MECC granted a mortgage, dated and registered on November 27, 2014, in the principal amount of CDN$ 1,500,000.00, with interest at 17% pa.
The principal was due November 1, 2015, with interest due the first day of each month.
Default occurred January 1, 2015 – so MECC missed the first interest payment; and apparently most if not all monthly interest payment.
The mortgagee served Notice of Power of Sale on July 29, 2015.
The Statement of Claim demands vacant possession of the mortgaged property (unit 4803 at 50 Yorkville?) to allow the mortgagee to sell the property.

“$1.6million on a property on the market for $6.8million big question is how many other mortages or liens are on this four seasons property is she has defaulted on a second mortgage………”
The 17% interest rate suggests the mortgage to Ridgemount FS Ltd, is more likely a third or subsequent mortgage.
A Google search of Ridgemount FS Ltd. has no hits; but did turn up, http://www.ridgemountmortgages.com the site of a London, UK, Mortgage Broker.
DD wonders if Ridgemount FS Ltd, was incorporated in Ontario by the UK broker, to act as a nominee to register the $1,500,000.00 mortgage.
DD wonders if the mortgage was granted to secure a new advance or to secure existing debts of MECC. DD suspects it to be the latter.
DD wonders if the existing debts are for finders fees due to the Ministers who signed the Cahill agreements, which MECC hoped to pay from the sale of the agreement to the investors she engaged Jacobs Securities to find.
This MECC/Cahill matter gets curiouser and curiouser.
The emails from Turnaround Legal Services and Gardiner Roberts suggest that MECC was served with the Notice of Claim.
It will be interesting to see if MECC, or a legal representative shows up in court on September 14, 2015.
DD hopes that Hilton Barbados has no monies owing for her visits to the island
@DD
Not only the rate but the period of the loan for just one year suggest Cowan is suffering some financial distress.
The question is what else is ready to come out of the wood work and how many times was the four seasons residence used as securety against bills she never paid?????
The following link is interesting. The government waiving taxes for 3S.

In going through some of the old Cahill blogs I came across this in
Due Diligence March 20, 2014 at 10:13 AM #
From the Page 31 of 2013 Manifesto under Creating a Renewable Energy Revolution, the new DLP Administration will:
“Provide without charge the land and the garbage for a waste-to-energy plant to generate electricity for sale to the Barbados Light & Power Co. Ltd.”
Promise kept.
DD must have a devious mind.
He is wondering what the initials FS in the name of the mortgagee represent.
Interesting that today is 9 /11
Is this carazy lady’s 9/11????? is the house of cards finally tumbling down ?????
So the lady defaulted on a loan .on what legal foundation does that make her a “theif” right now as we speak the people of the USA is in the process of making a well known investors and developer and a person who have defaulted on several loans having bankruptcy records assigned to his name (maybe) president of the USA
Here we go again
AC living in la la land
Maybe you got some of the loan
I wonder if she used the PPA and the IA agreements as collateral to secure the ridgemount loan
I love the reasoning of the dumbest of the ACs
The BuhKvunt says “as we speak the people of the USA is in the process of making a well known investor…..”
A country which has legalized bulling and wicking, and is the Babylon of our times, is seemingly seeking to make a man who had declared “bankruptcy” its president, AND BECAUSE BABYLON THE GREAT is doing it, we in little Bulbados should do it too!
WHY DE PHVCK YOU DOAN STAN WAY FROM THE CUNTPUTER DOAH?
And we got female rabbits like you running this CUNTRY?
Obviously poor Claire is in deep financial do-do because she would have quite reasonably expected that by now some of the Bajan $$$ would have been ‘flowing’ in the form of various advances, consultant fees, commitment fees etc for CAHILL.
Wuh based on how things went with Bizzy’s desal and recycling schemes, with his Jamaican pal Butch, and with the fellows from the pier-head NON-project, she probably expected that buying this condo would have been a “pocket money” deal for her…
She is probably justifiably pissed… scorned even!!!
Woe betides those four ministers’ asses if she decides to act the part of a woman scorned, bankrupted, and embarrassed at town hall meetings…
What a story could come out if she happens to be asked the ‘wrong’ questions in a Canadian Court where perjury is a serious matter….
Looka Bushie crosses nuh…!!!
Both the interest rate and the period of the loan suggest a bridging loan.This bit and bridle type loan also suggest something worthwhile might be taking place in the interim.

So i made a statement which is true, people like you want to pick up every straw and sticks to make brick house but like in the story of the three little pigs , the only method to secure good foundation is to use bricks, straws just would not get the job done,

You forget that Bushie knows your story..?
You were always trouble….
If everybody playing cricket …you talking bout marbles;
when the men pitching – you pushing football…
and when everybody tired, and want to sleep, you talking shiite…
It was not difficult to predict your life experience in a country where stealing is a national pastime. Looka boss… If you had ended up in a job where stealing was impossible, you would have devised some scheme to show that you could do um.
LOL
Bushie once heard with his own ears, a fellow explain why he had to give up a job …because “the damn people so tight that yuh can’t ‘get a single thing’ “(steal anything).
You are correct. A lotta shit happens at ALL levels, and in response to your above question you can do a number of things….
1 – Do like Bushie and get a big whacker to clear a path through it …yuh will need a good face mask and PPE.
2 – Hold yuh nose and walk on tip-toes like David Ellis and the traditional news media
3 – get a long stick and stir it from time to time like David(BU). Best to do this from underground though – the smell will kill yuh…
4 – look for a small boat, name it ‘UNITY’ and aim for the high seas…. but it have whales out there that could swallow you whole….
5 – OR YOU COULD BUP!!! Put the shiite-hounds on the run; make them clean up the damn place; lock the real stink ones up Dodds; and scare the shit out of the lotta brass bowl petty shiite pups who just playing the ass…
You could talk all you like, Option 5 is the best by FAR…. especially with Walter and Grenville on board… anyway, the more you protest, the more you show your impeccable credentials for the job of overseeing GOVERNANCE bout here…
As Chairman of the National Supervisory (Governance) Committee, instead of the thieves chasing you from job to job… YOU will have their asses on their P’s and Q’s….
Now THERE is a job that you would enjoy…. shiite man, Bushie bet that you would even do it on a voluntary basis… 🙂
America’s Poorest Presidents: Bankruptcy, Insolvency and Extreme Financial Hardship
American presidents became bankrupt at a rate at least 20 times the national average. Most of their troubles came from real estate speculation, poor crop yields on the lands that they held, and botched and frequently highly risky business deals.
24/7 Wall St. examined the finances of all 43 presidents and found eight that became insolvent at one time or another during their adult lifetimes. Jefferson had a passion for expensive homes, land, and personal property. Madison was a poor judge of real estate values and gambled that his plantations would produce outsized crop production. William Henry Harrison had bad luck with the weather which destroyed his wheat and corn.
By the middle of the 19th century, land ownership went from being common to unusual. Lincoln lost everything when the general store he owned with a partner failed. An associate of Grant’s son ran through the former Union general’s entire fortune. The depression of 1893 ruined the value of McKinley’s investment in a tin plate company. Truman lost the clothing store that he owned with a partner.
As we observed in the Net Worth of the American Presidents, the nation’s chief executives were men of their times, at least financially. What is striking is the extent to which many were gamblers. Some, like Hoover, bet and won. He became wealthy in the mining business. LBJ made money as a cattle rancher, a risky business depending on the national appetite for beef and, to some extent the weather.
It could be argued that men who are willing to lead the nation into war, annex millions of square miles of territory or drop the atomic bomb to end a war were by their nature risk takers. Whether that is a better trait for managing personal wealth or the nation’s fortunes is for history to decide.
In today’s world would these great men be categorized as thief’s knowing their financial history
Nol they were just ordinary men for the most part taking risks and hoping for the windfall , yes they failed because they tried,
the same analytical and realist views can be applied to anyone who are willing to go above and beyond the boundaries of feeling secure by daring to step out of the comfort box and soaring above the clouds,
Many here on BU i dare say would never dare to try .
my point being that the simplistic approach of holding ones feet to the fire because of failures in one or many financial endeavors is not a correct measuring stick overall by which one failures can be judge ,
There are overlapping questions of varying degrees which at some point and time might become extremely aggravated through no fault of their own
This BU approach of amplifying ones personal problems as a negative indicator of a person self worth goes beyond the bounds of rationality given the fact tangible or intangible applications can be at work in the final outcome
Do yo really hear yourself Irene?
“…ordinary men for the most part taking risks and hoping for the windfall…”?
You cant be serious?

@ pieceuhderockyeahright,
Everybody knows that Canada has FOI and pitbull investigative reporters.
Any “dealings” with any Canadian company can be made public eventually.
Remember Mulroney, Rob Ford. See what happening to the Senators like Duffy and Wallin.
Bajan politicians should make sure that all their dealings with Canadians and Canadian companies are squeaky clean.
FOI is no joke.
@PUDRYR
You have been warned many times to ignore distractions from the yardfowls and focus on the topic at hand. Unless you like hitting your head in a wall.
Yes Sir i am serious and my name is not Irene ! you ole retard demented soul ! there are many investors who have fell on hard times wipe their feet off and start all over again Donald Trump is among one of the well known and having several judgements attached to his name, Again just putting a blame above what one knows are the causes is as igrunt as one can get,
why don’t you criticize the listed presidents who have travailed a path of incompetence !high flying lifestyle gambling and losing but yet managed to received redemption and soared to higher and better heights,
Yes sir for beneath all the failures they managed to become successful in the administrative duties of one of the most powerful countries in the world, Think on those things .

Caswell Franklyn
I am quite sure you meant well by reporting the amount of corruption you have witnessed or have been accused of during your sporadic employment, but there is an old saying that one ought to choose his or her battles quite carefully sir. Now Caswell, I am not unhearing of your concerned as someone who stands for right in the workplace, but no good could come of it as being the lone whistle-blower because you will be labeled a snitch by the employees as well as management. How could an employees trust a person of your moral correctness, fearing that you will report them if their so much as to put the company’s pens in their pockets by mistake.
Nonetheless, what I am about to reveal shouldn’t be taken as an indictment neither as an affront to your character, but the chronology of your employment leads me to concluded that you have had a poor work history in the past, and for a good reason because your efforts in highlighing the wrongdoings in the workplace had gotten you labeled as a snitch brother.
Moreover Caswell, you should have concluded as a young man that there is no such thing as an ideal world neither is there an ideal work environment, and that corruption will forever be part and parcel of the human endeavour.
In other words: when planning any human undertaken one must do so with the Devil in the details that’s just the nature of the human affairs. And also bearing mind that the Devil will be at my every worksite, so the question then becomes: does it worth the risk of being fired or being labeled a snitch in the face of reporting the little corruption which accompany all employment?
And lastly, there are those persons who counts themselves utopian-ideologues (not excluding you Caswell) who think the it is their calling to return the perfection to an imperfect world and that’s quite okay.
But once their are prepared to deal with the consequences associated trying to be the moral arbiters/ whistleblowers in what is an unseemingly immoral and corrupted world.
Now I am not saying that one ought to surrender his or her morals in the face of wrongdoings, but one has to be circumspect with respect to the battles one chooses to fight I hope.
Caswell Franklyn
You my brother reminds me of my wife, but not her sexual, sensual and feminine qualities, but more of her idealist approach to life.
