DEAR EDITOR,
Harmon excuses for not meeting with Canadian High Commissioner was boorish. The High Commissioner of Canada, Mrs. Lillian Chatterjee, recently requested a meeting with Leader of the Opposition, Mr. Joseph Harmon, to bid him farewell but it was turned down in the most boorish and classless manner for someone of his station. It shows, the class and deportment of Mrs. Chatterjee that despite the fact of being physically present and totally aware of who was the mastermind behind the attempted orchestration of rigging the elections when Mingo was doing his three-card trick of disappearing votes that she rose above the situation and requested as a courtesy to say goodbye to the office of the leader of the opposition. If it were not for the intervention of like-minded persons of the caliber of High Commissioner, Mrs. Chatterjee, who believes that the citizens of all countries have the right to choose their government by periodic elections via secret ballot in a multi party system through universal and equity suffrage. We definitely would have had a failed state with perpetually rigged elections. I want to surmise among the reasons that the Canadian High Commissioner, Mrs. Chatterjee, wanted to say farewell to the leader of the opposition was to have a last look at someone who was capable of stealing a whole election and fervently hope that she would never again have to encounter the likes of a similar character for the rest of her diplomatic career.
Yours Sincerely,
Reggie Bhagwandin
