Growing calls for more CARICOM countries to go republic
considered” noting that “I just have
to indicate to you that you will get a
response soonest. That’s as much as I
can say at this time, but we consider
the matter important and parliament
will be looking at this motion, or the
subject itself, at the earliest possible
time.”
Fellow opposition MP Mikael Phillips
had proposed a resolution to this
effect last year but the question of
Jamaica switching to a republic and
having a local president has been on
the cards for decades, unimplemented
by both governments.
In St. Lucia, former Prime Minister
Kenny Anthony argued that the time
had indeed come for the country to
make the move as he also called for
the abandonment of the British Privy
Council as the island’s final appeal for
civil and criminal matters.
“We ridiculed Barbados whenever
we had the opportunity. There is no
hope for ‘Little England,’ we would say.
Yet, among the nations of the region,
Barbados in recent times has chosen
to be the most courageous. For my
part, we should tarry no further and
collectively, act together in unison to
commence the process to repatriate
our constitution to where it belongs,
in the sovereign will of our people,” he
told regional news agency CMC.
Caribbean L 12 ife, DECEMBER 3-9, 2021
Authorities have not really reacted to
Anthony’s urgings but in nearby Antigua,
the head of the National Reparations
Commission, Dorbrene O’Marde
said Barbados did the right thing and
Antigua should head in that direction.
“I think it’s totally important that
the rest of us in this Caribbean who
have remained as independent countries
or as colonies understand the
significance of this move. I think the
transition is significant, very significant.
Barbados has ended a colonial
relationship with Great Britain. Barbadians
have opted for total sovereignty
and they are now in a position where
decisions about Barbados are being
made by Barbadians. I applaud the
Barbadian government, the Barbadian
people, PM Mottley and of course, special
congratulations to the new president
of Barbados.”
Meanwhile, for those who were not
paying attention, the road to Monday
night in Barbados was littered with
major signals that “Little Britain” was
in a hurry to take this step. A year ago
this month, the government removed
the oversized statue of colonial era
British war hero Lord Nelson from
the heroes square, dumping it out of
sight.
And, more than a decade ago, Barbados
threw aside the British Privy Council
as its final court and joined Guyana
in taking criminal, civil and other
appeals to the Trinidad-based Caribbean
Court of Justice (CCJ) instead.
Dominica and Belize have since followed
suit even as Jamaica and the
smaller islands struggle to themselves
do so because of local resistance from
various sections of society.

“When I discovered ISOLATED STRETCH THERAPY everything changed...”
“Chiropractic adjustments were “scary” and “painful” so
I trusted my doctor and took pills and epidurals out
of desperation because living with chronic sciatica drained
the life out me.” BUT when I discovered ISOLATED STRETCH
THERAPY everything changed...
August 13 1970, Bruce Lee, a famous actor and legendary
Kung Fu hero, was told by his doctors he was never going
to be able to kick again after sustaining a crush injury to
his lumbarsacral discs, nearly breaking his back. Lee’s
from him leaving him with a devastating life sentence of
chronic sciatica...
So What! What does this have to do with
your sciatica or herniated disc pain?
Absolutely nothing and totally everything... You probably
have sciatica and you can understand the suffering and pain
it can cause. Like you, even Bruce Lee was told that there
was nothing to be done for his sciatica but Bruce Lee did
not quit martial arts for the rest of his life!
Despite the doctor’s prognosis that Lee’s S4 nerve root
and lumbar disc would never heal and that Lee would be
and strength in his leg in just 6 months! Bruce even regained
his ability to perform his signature cat-like spring loaded
roundhouse kicks with full power...
Want to know Lee’s secret and how it can
help you heal your sciatica?
Luckily, a few smart Athletic Trainers and Physiotherapists,
have deconstructed Lee’s stretching system to pain-free
flexibility and incredible power and reapplied these
principles to helping anyone at any age!

on isolated neural-muscular stretching. Stabilization straps
hold the spine safe, tricking the brain to shut off pain like
anesthesia. ACTIVE pain-free muscle contractions held before
the stretch around the painful leg retrain the nerve around
the leg, instantly releasing the sciatic nerve compression in 3

gymnast without expensive traction devices, oily expensive
massages or epidurals. It’s magic!
A skeptical Doctor in Brooklyn explains his experience with
ISOLATED “ACTIVE” STRETCHING...”It’s like what happens
if you were under anesthesia, we could put your legs behind
your head and you would feel no stretching pain or stiffness,
because the spinal cord and brain has no inpuLthe isolation
straps and active muscle contraction during the stretch
create that same perception...the muscle tone completely
I call this unique system: ISOLATED
STRETCH THERAPY...
This is a breakthrough stretching method that can help even
the toughest sciatic pain cases no matter what they have
tried already-guaranteed!
“LET ME JUST REST” – you are 100% correct! Resting helps
relieve the pain when you lay down or sit in a comfortable
position. Maybe it feels good now, but it’s doing you more
harm than good. Actually resting will make your hip muscles
lazier and weaker. Over time your sciatic nerve will begin to
lock your back even more...
WAIT! I agree with you! You tried traditional passive
stretching already and it may have failed and maybe even
made you worse off and really, It’s not your fault!
Isolated stretch therapy is nothing like
traditional tug and pull static stretching!
Let me explain how this works: )

quickly? The seatbelt LOCKS up and the more you try to force

works when you have sciatic pain, but with “Isolated Stretch
Therapy” the Physiotherapist uses precision strapping with
an exact directional stretch to unwind the stuck nerve while
One sciatica client said, “It’s like a high-performance tuneup
without going for an hour long yoga session... and it
lasted for 3 days!”
Exactly! We trick your brain to turn off the pain signal to the
active joint range of motion you forgot how to use, while
waking up your lazy leg and back muscles...
MASSAGE, ADJUSTMENTS, ACUPUNCTURE,
TRACTION, PASSIVE STRETCHING,
LASERS and EVEN INJECTIONS GIVE ONLY
TEMPORARY RELIEF FOR ONE REASON...
While I do agree that they feel really great and help relieve
your pain, they NEVER address the lazy muscles surrounding
the nerve. Again.Jike a tightly pulled seatbelt, the muscle
any of the above procedures. The sciatic nerve tissue gets
squeezed forcing your back or leg into constant stiffness,
numbness or pain.
OK! LETS SEE IF THIS CAN WORK FOR
YOU... TAKE THIS 30-SECOND SELF-TEST...

having pain, numbness or tingling in ONE LEG and the pain
does not pass the knee and If nothing has helped yet, ask
yourself these key questions, does the PAIN become worse
with: 1. Rolling in bed? 2. Getting up from a low chair or
out of your car after sitting for awhile?
If you answered yes, try this. Sit slouched forward
while straightening your painful leg. If this increases
your PAIN, you may have Sciatica! Chronic Pain and
Sciatica Specialists at AllCare Physical Therapy have

treat nerve and muscle pain with immediate relief, using
results-oriented methods that address the root cause
