The government and Canadian officials will open discussions this week in the hopes of resolving certain commercial disputes over property purchased in Exuma.
While Canada’s State Foreign Affairs Minister Diane Ablonczy did not go into specifics, it is believed that she and Deputy Prime Minister Philip “Brave” Davis will discuss the complex Oceania Heights matter.
Last year, The Tribune broke the news that investors had complained to the Canadian government that their queries regarding a more than $52 million real estate investment had fallen on deaf ears with Bahamian officials.
The matter was brought to Canada’s attention through a letter penned by Christopher and Jane Bain, home owners at the Oceania Heights project. They told Mrs Ablonczy that the Bahamas government had even gone as far as refusing to take their calls.
