ROSEAU, Dominica, Dec. 18, CMC – Leader of the main opposition United Workers Party (UWP), Dr. Thomson Fontaine, has painted a grim picture of life in Dominica, warning of what he described as a deepening crisis of governance marked by rising violence, environmental destruction, electoral concerns and growing international isolation.
Speaking at a press conference while delivering Christmas greetings to Dominicans at home and abroad, Fontaine said the season offered little cause for celebration, pointing to the deaths of 22 young men in violent incidents over the past year and what he called widespread despair among families across the country.
