Easter hope On the most important weekend in Christianity, which should have been filled with polished pews, floral arrangements, and the echo of choirs beneath sturdy rooftops, many Jamaicans are instead gathering under tarpaulins, in classrooms, or beneath the open skies. And still, they will worship. Months after Hurricane Melissa tore across sections of the island, the damage still feels like a raw, open wound, visible in the twisted zinc, shattered walls, and sanctuaries reduced to memory. But this Easter, something else is just as visible: a stubborn, unyielding faith.
‘Build your own road’ Tensions are high in Coral Spring, Trelawny, as residents of the upscale community push back against a developer’s plan to close a section of road, arguing that it is privately owned and warning that the move would cause significant inconvenience. The standoff between the residents and Gore Developments Limited escalated in a recent virtual meeting where residents voiced their objection to a written notice issued by the company on March 11, indicating its intention to commence roadworks and infrastructure upgrades on Canada Way and Orchid Road in the area.

Brown, who was making his closing submission Wednesday on behalf of the Jamaica Medical Doctors’ Association (JMDA) to a panel of three adjudicators at the Industrial Disputes Tribunal (IDT), said the medical professionals were just asking to be treated fairly.
