Justice Dr. Irving André points out the historical context of the policies and actions of Dominica’s first Edward Oliver LeBlanc, and emphasized that throughout his electoral campaigns, he never resorted to importing overseas voters to secure power. LeBlanc's commitment to serving the people and his willingness to step down when he chose to, demonstrates a stark contrast to the notion of holding power for 50 years as has been expressed by Mr Skerrit Dr. André explains. In response to the suggestion that Edward Oliver LeBlanc engaged in similar electoral practices to current administrative actions, Justice André strongly rejects the comparison, asserting that LeBlanc's tenure was characterized by policies aimed at preserving the interests and welfare of Dominicans. LeBlanc's dedication to public ownership of beaches, limiting foreign ownership of land, and prioritizing job opportunities for Dominican professionals contradicts any notion of using unethical means to maintain power. André deems such comparisons defamatory and highlights that the current situation deviates significantly from LeBlanc's principles and values. Justice Dr. Irving André.
