According to Glenroy Soso Cuffy, a member of the United Workers Party (UWP), the absence of consistent job creation for the average Dominican over time resulted in financial instability during the Christmas season. Cuffy pointed out the trend of dependency on government support, where some citizens receive hams and turkeys, highlighting a lack of self-sufficiency. He contrasted this situation with other countries like Antigua and St. Kitts, suggesting that individuals relocating there would experience wage increases during the festive period, a benefit which was not forthcoming in Dominica. Cuffy highlighted the prevalence of foreign workers engaged in ongoing development projects in the country, raising concerns about the underutilization of Dominican citizens' skills and abilities. He questioned why opportunities for employment were not extended to locals, emphasizing the potential these opportunities held in fostering economic empowerment and stability for Dominicans.
