He said, “Indeed, the proposed Constitution Amendment Bill is a kind of constitutional illusion designed to fool the unwary Tobagonian into seeing two things that are not really there – equality of status and self-determination.”

The teenager made $8.75 weekly, until one week when his pay envelope contained just 42 cents. As Eddie told the story, he returned it to his boss, saying, You can use it more than me and was summarily fired. Other than a stint in the army during World War II, Eddie, who died in September of natural causes just four months shy of his 100th birthday, never worked for anyone else again.

Boyle s contribution a porcelain, human-like figure wearing a colourful herringbone-pattern dress is seated, elbows resting on its knees, holding up its three heads. The heads, made by Aupilarjduk, seem ancient, with smoke-fired surfaces and vacant eyes. The piece is like a visual dialogue between the artists, unfolding at an unconscious lev
