Has anyone in Canada seen the Mike Bollard Show starting last Monday? He spent a week in DR, and airs clips of his visit during his show. DR is getting airtime in Canada! Short clips but great!
- Thread starter Keith&Cris
- Start date
Open Mike, with Mike Bullard
Hmmmm, seems he's not as stupid as he looks, at least his producers aren't. I can't find an email address, but there is a contact page where you can leave messages:

Just fired off my coments to Mike as follows
Dear chucklehead
As an east coast Canadian living in the Dominican Republic I resent your referal of this nation as the Dominican.If you are in the Dominican you are
1.An unborn fetus
2 Having sex with a native of this fair island nation
If you are fortunate enough to have a Dominican wife as I do then you can be in the Dominican in the Dominican Republic

putting aside "the Dominican" issue, i did not find the clips that i saw amusing.
in fact it brought to mind jim hinsch's recent post on the first page of the Egypt thread.
will bullard's 5 minute clips encourage new visitors to RD? as someone reasonably knowledgeable about the country i thought the clips were condescending, especially his treatment of, and comments to, Dominican's. who knows what impression people who have never been to the island will pick up.

Too bad that most of the TV clips one sees about the DR are the ones that portray the most negative aspects of the DR. Wasn't there some mention a while back about other "horrible" vacation clips???
Too bad that these clips DO show what some of us have been saying recently are threats to tourism in the area.

Well, I'm one Canuck that would rather slit my throat than vote Mike Bullard Prime Minster of Canada should he have the gall to run... Cretien is a big enough embarressment as it is! I looked past Mike's demeaning comments to DR people (who mercifully understood little of his cutting comments), and watched the DR countryside, and I'm even more excited about going there next week!!!!
