DO YOU THINK GRENADA SHOULD HAVE CARNIVAL?⤵️ ⓦ〽️ GRENADA LOOKS LIKE THEY MAY NOT BE HAVING ANY CARNIVAL FOR 2021 #Grenada Legal Affairs Minister Kindra Maturine-Stewart has told the Parliament that the cancellation of the traditional carnival celebrations and the designated holiday days in August under the Bank Holidays Act is meant to keep the island safe and protect citizens from becoming infected with the Covid-19 virus. “The Bank Holidays Act provides that the bank holidays for the second Monday and Tuesday in August shall be known and be referred to as Carnival August celebrations… there [will be] no carnival and the bank holidays given to celebrate the same shall be vacated this year,” she told the #Parliament while explaining Government’s decision to cancel carnival and the designated holidays assigned to celebrate the annual event in August “I believe it will be very negligent and reckless of us as a government, as a people, if we were to have carnival celebrations as we know it for the year 2021,” said Maturine-Stewart as she referred to the Covid-19 situation in other islands where there are outbreaks of the virus.
