dc.description.abstractThe U.S. has warned the government of Bahamas of the risk of being placed on an international blacklist of countries that are not trying hard enough to control drug trafficking. In its annual report on narcotics production and dealings, the U.S. State Department says that too much cocaine is passing through the Bahamas. Other Caribbean countries mentioned in the report received more favorable comments and these include Jamaica and Haiti. In Canada, Charlie Francis, Ben Johnson's coach continues his testimony at the enquiry into drug use by amateur athletes. Jamie Asterfan, the St. Kitts doctor provided the steady flow of steroids to the Canadian athletes. Britain's Society of Black Lawyers is calling for the resignation of Sir James Miskin, the most senior judge in London on racist remarks. A report by the National Association for the Care and Resettlement of Offenders also noted that more needs to be done to eliminate racism and discrimination from Britain's criminal justice system. In health, a special clinic will soon be open at King’s College, London to deal with Britain's five thousand sickle cell sufferers, a disease that particularly affects Afro-Caribbean people.en_US
