Targeted tourism

In today's Royal Gazette, Premier Ewart Brown was asked if there was anything Bermuda could do to encourage gay tourism. "We don't go out and encourage any sector of tourism," was his reply.

That's untrue. The Premier is forgetting about the government's African Diaspora Heritage Trail initiative, which is designed to encourage blacks - specifically, wealthy African Americans - to visit Bermuda.

If we can target black tourists, why not gay ones?
