A Petition for Carriacou & Petite Martinque’s Secession/Autonomy from the State of Grenada

"... Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just
powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any Form
of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right
of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new
Government, laying its foundation on such principles and
organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most
likely to effect their Safety and Happiness."
-- United States Declaration of Independence

Now is the time for Carriacou and Petite Martinique to grow up and take her rightful place as an equal among all the world's small great nations by becoming her own separate country. Never will Carriacou reach her own bright destiny while she remains under the control of an uncaring and distant guardian who is openly controlled by forces hostile to the sovereign prosperity of Carriacou. Should a Grenada- based government which uses Carriacou for her money, which uses Carriacou for her natural resources, which abandoned Carriacou years ago, should such a colonial institution control and determine the fate and future of Carriacouans and Petite Martiniquans?.

Only Carriacouans and PM'ers can and should decide Carriacou and PM's future. Independence after decades of Grenadian misrule and abuse is the only viable option remaining for Carriacouans and PM’ers..

Free Carriacou from the systemically corrupt and stacked deck Grenada- based political system and we will see Carriacou and PM blossom into the rose of the Caribbean.

The case for Carriacou’s secession is as follows:

Carriacou has been abandoned by the Grenada - based Government for almost 50 years.

Carriacou and Petite Martinique are geographically located about 20 miles north of Grenada, the combined population of Carriacou and PM is approximately 10,000. With Carriacou containing 7,000 and PM 3,000. Presently Carriacou and PM are dependencies of The State of Grenada.

The Carriacou and PM Party (CAPMAP) was created in Oct. 2006 to bring about the peaceful secession from the State of Grenada and the political and economic independence of Carriacou and PM from Grenada.

It is our firm belief that Carriacouans residing on the island of Carriacou and Carriacouans in the Diaspora would like to see Carriacou & PM become an independent state with all the rights and privileges that the United Nations charter allows member states. We believe that it will be in the best interest of Carriacou & PM and indeed Grenada that this separation is realized at the earliest opportunity.

As an independent state Carriacouans and PMers can make decisions about there lives and future with out permission from a foreign entity called Grenada.

Our petition seeks to validate our noble cause by asking the following questions of ALL residents of Carriacou of Petite Martinique, native born Carriacouans and PM’ers and Carriacouans and PM’ers in the Diaspora to sign this petition YES or NO when ask the following questions.

In light of the historical neglect and exploitation of the people of Carriacou and PM by the State of Grenada and its successive governments over the past 50 years, do you agree that Carriacou & PM should secede from the State of Grenada and form it’s own independent State?
