Governor Lalgie came to Bermuda four years ago as the first woman and woman of Afro-Caribbean descent to be appointed as Governor or Bermuda.
As she prepares to leave Bermuda, Governor Rena Lalgie has shared her experiences and touched upon the contentious issues that arose during her tenure.
We began by reflecting on the tension between the Government and Government House after the cannabis licensing bill, intended to liberalise cannabis use, was rejected.
Jasmine Patterson asked the Governor whether there was cause for concern in terms of constitutionality and a potential for this contentious issue to shift views on Bermuda’s sovereignty.
Governor Lalgie’s successor, Andrew Murdoch, will be sworn-in on January 23rd.
