I just can't do it at the current local prices and exchange rates! I empathize with all my Jamaican friends having to live with these prices.
I miss Jamaica very much, but visiting Negril.com helps!
I don't want to scare you away suray. Red Dragon still has $250 Red Stripe and the pork there is still pretty cheap. You can still stay here, eat and drink on a budget, and I dare say maybe even a little less than living in Canada. KD and patties and the best part, the only ice you see here is in a glass of rum.
