The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Synthesis Report, released Monday, March 20th, provides an overview of the most recent Sixth Assessment Cycle. In a fit of singular autistic laser focus and, let’s face it, a touch of masochism, I read the entire thing. Let’s talk about it.
There has been a fibre arts explosion since the pandemic, ranging from crocheting, knitting, embroidery, felting, and sewing. When there was nothing to do but create, people (especially young people) found that learning a new practical medium allowed for a chance to experiment with their creativity. To this day, the remnants of Covid-19’s hold on fibre art crafts is demonstrated throughout the Trent University population.
Councillors have provided preliminary approval for the development of new buildings and additions to existing structures in Peterborough’s downtown neighbourhood. Both major developments seek to address issues related to the availability of housing in Peterborough while also intensifying the downtown core.
Arthur is back for Volume 57! What to expect? We remisce on the Planet Bakery (RIP) at both downtown and campus locations, we spill some secrets about hidden gems on Trent's Symons Campus, and we get some tips from our new Editor-In-Chief on how to navigate academic burnout. Plus so much more, including a film review, puzzles, and a letter-to-the-editor from a TCSA board member.
Issue Five features a centre spread in recognition of Black History Month made up of community contributors reflecting on aspects of Black identity in a local and global context. The re-opening of the Pig's Ear Tavern was major news for locals and so Irene Suvillaga sat down with the new owners for another installment of "Meet the Locals." An awkward and upsetting instance of white fragility in Council ends in a successful motion for Councillors to undertake mandatory Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Training. "Dear David" takes on the big questions of gender politics, Evan Robins returns with a theatrical cut for "Cinevangelism," and another dispath from our trusted writer abroad, Tru Van Wyk talks the ups and downs of life in Nottingham. Finally, we are excited at the return of PuzPuz Puzzles! Sit back, relax, and remember what you read!
Episode 11! We talked about the STIGMA that seeps from the pores of Conservative MPP Dave Smith as well as Police spending $185,505 (plus annual operations costs) to install 12 CCTV cameras in Peterborough's downtown, plus much more!
