Peterborough City Councillors re-affirmed their support at the November 27th Council Meeting for two initiatives previously given approval at General Committee after hearing delegations from community members.
In what was to be a rather short and uneventful Council meeting in terms of discussion, Councillors were tasked with ratifying a number of significant items including granting their support for a battery energy storage project on Trent University’s lands known as the North-End Peterborough Storage System, which will be built by Atura Power on property leased to them by Trent.
The Trent University Alternative Arts Collective (TUAAC) is a newly recognized student group founded by Ziggy Allin, with the help of their band The Pajama Bottoms, and Ainsley Berry, their secretary. TUAAC is a place for creative people to connect with each other and create non-mainstream events no matter their preferred medium.
Arthur is back for round two with Issue 1. In this issue you'll find interviews with Stephen Stohn and the proprietors of Peterborough's newest independent bookstore, Take Cover Books. Get the latest on City Council's strategy on homelessness and reports from the ground of local protests. We're also happy to introduce a new column with "Gator Goes Global" and the return of fan favourite "Cinevangelism."
Arthur is sooo back! After a rejuvenating summer sabbatical in the woods, Arthur returns just in time for the school year with more of the hard-hitting community reporting you've come to expect from this small but mighty rag. In Issue 0, you'll find articles by community members about the experiences of graduate students post-graduation, the pitfalls of corporate culture, and why Bata Library isn't so aptly named. You'll also find a veritable cornucopia of book and film reviews. This issue also includes a feature article on the Peterborough Museum and Archives' newest exhibit: "To Honour and Respect: Gifts from Michi Saagiig Women to the Prince of Wales, 1860.”
Issue 5 features reporting on events centred around Black History Month both in Peterborough and Durham Region as well as a host of local community arts, culture, and politics stories - including the unveiling of the new crest for Gidigaa Migizi College during this year's Elders and Tradsitional People's Gathering. FInally, as things ramp up for the TCSA's spring elections, we're hopeful that students will make informed decisions on the questions the Association is asking them to vote on, again.
Happy Tortured Poets Department release day to all who celebrate! Having listened to all two hours of the extended "Anthology" edition of this most recent emission from the Queen of jet-setting herself the editors get down and dirty in the lyrical content of the album.
