This issue’s cover story looks at the new Resource Recovery Centre, which, despite the bland name, is an exciting change in the way we will process our trash in this region. We also look at the history of the Community Accord that sets out how differences between Tla’amin and the City of Powell River are to be handled. There’s a look at how the looper caterpillars are destroying local forests, and news about local arts. You’ll also meet a local hunting and fishing “maniac” with his own TV show, our new reporter, some new businesses, local engravers, and a couple who moved here after hiking the Sunshine Coast Trail. Plus all our regular features! Click in the box above to read the August edition via Issuu. Or click here to download the PDF version.
