Janine Joseph reviews canadian director Lulu Wei's 'There's No Place Like This, Anyplace' a documentary about the famous and grand Honest Ed's--a landmark in Toronto's downtown. The fall of Honest Ed's is the story of gentrification and this documentary is a clear snapshot of the ever looming force of condo development and rent hikes in Canada's largest city.
Liam Parker reviews director Jennifer Taylor's 'For the Love of Rutland'-- a tale of 100 Syrian refugees in a small town in Vermont, USA. Parker concludes that this documentary "masterfully" balances this story about small-town life, through civil disputes over xenophobia and classism to very close-to-home scenes of the opioid crisis--in a place not all that unlike Peterborough.
Liam Parker reviews 'The River' a documentary short that is close to home in Peterborough. 'The River' directed by Benjamin Hargreaves skillfully tells the story of The River Magazine and Faelan Dobbin, a local artist whose struggles with mental illness and disability in this film elucidate the reality of being low income in Peterborough.
Issue 6 is your one stop shop to all the hot goss going on at Trent! TCSA VP resignation? Leo saying a swear? Another questionable election? You got it and it's all here alongside local news, arts, and culture from around Peterborough/Nogojiwanong!
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.
