The Times Chronicle team have moved into our new location at 8317 Main Street, and are settling in. I am so grateful to those who have reached out to say that they are happy to see us continue. My path to newspaper ownership was not a simple one.
Termidity, audacity, effrontery – all suitable words for the ongoing Public Service Alliance of Canada (PSAC) labour action.
It’s been an important time for us in the Cullis-Suzuki household and at the David Suzuki Foundation, as David retires from The Nature of Things. I wanted to share my thoughts and processing of this with you, our community of support, because I know you care about Dad’s career and impact.
