Local singer, songwriter and actor Taylor Abrahamse is returning to Peterborough for a show at the Black Horse on April 21, to promote his new album ‘Live in Lockdown Vol. 1,’ which aims to support small businesses in the area and across North America.

Several businesses are featured at the end of the album, in what Abrahamse hopes to become a new trend among artists to help combat monopolies and give small businesses a fighting chance.

New money laundering rules hurt small businesses

As if the impact of the pandemic, high inflation, high interest rates and supply chain shortages weren’t enough of a drag, the Trudeau government has jumped in with a thick new layer of red tape that will hold small businesses back all across the country .

Until very recently, payroll software programs like Quickbooks and FreshBooks could deposit payroll funds into a business’s

Small businesses need balanced tech solutions

When your local business competes against national giants, you need all the help you can get.

I opened a clothing boutique in Austin nearly 20 years ago. For all of that time — through recessions, a pandemic, and myriad small-scale crises — we’ve strived and scraped to give Austin a personal alternative to the giant department stores that occupy huge swaths of shopping malls in our city and many others.

Our competitors advertise during national championships and awards shows. Their logos and goods pop up on most of the websites and news pages you read — quite possibly including this

Teaching Braille in PE – PHE America

Each school year, I teach a unit called “Abilities Awareness”. Making students aware of each other’s different abilities helps us become better citizens and leads to a more positive and inclusive school climate. This awareness leads to empathy and a deeper understanding of our peers’ individual learning needs resulting in a sense of belonging, community, and value in our school community. This unit is also an opportunity to address misconceptions surrounding different disabilities. In the words of Winston Churchill, “Diversity is the one true thing we all have in common. Celebrate it every day.”
