The April issue of Powell River Living examines slow fashion, how we've switched the virtual life over the past year, and features the winners of our Quickie writing contest. This issue also launches the annual Best of Powell River contest and introduces you to the nominees for the School District 47 by-election. Editor Pieta Woolley launches a series on chronic pain. We also look at the hot real estate market, the pending sale of the Patricia Theatre, and debates over local fish stocks. Plus our usual sections such as Blast from the Past, I Made the Move, Business Affairs, Business Not as Usual, Tla'amin Word of the Month, and much more.
