The City of Terrace is lowering its flags in remembrance of former Alderman and Mayor Gordon E. Rowland.
Rowland passed away on February 13 in Vernon. He was born and raised in Burns Lake before moving to Terrace in 1958. Rowland was elected to Council as an Alderman in 1971 and served until 1973 when he resigned to run for Mayor. He served as Mayor from 1974 to 1977 when he left Terrace to move to Vernon.
During his time on Council he made a motion that the Upper Little Park be the site of the Terrace arena. The location of the arena had been a long topic of discussion and choosing a location allowed the community to move forward with its plans.

Today we’re catching up with 19-year-old Brendan Eshom from the Gitga’at Nation, whom we were fortunate enough to have on the show way back in July of 2020.
It was JUST after he had launched a successful educational language app called the Sm’algyax Word of the Day, another of his digital efforts to preserve and teach others the Sm’algyax language.
Since then, Brendan has started University and in a strange twist, had to enlist the help of Global News to get his Sm’algyax Word of the Day app reinstated by the Apple App Store.
