TouchBase News
“Our mission was to bring to the fore many stories, from here in the Maritimes to far flung corners of the world, that would often be overlooked by the mainstream press.
As our world has grown smaller, and our society more globalised, Touch BASE, now more than ever, is the Maritimes’ link to the people and events around the world that effect our communities and touch our lives.”
