Like many newcomers, Tory has a super interesting background. We\u2019re not sure how to describe him except to say he\u2019s\u00a0 a musician, creator, teacher, and tinkerer who recently moved to Rimouski. A native of Lindsay, Ontario, Tory spent many of his adult years in Brazil, where his wife is from. Tory&rsquo;s wife is currently pursuing her PhD in oceanography at UQAR. Since 2021, Rimouski has been home to Tory where he has recently opened his own Guitar Effects Unit company.\u00a0 This young entrepreneur describes an effect unit as a small electronic device that generates an audio effect such as echo, reverberation, and distortion. These effects are commonly used in rock music and other styles. Tory describes the sound of his effects as similar to the guitars from Van Halen or Phil Collins&rsquo;s voice in \u00ab\u00a0In The Air Tonight\u00a0\u00bb for musicians in the studio and live on stage.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For anyone who wants to chat with Tory about his work, he is volunteering every Saturday at the Heritage library in Rimouski or via his business email : PHOTO\u00a0<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now for the tough HLSL adapted Proust Q-Line:<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>Tory, did you know about poutine before you arrived? <\/b>Yes, of course!
