There are plenty of contractors in the area that can replace window panes. They typically will just replace the whole panel as most double paned windows are filled with agron, which would have all leaked out of the crack. What brand windows do you have?

If you have an Ace/True Value/Aubuchon in town I'd swing by there, find the worker with the most gray hair and ask them if they know any glaziers.

Replacing a single pane of glass in true divided light windows is not terribly hard, so if there's a decent handyman in the area, that might fit the bill as well.

I'm a maple producer. This actually ruins the season. Trees don't have unlimited sap. And at this time of year it's not viable to put taps in trees for most people, this is because the trees will freeze again and push the taps back out among other issues. So basically people like me just lost ~10% of their yield on top of the fact that thaws like this are detrimental to the health of a tree as all the sap that travels up the tree is going to refreeze now all the rest of winter

Well, duh! If you aren’t profitable, you aren’t in business…takes me back to my first response to your comment…best that we all celebrate businesses making money else we’re unemployed.

But hey, as long as you don’t own/run your own business, your employees have nothing to worry about.

This is not necessarily true. There are many business structures which aim to provide maximum benefit to their employees, rather than a single owner/corporate structure.

They're called cooperatives. Not only are they more stable structures, they also report higher employee satisfaction, and are even more stable in times of economic instability. (Turns out when you don't have stock holders leaching off your business, you can have broader priorities than "make money")

But thanks for the info!
