News and Politics with a Local Voice
This week on Open Sources Guelph, our hats are on our heads, not in our hands!

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we’re trying to keep all our paper’s straight. Once again, it was a busy news week as the world came to Canada, or at least the heads of the biggest and most powerful countries did. Also, we get to talk about a new war, apparently because we’ve run out of things to say about the old wars while closer to home, we’ll go back to the Quatro and talk to a member of city council from the west end of the city.

And to help prove that we’re going to get out the scorecards for the first two weeks of business with the new Canadian government and the first year of business for the U.K.’s government. In other news, we’ll go super local looking at one neighbourhood with that area’s council representative! Continue reading “Open Sources (Ep. #522) Show Notes for June 5, 2025”
This week on Open Sources Guelph we’re talking war and price. No, you read that right. On the war front we’re going back to Gaza where the prospects for peace have not improved, and along with that it’s going to get tougher to express your thoughts on war if you’re protesting in Toronto. As for price, that’s what we’ve got our guest here to talk about as we dig into money matters with an expert. Continue reading “Open Sources (Ep. #521) Show Notes for May 29, 2025”
This week on Open Sources Guelph, we get back to basics, and by “basics” we mean our two favourite agitators. Yes, it’s time again to talk about the two Ds, Donald and Doug. One is turning American democracy inside out and the other is turn provincial environmental policy upside down. And for the interview? We will get an education with our special guest, a teacher! Continue reading “Open Sources (Ep. #520) Show Notes for May 22, 2025”
This week on Open Sources Guelph, we’re making a sad face. Not just about the condition of our New Democratic Party, but also because there’s another flashpoint in the world that’s using violent means to reach violent ends. At least everything local is cool, right? Well, not so fast, because we have another guest from city council who will be stopping by to set us straight.
