Open Sources Show Notes for Thursday October 1, 2015

The election started with New Democratic Party leader Tom Mulcair being the heir apparent for the Prime Minister’s Office, but this week on Open Sources Guelph we’re wondering a more local-focused question: can an NDP candidate overturn the 22 year Liberal Party dynasty in the Royal City. We’ve had the Liberal candidate on the show to tell us why we should stay red, and this week’s its the NDP’s turn to tell us why we should like some Orange Crush.

This week, Open Sources Guelph will kick its election coverage to the next level by interviewing the first of the four major party candidates in the riding of Guelph.

Open Sources Show Notes for Thursday September 17, 2015

This week, Open Sources Guelph will continue our election interview series by doing a twofer. We will have back-to-back interviews with two of the local candidates running to represent Guelph on Parliament Hill for the next four years, and they are both candidates who may not get a lot of air time due to the fact that they’re not running for one of the four major parties. If you’re tired of politics as usual, and are maybe looking for new voices in this campaign, then this is the show for you.

Open Sources Show Notes for Thursday August 27, 2015

“Brownie, you’re doing a heck of a job.” The faint praise of a middling bureaucrat in the wake of a tremendous humanitarian disaster still haunts us 10 years later on this week’s Open Sources Guelph. In a bizarre bit of timing, we consider another burgeoning humanitarian crisis, this time in Europe with thousands of refugees trying to escape the chaos of Middle East conflicts. All that, plus the Ashley Madison hacks, and (naturally) all the latest campaign news form the meat of this week’s show. Continue reading “Open Sources Show Notes for Thursday August 27, 2015” →
