Open Sources (Ep. #591) Show Notes for October 22, 2026

This week on Open Sources Guelph we’re bringing the election in for a landing. It’s been a very busy couple of months covering this campaign and with this episode we safely cross the finish line. We will talk to one more person who wants to be the next Mayor of Guelph in the first half of the show, and then in the second half we will have part one of a two-part interview with the person who’s still the mayor. At least for a couple more weeks anyway. Continue reading “Open Sources (Ep. #591) Show Notes for October 22, 2026” →

Open Sources (Ep. #568) Show Notes for May 7, 2026

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we’re straining to do some explaining. How can you make sense of the news when the news barely makes sense?
