Open Sources (Ep. #417) Show Notes for March 16, 2023

This week on Open Sources Guelph we’re going to run on the bank like it’s 1929! We shouldn’t joke, people’s livelihoods are at stake, but we’re once again seeing high-risk banking causing big problems, and that’s one of things that we’re going to be talking about on this week’s show. In other news, we will talk about the Canadian government’s face-off with Facebook, and to mark the COVID-19 pandemic’s third birthday, we’re joined by the woman atop our public health planning.

Open Sources (Ep. #403) Show Notes for December 1, 2022

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we catch up with old friends. Dinner with friends has gotten the former U.S. President into trouble again, and being a little too quick with the proverbial hickory stick has made a lot of people in China mad at their president-for-life. Guess we’ll just have to make some new friends, and that’s what we do this week as we interview another one of Guelph’s new councillors.

Open Sources (Ep. #385) Show Notes for July 14, 2022

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we’re throwing ourselves out of the party. It’s a busy week for Conservative leadership drama between recent developments here in Canada, and on the other side of the pond in the United Kingdom. In between all this drama, we will talk about the challenges facing our healthcare system, and that thing that happened last Friday, which reminded everyone that we’re much more connected online than we think… Continue reading “Open Sources (Ep. #385) Show Notes for July 14, 2022”

Open Sources (Ep. #373) Show Notes for April 14, 2022

This week on Open Sources Guelph, the Easter Bunny’s bringing a basket full of issues. Before taking a nice, leisurely long weekend off, we’re diving again into the Ukrainian War (now in it’s eighth great week), and the latest in terms of Ontario’s sixth wave (non) response. In the back half of the show, we’re talking to our local Federal representative about that big to-do pictured above, last week’s Federal budget.

Open Sources (Ep. #372) Show Notes for April 7, 2022

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we’re covering a lot of ground. In part one somehow things have gotten even worse in Ukraine, and speaking of things getting worse, we’ve got to talk about COVID again. In the second half of the show, we go back to Europe to check-up with the far-right’s favourite western democracy, and then we come back to Canda to keep the chat about far-right stuff going. Continue reading “Open Sources (Ep. #372) Show Notes for April 7, 2022”

Open Sources (Ep. #365) Show Notes for February 17, 2022

This week, Open Sources Guelph is going back to the convoy. Brace yourselves. A lot has changed since we last talked about the politics of these anti-mandate protests, and all levels of government have given us a lot to chew on these last few days. So there’s that, plus we will talk about the hate and scorn cast against the Canadian media. For the second half of the show, Mike Schreiner’s back just as you knew he would be. Continue reading “Open Sources (Ep. #365) Show Notes for February 17, 2022”

Open Sources (Ep. #364) Show Notes for February 10, 2022

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we’re relieved to longer hear the honking of the horns. Not that we really heard them, but the thought of it kept us up all night. You know what else is keeping us up? How about the thought of a bilateral meeting with Pierre Poilievre and Boris Johnson? We will talk about those two in the first half of the show, and in the second half we’ll talk Guelph business with the man from the (Ward) 6ix.
