Open Sources (Ep. #524) Show Notes for June 19, 2025

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.

Open Sources (Ep. #523) Show Notes for June 12, 2025

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we’ve got fighting words. People are riled up here in Ontario about some more bad bills, and people in the U.S. are riled up about another week of living in Trumpland including his most dangerous moves against civil liberties yet. If you’re a Canadian concerned about these things, you might want to listen to this week’s guest because he has some ideas on how to fight back!

Open Sources (Ep. #520) Show Notes for May 22, 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.

Open Sources (Ep. #518) Show Notes for May 8, 2025

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we’re throwing shade. What do you do when you’re in the White House and forced to do a media availability with a crazy person? Make faces at the camera, of course. We’ll talk about Carney’s new place as everyone’s favourite anti-Trump figure, some complicated feelings post-election in Alberta, and then we’ll talk to the man who now formally represented Guelph in the House of Commons. Continue reading “Open Sources (Ep. #518) Show Notes for May 8, 2025”

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we are so back! Back on the campaign trail that is!! Yes, there’s now a full-blown federal election across Canada and to kick things off on this show, we’re going to talk about the opening moves by party leaders, the opening faux pas by a provincial leader, and how this election is going to look very different for all the voters in the Royal City no matter what riding they’re in (?).

Open Sources (Ep. #510) Show Notes for March 20, 2025

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we’ve got Canadian Tire money to burn. Like Justin Trudeau! Who spent the first day of the first week of the rest of his life pretending he’s a normal guy. As for his successor, he was going stuff this week, while south of the border there’s this guy that keeps talking smack about Canada, and now he’s rounding up people who are using their voices to be critical of foreign powers. Continue reading “Open Sources (Ep. #510) Show Notes for March 20, 2025”

Open Sources (Ep. #508) Show Notes for March 6, 2025

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we’re coming down from election fever, and maybe get ready to catch it once again…(?) Yes, the time has come for a new Liberal leader to be selected, which is its own drama, but nothing compared to the drama in the White House, which is exactly how its main occupant likes it (and the rest of us hate). For the interview this week, we’ve got a two-for-one special! Continue reading “Open Sources (Ep. #508) Show Notes for March 6, 2025”
