Open Sources (Ep. #436) Show Notes for July 27, 2023

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we’re a four quadrant success. We’re going local, provincial, national and international with the news this week, and this is what we’re talking about in no particular order: There’s a new map of Guelph and you may not like it in the south end, patronage is back in Ontario, the prime minister hopes that new cabinet faces will solve all his problems, and Florida Man is still being Florida Man.

Open Sources (Ep. #431) Show Notes for June 22, 2023

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we’re in a summer mood, but there’s no time to relax because there’s a lot going on! First, we have to talk about the loud and growing group of people that want to deny history, and speaking of history, might Toronto be on the brink of electing its first female immigrant person of colour mayor? We’re not here to tell the future, but our local MPP will be here to talk about the recent past in the interview. Continue reading “Open Sources (Ep. #431) Show Notes for June 22, 2023” →

Open Sources (Ep. #422) Show Notes for April 20, 2023

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we meet some characters. Did you know that four dozen people want to be the next mayor of Toronto? Perhaps they’re all animated by the potential fate of the Toronto waterfront, which is once again in the news. Some of them would likely find good company with Elon Musk who has no problem finding strange bedfellows, and speaking of strange bedfellows we need to talk about Fox News. What a week to talk smack about the news! Continue reading “Open Sources (Ep. #422) Show Notes for April 20, 2023” →

Open Sources (Ep. #413) Show Notes for February 16, 2023

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we’re feeling the love. Yes, it’s two days after Valentine’s Day technically, but the love for covering hot button issues and concerning political trends burns strong. On the menu today is a variety of topics including a new conflict of interest scandal for the premier, and a new sex scandal for the Mayor of Toronto. Abroad, we will look at the latest developments around a year-long war, and the same old same old from the death cult that now runs the American legislature.

Open Sources (Ep. #410) Show Notes for January 19, 2023

This week on Open Sources Guelph it’s Blue Thursday, the saddest Thursday of the week. To celebrate, we’re going to talk about the Code Blue in our healthcare system that Ontario’s inglorious premier thinks he’s solved, and then we’re going to talk about some issues around Toronto’s men and women in blue, the members of its police service. But it’s not all depressing because we’ve brought in an old friend to talk about all the math city council will be doing next week! Continue reading “Open Sources (Ep. #410) Show Notes for January 19, 2023” →

Open Sources (Ep. #409) Show Notes for January 12, 2023

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we’ve got déjà vu, or should we say, “déjà coup”. A lot of people have made that joke, so let’s talk about the very serious issues behind that with some concerning recent undemocratic events in Brazil. We will also talk about one of Scotty’s favourite issues, rich people having too much money! In the back half of the show, we’re going to talk to the man who might be the most obsessively environmental person in Ontario politics not named Mike. Continue reading “Open Sources (Ep. #409) Show Notes for January 12, 2023” →

Open Sources (Ep. #388) Show Notes for August 18, 2022

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we’re back! After enjoying some bee-free time outdoors, we’re back in our respective bunkers and ready to get down to business as unusual. To wit, Ontario’s premier had some bee troubles to go with all the other troubles he’s bee’n facing lately, which are nothing compared to the troubles facing a certain Florida man. What else? How about a talk with a doctor *and* a politician? Continue reading “Open Sources (Ep. #388) Show Notes for August 18, 2022” →
