Open Sources (Ep. #430) Show Notes for June 15, 2023

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we’re looking for reading material. Let’s go to the bathroom where, naturally, you keep all your state secrets! Speaking of secrets we’ll talk about the ongoing efforts to wrap our head around election interference in the last two Canadian elections, and then we’ll head to the U.S. where a certain Florida Man is making trouble again. For the interview, we’ve got someone local with something to celebrate. Continue reading “Open Sources (Ep. #430) Show Notes for June 15, 2023” →

Open Sources (Ep. #428) Show Notes for June 1, 2023

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we will usher in meteorological summer by casting some sunshine on key issues. For instance, there was an election this week in Alberta and it was a close one (relatively speaking in a Alberta terms), and there was more election talk in the House of Common as nobody’s happy with the former Governor General investigating interference. Also, since it’s summer, let’s talk about farming! Continue reading “Open Sources (Ep. #428) Show Notes for June 1, 2023” →

Open Sources (Ep. #420) Show Notes for April 6, 2023

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we witness something completely rare and unexpected in our natural world: Accountability. We join, well, everyone in the political world right now by looking to New York City where a certain Florida man had to go to court. Back here in Canada, we were dealing with the fall out of other, more serious crimes, but the back half of the show will be reserved for money matters as Guelph’s MP will tell us why he likes the Federal Budget beyond the obvious.

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. #416) Show Notes for March 9, 2023

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we’re going to spring ahead with the underdogs. (Daylight savings time starts this weekend people.) First, we will head to Hamilton to catch up with the Ontario Liberals as they struggle to come out of the wilderness, and then we will talk about labour issues on the railways, and whether or not we should be concerned given recent events. And finally, we will spend some time with the other elected Mike from the Green Party. The one from Kitchener. Continue reading “Open Sources (Ep. #416) Show Notes for March 9, 2023” →

Open Sources (Ep. #412) Show Notes for February 9, 2023

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we look up. We look northeast-ward to Ottawa to see if there might finally be a new healthcare deal between levels of government, and then we look to the sky for more Chinese spy balloons because that’s a thing now. After that, we go back to Ottawa to revisit the fallout from the “Freedom Convoy” exactly one year ago, and specifically the effect on the people living there, which has now been documented in a convenient new report. Continue reading “Open Sources (Ep. #412) Show Notes for February 9, 2023” →

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.
