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. #404) Show Notes for December 8, 2022

This week on Open Sources Guelph. we’re coming home for Christmas (at least so far as the news is concerned). We’re going to Alberta where there’s some interesting new legislation to parse, and then we will catch-up with our old friends in the Green Party who also made some interesting choices. In Guelph though, we’re going to sit down with another new city councillor to talk about local issues big and small. Continue reading “Open Sources (Ep. #404) Show Notes for December 8, 2022”

Open Sources (Ep. #348) Show Notes for October 21, 2021

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we’ve got a potpourri. “Potpourri” is the category on Jeopardy! where they’ve got a lot of great answers that don’t fit into other categories, so this week’s show is a potpourri as we discuss the Alberta municipal elections, and the murder of another British Member of Parliament. In the back half of the show, we’re going to interview a Kitchener man who made history in last month’s Federal election. Continue reading “Open Sources (Ep. #348) Show Notes for October 21, 2021”
