On the war front we’re going back to Gaza where the prospects for peace have not improved, and along with that it’s going to get tougher to express your thoughts on war if you’re protesting in Toronto.

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we’re not feeling the love. One day before Valentine’s Day, we will dive into some of the biggest news of the day including a crazy person’s plans for one of the most volatile regions on the planet.
