News and Politics with a Local Voice
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.

This week on Open Sources Guelph we get back to normal. No more election talk for at least a year now. Well, maybe a bit more election talk. We will talk about everything we didn’t know on election night and what it means, and then we will get back into the normal work of proctoring developments at the Ontario government and Guelph city council, and on the subject of the latter, we have a guest for that.

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 (?).

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.

This week on Open Sources Guelph we order a side-helping of change and economic concern. The new prime minister and the new-old premier met this week to talk about their common enemy: the crazy person currently occupying the White House. For the other half of the show, we will look to more local concerns with one of the members of city council from the first (in numerical order) ward!

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we have to shake off the winter blahs and get into election mode! Doug Ford has called a snap election in Ontario for incredibly specious reasons, and we will get into that, and we will also get into an election issue that we should be talking about with a special guest expert on the subject. In other news, the federal Liberals are still trying to find a new leader. Continue reading “Open Sources (Ep. #504) Show Notes for January 30, 2025”
This week on Open Sources Guelph we’re trying to avoid talking about You-Know-Who, but it’s so very hard! Instead, we will talk around him by looking at at the Liberals who want to match wits with the new regime in Washington and their first major geopolitical challenge in the Middle East. In the interview, we’re going to talk to one of the people that wants to be a part of the next government no matter who leads it!
