Open Sources (Ep. #447) Show Notes for October 26, 2023

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we realize that it’s always darkest just before Halloween. At least that’s what it seems like when we open social media or a news app on our phone. We’ve got a full slate of political news for you from the latest in the Middle East and the frontlines in Israel to the battle lines in Queen’s Park. And then, we go to Saskatchewan where there was some constitutional experimentation, and speaking of experimenting, might Guelph be flirting with the blue team?!

Open Sources (Ep. #446) Show Notes for October 19, 2023

This week on Open Sources Guelph, it’s a kind of rerun. On the one hand, there’s still violence in the Middle East and it seems to be getting worse despite the interventions of foreign leaders and aid agencies. On the other hand we’ve got a great big new convoy, except it might not be as big as the previous one, but it’s still kind of annoying. And then, on our hidden third hand, we will talk about local stuff with a member of city council and how that might impact your wallet.

This week on Open Sources Guelph, all we’ve got are the issues.

Open Sources (Ep. #425) Show Notes for May 11, 2023

This week’s Open Sources Guelph is a down affair. What else can you say when China is making trouble again for Canadian politicians, and when things are getting so bad that making Canadians pay extra for the “privilege” of watching Fox News just isn’t enough anymore. And if these two topics aren’t a big enough bummer, we’re going to round out the show with some discussion about animal abuse for human amusement. Sadly, it’s just another Thursday in this timeline.
