GUELPH POLITICAST #436 – Raw Audio News 2

Guelph Politicast ·

2024/10/02

Last week was a very busy news week here in Guelph, four stories that each, in their way, tell the story of a growing city when it comes to the economy, public safety and accountability. For this episode of the pod you're going to hear the news as it’s covered, live (ish) from around town as we get into some real shoe leather reporting from the streets of the Royal City. This is "Raw Audio News!" First we will talk to Paul Hanna, executive VP of member relations, governance and corporate services

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we've got a lot going on. There are two elections happening in Canada right now, and probably not the ones you expect. Meanwhile, Israel's war is expanding to Hezbollah now as they launch attacks both big and small around the regions, just in time for the start of another October. For the interview, we've got our local Member of Provincial Parliament who's still trying to stay on top of the premier's recent colour commentary. This Thursday, September 26, at 5 pm,

GUELPH POLITICAST #435 – This is the United Way...

Guelph Politicast ·

2024/09/25

If it’s September, that means it’s time to start the United Way’s annual fundraising campaign. A linchpin when it comes to support for all kinds of area non-profits and charities, it’s worth noting that this year’s campaign comes at a time of great need. Today, we’re going to learn from the head of the United Way about how they’re coping and how they’re still trying to answer the call. Earlier this year, the United Way gave out $1.5 million to 51 programs. Now, $1.5 million split 51 different ways

2024/09/23

This week on Open Sources Guelph we're going to try and tone down the rhetoric. But can we still be spicy? Probably, the news certainly is! If you think it's hot up in Ottawa this first week back from summer vacation, just wait until you hear about what's been going on in the United States lately. And for the interview in the back half, we've got a grocery list of issues about food insecurity, and we will be joined someone who knows how to fix them.

Guelph Politicast ·

2024/09/18

So has anything interesting been happening at Guelph city council lately? Of course, there has! We've already covered the first third of 2024 on a previous podcast, and we will now visit that middle third, a period of time that is supposed to be more of a laid back political time as people rest and recreate over the summer. But no! The last four months at council have been all business, and this is the business!!Now are things you can expect ever year around the midpoint. The annual shareholders

2024/09/11

Sometimes in this business, you go looking for the story and sometimes the story finds you... Last week, former Terry Fox Run organizer David Picard talked about his years of work putting this event together, and then he offered an opportunity: How would you like to hear from the woman that started it all? This week, we learn about the beginning of the Terry Fox Run and we'll learn how she did it. Terry Fox died at Royal Columbian Hospital in New Westminster. B.C. on June 19, 1981; he went into the

2024/09/06

This week on End Credits, we're going back to school, and back to space.

The first Terry Fox Run took place in 1981, just a few months after the young man it’s named after passed away, and a little over a year after his Marathon of Hope came to an abrupt end. Over the last 43 years, millions and millions of dollars have been raised for cancer research, including over $1 million from Guelph alone, and all of this was done through the power of some very passionate volunteers. This is the story of one of them.Tuesday July 22, 1980 was “Terry Fox Day” in Guelph, it was the

2024/09/02

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we're getting our bearings. In this late summer mode, we're looking to the coming election south of the border and the constantly changing game there, meanwhile on this side of the border the Federal Liberals are hoping that they have enough juice to change their own game. Meanwhile, here in Guelph, the game is "musical chairs" and the players are Guelph city council and community members experiencing homelessness. This Thursday, August 29, at 5 pm, Scotty Hertz

As we do at the end of August, we’re marking Drug Poisoning Awareness Day, and it hasn't been a great week for the people fighting this issue. Last week, the Ontario government decided that no safe consumption site can be within 200 metres of a school or daycare, including the one at Guelph Community Health Centre. The drug poisoning crisis is not getting any better, and now there’s the possibility that it’s going to get worse.In 2023, at least 62 community members died due to substance-related

This week on End Credits, we’re gone. Gone fishin’? Maybe, we don’t watch the co-hosts every minute, especially when they’re not on the air. Yes, it’s that time again, time for the mid-August break. So while we’re breaking, we’ve got some cool – what the kids used to call – “repeats” for you. Get your road maps and your road snacks, because this week we’re vacationing! Let’s Get Goofy!

Housing. It's an easy problem to diagnosis but it's a hard problem to solve it seems, and that has seems to have stopped the Government of Ontario from even trying. Cabinet ministers have probably been getting an earful about that this week at the Association of Municipalities of Ontario conference, but there's one member at Queen's Park that still hasn't given up, and you will never guess who...This past February, we were joined on the pod by Guelph MPP and Green Party of Ontario leader.
