End Credits - November 6, 2019 (The Lighthouse)

November 08, 2019 10:55 - 56 minutes - 76.9 MB

This week on End Credits, things are getting unsettling. We're going to review the new film The Lighthouse, and talk about why it disturbs us deeply. Before that though, we're going to wrap up out Best of 1999 series, and kick off a new series chronicling the very best of the past decade. So drink up me hearties, yo-ho! This Wednesday, November 6, at 2 pm, Adam A. Donaldson and Tim Phillips will discuss: 25 for ’99, Part 5 of 5. It’s been 20 years since what’s been called “the best year in...

GUELPH POLITICAST #195 - Marshall on Transit

November 06, 2019 10:03 - 45 minutes - 62.7 MB

This weekend, the new Transit Action Alliance of Guelph (TAAG) will be holding their first annual Transit Summit and Town Hall. It will be a chance for the transit users and the transit curious to engage with City of Guelph employees and transportation advocates about how to make a transit-friendlier future. But why wait to get started?  This week, we'll hear from Sean Marshall, who's a prolific writer and advocate for transit and will be speaking and presenting at the Transit Summit on Sat...

Open Sources Guelph - October 31, 2019

November 04, 2019 10:53 - 52 minutes - 72.2 MB

Happy Halloween! We've got the scariest punditry you could ever imagine on this week's edition of Open Sources Guelph. There's danger and intrigue as the Federal leaders gather their thoughts after the election, there's a bottomless well of horrors being revealed in Washington as the investigation into Trump goes deeper, and then there's the most ghastly of all creatures, a smiling Doug Ford telling you he wants to be your friend. [Inset evil laugh.] This Thursday, October 31, at 5 pm, Sco...

End Credits - October 30, 2019 (Dolemite is My Name)

November 01, 2019 10:11 - 56 minutes - 78 MB

This week on End Credits, we dig into a bit of Hollywood history, and a bit of Hollywood's future. We're reviewing the true life tale of Dolemite is My Name, and looking once more at the best movies of 1999. We're also going to ask if Hollywood is getting a bit too comfortable with certain box office conditions, and we'll get into the latest twists around the Marvel question. This Wednesday, October 30, at 2 pm, Adam A. Donaldson and Vince Masson will discuss: China Grill. China is marking...

GUELPH POLITICAST #194 - "Back to School" with Mike Schreiner

October 30, 2019 10:05 - 22 minutes - 30.3 MB

This week, after a five-month long hiatus, it's finally "Back to School" time for the Ontario Legislature. Observers have been wondering if the extended break might allow for a more collegial tone to fall on Queen’s Park, especially as the government faces a number of pressing and challenging issues. Who better to ask if this is the case than our own MPP Mike Schreiner? As you all know, the late return of the Legislature is due to the Federal Election. After Justin Trudeau and the Liberals ...

Open Sources Guelph - October 24, 2019

October 28, 2019 10:24 - 58 minutes - 80 MB

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we're taking a break after our marathon five-hour live show on Election Night (and if you missed what happened, you can find all five hours on the CFRU archive, or the abridged version on the Guelph Politicast). So this episode is going to be what the kids used to call a "rerun," but it has a specific purpose because we're going to recap the recent appearances of Guelph's once and future Member of Parliament. This Thursday, October 24, at 5 pm, Scotty Hert...

End Credits - October 23, 2019 (Zombieland: Double Tap)

October 25, 2019 10:35 - 56 minutes - 78.1 MB

This week on End Credits, we catch up with some old friends: Columbus, Tallahassee, Wichita, and Little Rock. No, we're not planning a road trip, we're reviewing the Zombieland sequel. We're also going to talk about the new upcoming Matrix movie, some new trailers, and we'll hear from our next panelist on their Top 5 of 1999! This Wednesday, October 23, at 2 pm, Adam A. Donaldson and Candice Lepage will discuss: Back to Matrix. It looks like we're going back to The Matrix. There's been so ...

GUELPH POLITICAST #193 - Election Night (Abridged)

October 23, 2019 10:00 - 1 hour - 106 MB

Monday was Election Night, and the end of a long campaign that was only 40 days long, but was a tough-fought slugfest that took no prisoners on the hustings, or in the radio booths, of the nation. It's much to the relief of a nation that it's over (for now!), but there was some great stories and insights on CFRU on Election Night that demand to be preserved. From 7 pm to midnight on Monday night Scotty Hertz, Christopher Currie and I were live to air with all the results from coast-to-coas...

Open Sources Guelph - October 17, 2019

October 19, 2019 10:38 - 55 minutes - 75.7 MB

This week on Open Sources Guelph we have to say goodbye to the 2019 Federal Election as an ongoing story. With five days to go before Election Day, we will welcome the last of our local candidates in the form of Liberal Lloyd Longfield, and then we'll look back at the election issues we've missed, and then we'll look ahead to how they might affect the final vote. Oh, and read to the very end to found out the best way you should spend Election Night. (Hint: it's not watching CBC!) This Thurs...

End Credits - October 16, 2019 (Gemini Man)

October 18, 2019 10:02 - 58 minutes - 79.8 MB

This week on End Credits, two is better than one. Why have just one Will Smith, when you can have two, and that's pretty much the entire point of Gemini Man, which is this week's review. We're also going to talk about why everyone's hating on the MCU, why there might be more Joker in the future, and we'll talk about Peter's Top 5 from 1999. This Wednesday, October 16, at 2 pm, Adam A. Donaldson and Peter Salmon will discuss: M.C.Eww. In the last couple of weeks it's seemed like everybody'...

GUELPH POLITICAST #192 - World Mental Health Day at Guelph City Hall

October 16, 2019 10:23 - 45 minutes - 62 MB

Over 4,000 people take their own life every year. That’s an average of 10 per day, and 90 per cent of those people are living with a mental health issue of illness. For one suicide death, there are five people hospitalized with a self-inflicted injury, another 25 to 30 attempts, and 7 to 10 people who are left behind affected by suicide loss. It seems like this a huge problem that we never really talk about, doesn't it? That's the basis for this year's World Mental Health Day forum and info...

Open Sources Guelph - October 10, 2019

October 14, 2019 10:27 - 55 minutes - 76.2 MB

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we're running out of candidates! As we're getting closer to Election Day - a week-and-a-half now! - we're down to the last few candidates on the 2019 ballot in Guelph, and this week, both candidates are both old friends of the show. On this week's episode, we'll hear from Independent candidate Kornelis Klevering, and Green Party of Canada candidate Steve Dyck. This Thursday, October 10, at 5 pm, Scotty Hertz and Adam A. Donaldson will discuss: The Good Ka...

WELLINGTON-HALTON HILLS POLITICAST - Dr. Lesley Barron, Liberal Party

October 12, 2019 10:06 - 34 minutes - 47.4 MB

The history of Wellington-Halton Hills as a riding, is the history of Michael Chong. The riding was created in 2004, which was Chong’s first electoral victory, and he has been victorious ever since. Is it possible that a Liberal could come up now, and unseat a well-liked, and well-known member of the opposition party in a non-change election? Dr. Lesley Barron hopes so, and it's not impossible. The main urban area of the riding, Halton Hills, was represented for 10 years by Liberal Julian ...

End Credits - October 9, 2019 (Joker)

October 11, 2019 13:56 - 57 minutes - 79.1 MB

This week on End Credits we send in the clowns. Or rather one clown. This week we're going to try and get past the controversy and craziness and review the new movie, Joker. We're also going to start our series dedicated to 1999, and look at a couple of new trailers released this week, and we're going to talk about everyone's favourite topic, copyright law! This Wednesday, October 9, at 2 pm, Adam A. Donaldson and Tim Phillips will discuss: Copy, Right? In Hollywood, all the best laid plan...

GUELPH POLITICAST #191 - The Way of the Gun Control Debate

October 09, 2019 10:49 - 33 minutes - 46 MB

Last weekend, the movie Joker opened in thousands of theatres across North America, and police and law enforcement agencies in the U.S. were on their guard in case an active shooter seized on the opportunity. Good thing we don’t have to worry about that in Canada, right? But what if I told you though that Canada wasn’t even in the Top 40 of countries with the lowest rate of firearm-related deaths per 100,000 people? Now you may be thinking that while the news is full of a lot of gang shooti...

Open Sources Guelph - October 3, 2019

October 07, 2019 10:43 - 54 minutes - 75 MB

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we've got back-to-back candidate interviews with two of the more interesting characters of the current election campaign. In the first half of the show we're going to try again with Christian Heritage Party candidate Gordon Truscott, and then we will have in studio the People's Party candidate Mark Paralovos. This Thursday, October 3, at 5 pm, Scotty Hertz and Adam A. Donaldson will discuss: Gordon County. Second time's the charm. Christian Heritage Party...

End Credits - October 2, 2019 (Between Two Ferns: The Movie)

October 04, 2019 10:27 - 56 minutes - 76.9 MB

This week on End Credits, we're going to take it easy with a Netflix flick that's a fake behind the scenes documentary of a fake TV show. That's almost too meta to be allowed, but the movie's funny, so we'll allow it. We're reviewing Between Two Ferns: The Movie, and talking about clowns, friends, space wars, and the human stars of dinosaur movies. This Wednesday, October 2, at 2 pm, Adam A. Donaldson and Candice Lepage will discuss: Joker's Wild. This week, the DC Comics villain-based fil...

GUELPH POLITICAST #190 - Guelph Stuff (Local Election Update)

October 02, 2019 10:48 - 32 minutes - 45.2 MB

There's an election going on. If you know this already, then you are very well-informed, but if you turn on your TV to look for pundits to tell you what they think about the local race, you will be disappointed because they're all about the national leaders. Someone needs to fill the gap left by short-sighted mainstream media outlets. This sounds like a job for Guelph Stuff! On this edition of Guelph Stuff, a recurring segment of the Guelph Politicast that focuses on analysis of local issu...

Open Sources Guelph - September 26, 2019

September 30, 2019 10:13 - 55 minutes - 75.5 MB

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we fly the orange flag of welcome for local NDP candidate Aisha Jahangir, the latest candidate to join us for our 2019 series of interview for this Federal Election, but that's just half the show. For the second half we're going to look out further at the national campaign, and then take in all the latest drama south of the border, which this week has been more substantial than usual. This Thursday, September 19, at 5 pm, Scotty Hertz and Adam A. Donaldson...

WELLINGTON-HALTON HILLS POLITICAST - Ralph Martin, Green Party

September 28, 2019 10:23 - 36 minutes - 49.7 MB

So what is the Wellington Halton-Hills Politicast? For the next couple of weeks, it’s a miniseries we’re doing to profile the people running in the riding of Wellington Halton-Hills, which basically surrounds Guelph, and has a very unique and different character from our political field here in the Royal City. This first edition of the Wellington Halton-Hills Politicast features Wellington Halton-Hills Green Party candidate Ralph Martin, who's task to become part of a new class of insurgen...

End Credits - September 25, 2019 (Ad Astra)

September 27, 2019 10:35 - 56 minutes - 77.7 MB

This week on End Credits we're going all the way to Neptune, so pack a lunch! Actually, we're just going to the movies to watch Ad Astra, which is set, in part, around Neptune. Speaking of space cases, we'll talk about the hiring practices of SNL and the Crazy Rich Asians sequel, plus a startling glimpse at an alternative present, and why the world apparently needs remakes! This Wednesday, September 25, at 2 pm, Adam A. Donaldson and Vince Masson will discuss: Low Down Dirty Shane. Saturd...

GUELPH POLITICAST #189 - Maude!

September 25, 2019 10:12 - 27 minutes - 37.9 MB

Guelph knows water. We're the largest community in Canada that depends exclusively on ground water for our needs, and we're hyper aware of the dangers to our water supply and the urgent need to protect them. You know who else knows about working hard to protect Canada's water? You should, she pops by with impressive regularity this time of year. Maude Barlow has many epitaphs, but she's mostly known for her tireless and vocal advocacy on protecting water resources from exploitation and priv...

Open Sources Guelph - September 19, 2019

September 23, 2019 10:01 - 53 minutes - 72.8 MB

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we’re going to really get into the election issues, and for a change it’s not going to involve punditry. This week, we’re going to start our candidate interviews with two back-to-back contenders in the form of Communist Party candidate Juanita Burnett, and then we're going to talk about other controversies with the election. This Thursday, September 19, at 5 pm, Scotty Hertz and Adam A. Donaldson will discuss: A Matter of Work. The first candidate we’re in...

End Credits - September 18, 2019 (Hustlers)

September 20, 2019 10:13 - 54 minutes - 74.7 MB

This week on End Credits, we’re going to talk about how we survived TIFF even though we didn’t actually attend this year. Still, that film festival has heavily influenced our slate this week, with a review of Hustlers, and some discussion about the movies with the buzz post-festival. Also, we’re going to talk about the new terms in the streaming wars, Jim Cameron’s kingly ambitions. This Wednesday, September 18, at 2 pm, Adam A. Donaldson and Peter Salmon will discuss: Lucky ‘Rabbit’. Taik...

GUELPH POLITICAST #188 - The Correspondences

September 18, 2019 10:28 - 28 minutes - 39.5 MB

Five hours after the council meeting began, the main library project was back on track. After a couple of months of mixed messages and confusion, the library advocates were pleased with the definitive 9-4 decision to proceed with a new main library and the hard cap price tag of $67.1 million. But not all voices were heard. In the ever expansive quest to maximize our local democracy, many us wonder if all those correspondences at the back of the agenda are given due consideration. A lot of t...

Open Sources Guelph - September 12, 2019

September 16, 2019 10:36 - 54 minutes - 75.3 MB

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we're just really eager to get this election started, Justin! (He might be listening.) So we'll kick off this week's episode with an election preview, and then we'll get into the week's news, which is also, for the most part, about elections. We'll discuss the increased security for a Federal cabinet minister because of online threats, the results of the Manitoba election, and some more of the U.S. President's patented Kool-Aid Man diplomacy.  This Thursda...

End Credits - September 11, 2019 (IT Chapter 2)

September 13, 2019 10:51 - 56 minutes - 77.4 MB

End Credits is back! Did you miss us? Of course, you did, so let's talk about what we're going to talk about. We're reviewing the horror sequel IT, so hopefully that coulrophobia stuff is under control. We're also going to discuss the summer that was at the movies, the year that was for women and people of colour, a couple of new trailers, and what's new with some of your favourite stars. This Wednesday, September 11, at 2 pm, Adam A. Donaldson and Peter Salmon will discuss: Summer Lovin'...

GUELPH POLITICAST #187 - Living Next to Gilead

September 11, 2019 10:46 - 36 minutes - 50.3 MB

It takes literally thousands of people to make a movie or TV show, including that one person who finds the places where each scene in the production is shot, the location manager. It's a big job, you have to know where all the cool places to shoot are, and would it surprise you to learn that one of the most in-demand locations in show biz right now is just a 20-minute drive down the road? If you're a location manager it wouldn't surprise you because your union, the Location Managers Guild,...

Open Sources Guelph - September 5, 2019

September 09, 2019 10:53 - 54 minutes - 75.3 MB

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we're all like "When are you going to call an election, Justin!" But seriously, folks, there's lots of serious stuff to discuss. The battle between the NDP and Green Party for the hearts and minds of Canadian progressives just got hotter, the legal battle over the carbon tax marches on in spite of common sense, everything about Donald Trump battles for our attention, and the Brexit situation in the U.K. has somehow managed to become a bigger battle. Put your...

GUELPH POLITICAST #186 - Live-ish from Move-In Day

September 04, 2019 10:57 - 59 minutes - 81.3 MB

It's a strange sight every year; one day campus is all but empty, and the next day it's bursting with life. Saturday was Move-In Day at the University of Guelph as thousands of first year students moved in to their dorms, made new friends, and got their first taste of adulting as they began their academic pursuits (whatever they may be). As per usual, CFRU spent the day broadcasting live to air from Branion Plaza, which is the open area just behind the University Centre's north entrance. It...

Open Sources Guelph - August 29, 2019

September 02, 2019 10:22 - 54 minutes - 75.4 MB

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we wind down the summer with a relaxing look at the schizophrenic diplomatic situation around the world. Seriously, the global political order is not coming apart at the seams, it just feels like it. Anyway, we'll talk about that ball of zany that sums up the lost weekend at the France hosted G7, and we'll look at the seriously explosive situation in Kashmir. Closer to home, we'll look at the past politics of the Federal Conservative leader, and whether ther...

GUELPH POLITICAST #185 - A Labour Day Special

August 28, 2019 10:41 - 1 hour - 108 MB

Monday is Labour Day, which most people mark as the unofficial end of summer, but Labour Day has, and should, stand for something more. In this era where labour is struggling so hard, doing more work for the same pay, and in a perpetual state of stress, should we not take some to make sure we keep the "labour" in Labour Day? Of course, the answer is "yes!" and on this week's podcast, we're going to focus on a specific area of labour rights that does not get nearly enough coverage, the pligh...

Open Sources Guelph - August 22, 2019

August 26, 2019 10:07 - 54 minutes - 75 MB

This week on Open Sources Guelph we finally have an election in progress to talk about, just not the one we were expecting.  Yup, the writ has been drawn up in Manitoba for a provincial election there, but before we get into those issues, we've got stuff to talk about right here in Ontario as our Premier tried to convince the cities he's done so much too that he's not such a bad guy. In the back half, we'll talk about gun issues here and in America, and what it really means to be Antifa. T...

End Credits - Public Service Announcement!

August 23, 2019 10:05 - 1 minute - 2.38 MB

We're on vacation. See you again September 11 on CFRU and September 13 here on the Guelph Politicast channel!

GUELPH POLITICAST #184 – The Transit Pass with TAAG

August 21, 2019 10:11 - 42 minutes - 58.3 MB

It's the dog days of August, summer is winding down, and everyone's got back to school thoughts, including, it seems, the people who run our area transit systems. Guelph Transit just announced some "minor tweaks", Metrolinx just announced more GO Trains, and the City of Guelph is planning for transit's future. Yup, it's time for another Transit Pass. As you may know, the Transit Pass is our quarterly discussion about all things transit with the members of the Transit Action Alliance of Guel...

Open Sources Guelph - August 15, 2019

August 19, 2019 10:23 - 54 minutes - 75 MB

We're back! After a surprisingly brief two-week vacation, Open Sources Guelph is back on the air with an all-new episode, and we're ready to hang with you through to this fall's Federal Election and beyond. That will be our first topic on our first episode back as we look at the moves of the federal party leaders ahead of the writ. We'll also talk about the mysterious end of a high-profile sexual predator, the seriousness of provincial separation (in the west end), and the latest from the te...

End Credits - August 7, 2019 (Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark)

August 16, 2019 10:46 - 55 minutes - 76.4 MB

This week on End Credits, we say goodbye to summer a little early. All the big movies of the season have come and gone, but this week, we'll look at a smaller, would-be franchise in the form of Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark. On top of that, we'll discuss the latest Disney/Fox scuttlebutt, Nicolas Cage's wild new interview, and we look to the movies of the fall. Did we mention summer's over? This Wednesday, August 14, at 2 pm, Adam A. Donaldson and Vince Masson will discuss: Franchise ...

GUELPH POLITICAST #183 - Getting Critical on 'Get Out the Vote!'

August 14, 2019 10:49 - 50 minutes - 69.9 MB

Every four years, Elections Canada runs a "Get Out the Vote" appeal that's meant to encourage everyone to cast their ballot on the appointed day, but at best, it seems like only 60 per cent of us get that message. Is there a way to send that message better, and more to the point, are we sending out the wrong message and/or sending it the wrong way? This is the focus of Ofer Berenstein's research. Berenstein, who is an instructor at the University of Calgary, recently completed his disserta...

GUELPH POLITICAST #182 – Maxime Bernier’s Guelph Town Hall

August 12, 2019 10:31 - 41 minutes - 57.2 MB

As we count down to the start of the 2019 Federal Election, we will likely see several special guests from the various political parties come to town, including the leaders themselves. Of course, you'll recall that at least two party leaders have already come to the Royal City, in last week's bonus episode you heard from one, and this week, you'll hear from another. Green Party leader Elizabeth May came and went without much controversy last month, but in the same week, People’s Party of C...

End Credits - August 7, 2019 (Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw)

August 09, 2019 10:56 - 57 minutes - 78.8 MB

This week on End Credits, why can't we be friends? We will marinate on how opposites attract when it comes to action movies with this week's review, Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw. Along with that, we'll be discussing how another action star is portrayed in another recent release, the fall of a legend, new trailers, and how TIFF has done the impossible and made the genders roughly equal. This Wednesday, August 7, at 2 pm, Adam A. Donaldson and Candice Lepage will discuss: Bruce Alr...

GUELPH POLITICAST #181 - Kevin Bowman, 123 Guelph

August 07, 2019 10:37 - 33 minutes - 45.7 MB

London has done it. Cambridge and Kingston are going to do it. But how about Guelph? How about the other 440 cities, towns and villages in the Province of Ontario? Because they can do it if they want thanks to the last provincial government! Get your mind out of the gutter because the "it" we're talking about is ranked ballots for municipal elections. As the City of Guelph heads into the 2018-2022 Council Composition and Employment Status Review, one Guelph group is pushing the Clerk's Offi...

GUELPH POLITICAST #180 - Elizabeth May's Guelph Town Hall

August 05, 2019 10:34 - 53 minutes - 74 MB

Election season is almost here, so it would be realistic to expect that towns and cities across the country will be receiving special guests to help convince voters to turn one way or the other. Guelph has already had a few appearances from Federal party leaders, and one of them was Green Party leader Elizabeth May. For May, Guelph is a must-stop during an election campaign, and it's been that way since her first election period as party leader in 2008. So with expectations to uphold, and ...

End Credits - July 31, 2019 (Once Upon a Time in ...Hollywood)

August 02, 2019 10:47 - 1 hour - 83.4 MB

This week on End Credits, we're going to go back in time to when people used to know how to treat each other right ...in Hollywood. Yes, we're going to weigh in on Tarantino's latest, Once Upon a Time ...in Hollywood, and we're going to look at the best performances in Tarantino's movies. We'll also talk about TIFF 2019, some HBO drama, and what's new in trailers. This Wednesday, July 31, at 2 pm, Adam A. Donaldson and Tim Phillips will discuss: The Line-Ups. Both the Toronto Internationa...

GUELPH POLITICAST #179 - Guelph Stuff (Bernier, Library, and Council)

July 31, 2019 10:31 - 46 minutes - 63.7 MB

August is almost here, which typically means a slower pace of news coverage in Guelph since city council is taking the month off. To look at it another way, it’s the perfect time to stop, and take stock of the year so far before we dive into a very busy fall that has a federal election, and a lengthy budget season. You know what? It's time for Guelph Stuff. As you know, Guelph Stuff is the Politicast punditry segment where in we talk about Guelph-related news items and share our thoughts a...

Open Sources Guelph - July 25, 2019

July 29, 2019 10:57 - 55 minutes - 75.9 MB

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we're wondering if anyone's going on summer vacation. In Ottawa, the news keeps coming even as we're counting down to a fall election. In the United States, the special counsel is back in the news despite his best efforts. In the U.K. there's a new sheriff in town, and he's going to make people do what he wants on Brexit (apparently). And finally, not to disturb your calm, but the rent is pretty damn expensive here in Canada, and we have the data to prove it...

End Credits - July 24, 2019 (Crawl)

July 26, 2019 10:25 - 57 minutes - 78.7 MB

This week on End Credits, we're going to avoid the siren song of The Lion King, and get into what the people should really want to see, survivalist horror drama. We'll see if we survived Crawl, and we'll see if we survive Scarlett Johansson's latest controversy and the new Cats trailer, plus we'll talk about the first announcement for TIFF and monsters in the movies! This Wednesday, July 24, at 2 pm, Adam A. Donaldson and Candice Lepage will discuss: Scarlett Blather. Scarlett Johansson st...

GUELPH POLITICAST #178 - Freedom of Expression

July 24, 2019 10:32 - 38 minutes - 53.2 MB

Freedom of Speech. It seems like a simple idea, but there's really nothing simple about it, especially when that's not the term we use it for this concept here in Canada. In the last couple of weeks, we’ve seen a lot of discussion online about who was violating someone else’s Freedom of Speech, but are we really aware of what that term entails. In section 2(b) of Canada’s Charter of Rights and Freedoms, it says that, “Everyone has the following fundamental freedoms: freedom of thought, beli...

Open Sources Guelph - July 18, 2019

July 22, 2019 10:08 - 55 minutes - 76.8 MB

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we're going to get election ready! The Federal Election is just a few weeks away, so we'll check on the status of some of the major parties, plus talk in-depth about one party's very particular move that made headlines locally and nationally. And on top of all that, we'll welcome another member of Guelph's City Council to the studio for another substantive chat about local issues. This Thursday, July 18, at 5 pm, Scotty Hertz and Adam A. Donaldson will disc...
