Open Sources Guelph #475 - June 27, 2024
from Guelph Politicast · host Adam A. Donaldson
This week on Open Sources Guelph, we're bummed. Our long weekend plans collapsed like so much roofing that may or may not be a threat to some school kids on a class trip! Fortunately, there is lots of news and politics to chew on including surprise closures of tourist attractions, a surprising electoral victory and even a not-so-surprising one out west. As for the rest of the show, we've called the police, and they're here to talk!! This Thursday, June 27, at 5 pm, Scotty Hertz and Adam A. Donaldson will discuss: Mystery Science Centre Theatre. It was more than a little shocking last Friday when the Government of Ontario announced that they were closing the Ontario Science Centre due to a roof that might literally collapse at any minute. Naturally, that's not the whole story, and half the province has spent the last six days trying to figure where the spin ends and where the truth begins. Now we take our turn, is there skulduggery afoot, and is Doug Ford trying to blind us by getting rid of Science? In Naheed of the Night. Former Calgary Mayor Naheed Nenshi won the leadership of the Alberta NDP in a veritable landslide, and now all he has to do is bide his time till 2027 and the next Alberta election. We'll talk about what Nenshi's going to do in the meantime, and the road to get there, and we will also interject this talk about Alberta politics with a brief discussion about that big Liberal loss in Toronto-St. Paul and why it might not be the end of the world for Team Trudeau. Police Stories. This week, the Guelph Police Service released their annual report and in its pages there's a picture of what a tricky balancing act it is to police a rapidly growing city like ours. Here to take us behind the scenes, and behind the numbers this week, is Chief Gord Cobey, Deputy Chief Steve Gill, and Inspector Andrew Goody who oversees policing needs downtown. Together, they will explain why Guelph is safer than you might think, where they want to make improvements, and why they're trying to be more proactive. Open Sources is live on CFRU 93.3 fm and cfru.ca at 5 pm on Thursday.
