Open Sources Guelph #471 - May 30, 2024
Manage episode 421823587 series 2363333
This week on Open Sources Guelph, we're all about elections. We're not having one across Ontario anytime soon, but the premier didn't rule it out last week. However, they are having an election right now in Mississauga, they're going to the polls next month to choose a new mayor. For the interview this week, we look to the United Kingdom where they're also having an election, and our guest has thoughts.
This Thursday, May 30, at 5 pm, Scotty Hertz and Adam A. Donaldson will discuss:
The Sum of All Beers. Doug Ford has done it again! He's made it easier to buy beer and spirits in corner stores around Ontario, presumably in celebration of having solved all of Ontario's other problems!! Sarcasm aside, Ford has actually created new problems for himself, including the Liberal revelation that the tab for free flowing beer may be in the billion dollar range. Is Ford now undone by beer?
A Mad Mayor 'Sauga. Mississauga is one of Canada's largest city, and there's presently a by-election there to replace now-Liberal leader Bonnie Crombie as mayor. Over 20 people are vying for the job including city councillor Alvin Tedjo, former MP Carolyn Parrish, and businessman Brian Crombie who is also Bonnie's ex-husband. With election day coming June 10, what political direction will Mississauga choose?
Rishi Rich? Last week, U.K. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak called election for July 4, but some people are seeing it a sign of surrender after a decade of turbulent Tory rule. Since no one on this show is a U.K. resident, we're outsourcing to John McInally, a Scottish-born London resident, retired labour organizer and political activist. He will take the pulse of the electorate across the pond, and tell us why this election is more a referendum on Sunak than an endorsement of the Labour Party.
Open Sources is live on CFRU 93.3 fm and cfru.ca at 5 pm on Thursday.
