Episode 33: The Challenge of Changing Hamilton with Marvin Ryder
Host Rebecca Foster sits down with Marvin Ryder, Associate Professor of Marketing and Entrepreneurship at McMaster University’s DeGroote School of Business and one of Hamilton’s most frequent media commentators.
Marvin brings a unique perspective to the conversation, having served as Chair of the Hamilton Transition Board in 2000, overseeing the complex amalgamation of six distinct communities into the City of Hamilton we know today.
With another municipal election approaching, the conversation explores where Hamilton is today and where it could be heading.
Rebecca and Marvin discuss the role of city councillors, what residents should expect from their elected representatives, and why important policy decisions can sometimes get held back. They also look beyond City Hall at the broader economic picture, including the state of the Canadian economy, housing and the challenges facing communities across the country.
It’s a wide-ranging conversation about Hamilton’s political landscape, the responsibilities of local government, the forces shaping public policy and what it will take to move the city forward. If you care about Hamilton and the decisions being made about its future, this is an episode worth listening to.

Episode 32: Hamilton Needs a Business Mindset with Fred Bennink
What happens when you bring decades of business experience to the conversation about how Hamilton is run?
In Episode 32, host Rebecca Foster sits down with Fred Bennink, longtime owner of Zip Signs and a candidate for Hamilton City Council in Ward 12.
As longtime owner of Zip Signs, Fred has spent decades running a business and working alongside some of Canada’s largest banks. He believes Hamilton City Hall could benefit from bringing more of that business-minded, practical approach to decision-making — looking at costs, accountability, efficiency and whether the decisions being made actually make sense for the people and businesses that call Hamilton home.
We also talk about public safety. Fred’s years serving on the police board have given him a unique perspective on what can be done to improve road safety and the safety of the public overall.
It’s a conversation about business, city hall, accountability and what a more practical approach to running Hamilton could look like.
