GUELPH POLITICAST #531 – Slow Election? (feat. Scotty Hertz)
Does this one feel a little slow? There’s no doubt that there’s a lot of passion in the community for a variety of issues from affordability to housing development in this election, and there are a lot of new faces eager to take the reins around the council horseshoe, but a little over halfway through the nomination process, do the races this fall feel exciting, especially the open mayor’s race? Is there change in the air? Are people paying attention? Last week, there was finally a break in the mayor’s race. Ward 6 Councillor Ken Yee Chew submitted his name to become the next Mayor of Guelph and thus presented a challenge to his colleague, Ward 5 Councillor Leanne Caron. Now technically, there are four people in the race, but if this comes down to past council experience, for now, this is Caron versus Chew to lead Guelph into its post-Guthrie years. But that’s just the mayor’s race. If you look at the list of competitors in the six ward races, some of them are busier than others, especially Ward 1, which usually attracts a large variety of candidates in every election. There's still a question mark around two seats, one in Ward 4 and another in Ward 5; Councillors Christine Billings and Cathy Downer have yet to announce their intentions. And what about the school board races? Only four people have signed up across the four different school boards, why is that? To break down some of these questions, and more, we will be joined by Open Sources Guelph co-host Scotty Hertz. We will talk about whether this is a slow start to an election, why candidates need to have those social media accounts ready, and why no candidate can rest on social media alone. We will also talk about the top issues being discussed on the campaign trail, why candidates need to be ready to talk about cuts if they’re running against high taxes, and we will make a pit stop to talk about Mississauga politics. So let's talk about the election, two months down four to go, on this week's Guelph Politicast! You can see the full list of candidates running in all the races here. You can listen to Scotty and I talk every week, Thursday at 5 pm, on Open Sources Guelph, which airs on CFRU 93.3 fm and cfru.ca. We will be ramping up our election coverage there later this summer, and in the meantime, you can stay up to date on election stuff on Guelph Politico and by subscribing to the Tip Sheet newsletter.

Open Sources Guelph #574 - June 18, 2026
anyone under the age of 16 and introducing new regulations around A.I. chatbots including a responsibility to direct people with suicidal ideation to places they can get help. With Australia's own ban struggling to take hold, and Canada's history of chickening out when tech companies push back, is this the answer people have been waiting for? No Big Deal. Nearly four months after promising the war would only take two weeks, U.S. President Donald Trump announced that one of his birthday presents was a deal to end the "skirmish" he started. With still 24 hours left to screw it up before the Friday self-induced deadline, we will talk about what we know about this still unknown (at press time) deal, and whether or not it means peace in our time or peace for short time. The Responsibility Sandwich. It was a busy week last week at city council with a divisive debate about securing more of the Niska property, a new charitable hub project with some big unknown unknowns and the long awaited renoviction bylaw and vacant home tax. To help us talk about how it all went down, and what comes next, is Ward 1 Councillor Erin Caton, who will also join us to talk about the "responsibility sandwich" when it comes to filling gaps in local shelter programs. Open Sources is live on CFRU 93.3 fm and cfru.ca at 5 pm on Thursday.

End Credits #446 - June 17, 2026 (Obsession)
This week on End Credits we get obsessed. Finally, about a month after the fact, we will dig into a verifiable summer sensation, that other low-budget horror from a YouTube trained filmmaker.You guessed it, we will be reviewing Obsession, which is still in theatres, and then we will look even further back at the long history of an animation powerhouse. This Wednesday, June 17, at 3 pm, Adam A. Donaldson and Candice Lepage will discuss: Three Decades of Toy Story and Pixar. It was over 30 years ago that Pixar became a household name thanks to Toy Story, the first fully CG animated movie. The next Pixar movie, which is Toy Story 5, comes out this Friday, so to mark the occasion we will talk about the strange journey of the Toy Story franchise, the creative ups and downs of the studio over the last few years, and why you need to see Pixar's other 2026 hit, Hoppers, if you're an activist. REVIEW: Obsession (2026). It's the box office phenomenon of the summer, a horror movie morality tale about being careful what you wish for. Bear loves Nikki, but he's not so sure that he loves her back, so he foolishly one night makes a wish using a "magical" doodad called a One Wish Willow to make Nikki love him more than anyone else in the world. And that's where everything starts to go wrong. In its fourth week in theatres, Curry Barker's Obsession still sits pretty with audiences, but now our team will offer our two cents about the biggest movie of 2026! End Credits is on CFRU 93.3 fm and cfru.ca Wednesday at 3 pm.
