Open Sources Guelph #467 - April 18, 2024 Guelph Politicast

- News
This week on Open Sources Guelph, we're going to have an "orgy of spending." That's how one Conservative MP described this year's federal budget, and we're going to talk about why, and speaking of elicit sex, we're going talk about the criminal trial of the former U.S. President. In the back half of the show though we're going to keep things nice and professional with a future election candidate.
This Thursday, April 18, at 5 pm, Scotty Hertz and Adam A. Donaldson will discuss:
Eat the Rich? The federal government released the 2024 budget on Tuesday, and it was meant to be a balm to Canada's affordability crisis, especially for young people. The new spending claims to have no impact on the deficit because of modest increases to the capital gains tax, but there's a big question mark about whether this spending will have a real impact. We'll talk about what all's in this budget.
Blight Court. For the first time, a former President of the United States is on criminal trial, before you ask if that's Donald Trump, let me tell you, it's Donald Trump! The case is about about the alleged use of campaign funds to buy the silence of adult film star Stormy Daniels about their dalliance that one time, and it means some long, boring, embarrassing weeks in a court room for the Republican nominee. We'll talk about the first two days.
Folk-Dawson's Creek. The next federal election is still more than a year-and-a-half away, at least if the confidence and supply agreement holds up. But even if it comes apart, the NDP in Guelph are ready because they have a candidate in place, and it's Janice Folk-Dawson. A well-known and accomplished labour activist, Folk-Dawson will tell us about making the move to politics and why she wants to put the labour back into Canada's labour party.
Open Sources is live on CFRU 93.3 fm and cfru.ca at 5 pm on Thursday.
