    Arthur Votes 2026: Jacob Méthot

    As a part of our On The Campaign Trail '26 coverage of the Peterborough municipal election, we present Arthur Votes, a podcast series where each Arthur editor sits down with a mayoral candidate to explore their platform and discuss the issues that matter most to our readers. This episode features Louanne Morin's conversation with Jacob Méthot, a Trent student in the English program. He says he’s running for mayor because he “saw a lot of issues” at council, like “transparency, transportation, housing issues” and failure to communicate with the public and figured he “could either sit back and complain from a distance or jump right in.” Online voting for Peterborough's municipal election begins October 5, 2026 and closes at 8:00PM EST on October 26, 2026. To vote online, you can access the site through your voter card or ⁠⁠⁠register electronically⁠⁠⁠. The City of Peterborough will be on Trent's Symons campus on Friday, October 9, 2026 from 9:00AM to 11:00AM at the Student Centre to assist students with registering to vote and advance voting. Advanced in-person voting will take place on Wednesday, October 14 from 10:00AM to 8:00PM. In-person voting will be available on Election Day (October 26) from 10:00AM to 8:00PM at ⁠⁠⁠your Ward⁠⁠⁠-based voting location or as listed on your voter card.

    As a part of our On The Campaign Trail '26 coverage of the Peterborough municipal election, we present Arthur Votes, a podcast series where each Arthur editor sits down with a mayoral candidate to explore their platform and discuss the issues that matter most to our readers. This episode features Ian Vansegbrook's conversation with Rebecca Schillemat, the former Executive Officer of the Peterborough & Kawarthas Home Builders Association, and has been involved in a variety of other not-for-profits, like Peterborough’s Chamber of Commerce and the Peterborough Folk Festival, as well as being on the Stakeholder Committee for the Community Planning Permit System. While she had originally planned to run for city council in 2018, a family move to B.C delayed her, and now she wants to bring a “broader and more collaborative mindset” to City Hall.  Online voting for Peterborough's municipal election begins October 5, 2026 and closes at 8:00PM EST on October 26, 2026.

    Arthur Votes 2026: Rob Hailman

    As of Sunday, October 4th, Hailman has paused all campaign activities aside from precommitments. You can read his statement on his website here. As a part of our On The Campaign Trail '26 coverage of the Peterborough municipal election, we present Arthur Votes, a podcast series where each Arthur editor sits down with a mayoral candidate to explore their platform and discuss the issues that matter most to our readers. This episode features Louanne Morin's conversation with Rob Hailman, the Director of Operations at Trent Radio as well as Arthur’s Business Manager. Having lived in Peterborough for 23 years, he says he came into municipal politics around 2011, in a movement opposed to large-scale public transit cuts. He was the last to sign up to run, citing a sense of disappointment over the absence of any candidate who shared his values and ideology. Hailman’s employment with Arthur does not constitute an endorsement of his campaign. Online voting for Peterborough's municipal election begins October 5, 2026 and closes at 8:00PM EST on October 26, 2026. To vote online, you can access the site through your voter card or ⁠register electronically⁠.

    Arthur Votes 2026: Michael Eamon

    As a part of our On The Campaign Trail '26 coverage of the Peterborough municipal election, we present Arthur Votes, a podcast series where each Arthur editor sits down with a mayoral candidate to explore their platform and discuss the issues that matter most to our readers. This episode features Ian Vansegbrook's conversation with Michael Eamon, the former president of Trent’s Catherine Parr Traill College, and a long time member of the public sector. He says one of the defining moments that pushed him to run was when in the span of one week, three different people---a “hardcore” Liberal, Conservative, and NDPer---all urged Eamon to run as mayor. Online voting for Peterborough's municipal election begins October 5, 2026 and closes at 8:00PM EST on October 26, 2026.

    Out of Office: Episode One

    For the inaugural episode of Arthur's new "Out of Office" podcast series, Allen Barnier invites his editors into the strange world of Crumbl Cookie: a Utah-based baked goods company that recently opened its doors in Peterborough and offers flavour arrangements that could only have been dreamt up by a toddler or a very early version of ChatGPT. Also on the menu: David, Ian and Louanne do a blind ranking of Peterborough hot spots, and Louanne finds out about that one time an otter got maimed inside the Peterborough zoo.
