By the time you're listening to this you know how it all turned out: Carney's the PM, a plurality of voters went Conservative though not enough in Carleton to send the leader back to the House. The NDP are decimated, the Greens are down to one seat again, and the Bloc have called a truce in the name of "national unity"(?). What an election! Let's live through it all again!! From 8 pm to midnight on Election Night, the tag team of me and Scotty Hertz, plus CFRU programming director (and renowned Wikipedia editor) Christopher Currie, were live to air covering the results as they came into the CFRU newsroom... through the CBC's live vote tracker page. The focus was local, with coverage of the two Guelph ridings, but our view was nation-wide from coast to coast to coast. And there were some special guests as well! Over the course of the night we heard from Emily Blake, the associate editor of Cabin Radio, a Local Journalism Initiative reporting on the Dehcho region and the Northwest Territories' housing crisis that's funded in part by the Government of Canada. We also heard from Kim Siever from The Alberta Worker, an independent media outlet that focuses on labour and politics founded in April 2020. So let's relive the 2025 Canadian Election on this week's Guelph Politicast! Keep tuning in to Open Sources Guelph Thursdays at 5 pm on CFRU 93.3 fm and cfru.ca! The host for the Guelph Politicast is Podbean. Find more episodes of the Politicast here, or download them on your favourite podcast app at Apple, TuneIn and Spotify . Also, when you subscribe to the Guelph Politicast channel and you will also get an episode of Open Sources Guelph every Monday, and an episode of End Credits every Friday.

Cabin Radio's Live Election debate was hosted last night by Ollie Williams, where he was joined by a stellar batting average of candidates. Like, a first ballot, Hall of Fame batting average. But, outside of baseball, fairly unremarkable.

A Nasa jet that just landed in Yellowknife is near the end of a decade-long mission to understand the changing northern landscape. The project has the cute acronym ABoVE – which we'll explain – and Chip Miller is one of the scientists leading it. After 2023's disastrous fires, ABoVE is uniquely positioned to tell us what wildfires (and other factors like changing permafrost) are doing to the land, and maybe that can help us adapt. Bonus: if you see this in time, there's an open house at the Nasa jet on Thursday, August 15. Find more details on the Cabin Radio events calendar.

April's government payments to NWT daycares and dayhomes – designed to help introduce $10-a-day childcare – were late.

Speaking to Cabin Radio, the territorial minister responsible apologized for the latest problems. Caitlin Cleveland told us how she wants to fix things and make NWT childcare better. In this podcast, hear from the minister and people at the heart of the industry about what's going on.

And as the residents who were forced to evacuate know, things like safe road systems and strong telecommunication networks are essential for emergency management. Today we're talking about how this lack of infrastructure combined with other barriers have affected access to vital communication on the ground.

In the Canadian Radio-Television Justice system, the people are represented by two separate yet equally important groups. Cabin Radio, who wishes to be a real radio station, and the CRTC, who denied them. These are their stories.
