In today's energy-driven economy, microgrids play an increasingly critical role. These local self-contained electrical systems supplement the power supply from the main grid while providing resiliency and the opportunity to incorporate alternative sources of energy. Welcome back to Sustainability Street, our podcast on the intersection of commercial real estate and the world we live in. For this episode on microgrids, my guest is Doug Mackenzie, vice president, Energy Resilience, for JLL's Clean Energy and Infrastructure Advisory team. Mackenzie and I discuss how microgrids help drive profitability and enable sustainability objectives for commercial real estate owners and users. Here's a sample of the topics we covered: Why CRE needs microgrids? (1:58) Microgrids and data centers (4:34) The microgrid value proposition (12:37) Sharing risks and costs (14:26) Adaptability and flexibility (17:15) Microgrids and AI (19:46)

The Hamilton Today Podcast with Scott Thompson: A modular housing builder is set to receive federal funding to upgrade its Ancaster, Ontario, facility and ramp up production to increase the country's “attainable homes” supply. Bob and Doug Mackenzie are back! And they are challenging the beer tax hike, in new commercials courtesy of Beer Canada. Writing in the National Post, Tasha Kheiriddin says that Canada's immigration policies are damaging the economy, citing findings from some of Canada's top bank economists, including Stéfane Marion, chief economist at National Bank of Canada, who state that Canada has fallen into “the population trap” in which “you don't have enough savings to stabilize your capital to labour ratio.” The Wedding, an immersive reception experience, is coming to The Cotton Factory next month – February 9th and 10th – and with it comes all the comedy and drama of two families coming together… and if you get your tickets, you're not just a member of the audience, you're a guest! The Canadian government is publicly naming 85 Chinese research institutions that “may pose” a threat to national security and sensitive research. The list also includes 12 Iranian and six Russian organizations that the Canadian government believes have ties to “military, national defence or state security entities.” Is this the perfect weather for the ice wine harvest, or is it a little much? Housing starts fell short in 2023 and it's “a real problem,” according to the Senior Director of Policy and Innovation at the Smart Prosperity Institute. Is Canada still “useful” in world affairs? Former Liberal Foreign Minister John Manley doesn't think so. Guests: Ali Ozden, CEO of BECC Modular CJ Hélie, President of Beer Canada Tasha Kheiriddin, Journalist, writer with National Post, GZERO media, and her substack page ‘In My Opinion'; Author of The Right Path Emily Bolyea, of Emmerson Arts Phil Gurski, President of Borealis Threat and Risk Consulting, former CSIS analyst Dorian Anderson, Executive Director, Niagara Grape & Wine Festival Mike Moffatt, Senior Director of Policy and Innovation at the Smart Prosperity Institute and an Assistant Professor in the Business, Economics and Public Policy group at Ivey Business School, Western University Dr. Jack Cunningham, Ph.D., Program Coordinator at the Bill Graham Centre for Contemporary International History, in Trinity College and the Munk School, University of Toronto Scott Radley, Host of The Scott Radley Show and Columnist with the Hamilton Spectator Host – Scott Thompson Content Producer – William Erskine Technical/Podcast Producer – Ben Straughan News Anchor – Dave Woodard & Jen McQueen Want to keep up with what happened in Hamilton Today?

The Lion King and Strange Brew a 2Films3Curious special featuring 2Films 3Curious alum The Other Bill "Oh, Hamlet Hamlet Hamlet Hamlet! the Vampire Army has taken the city!" -Hamlet, Act 3 Billy S., as he was known to his friends; was nothing if not prolific. From Henry the IV to Henry the V; Shakespeare has written a button of crap. One that some people were forced to read in school is Hamlet. The Lion King (1994) is Hamlet but with lions, and features Mandy from The West Wing and Darth Vader himself as Old Hamlet (I mean Mufasa). Strange Brew starts as some sort of weird Omega Man ripoff; but eventually becomes Hamlet in a Canadian brewery featuring Bob and Doug Mackenzie as the illustrious Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, as well as Max Von Sydow in a role that has no real analogue to the Hamlet story. (editor's note - is Max Von Sydow Ophelia's dad? since he's the caretaker of Rosy La Rose; our storie's Ophelia? who's to say??) This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

Opening Day is right around the corner, and that means the days are coming for tailgating, picnics in the park and plenty of convivial day drinking. It also means stocking up on coolers filled with refreshing beverages. There was a time, not more than five or ten years ago when options were limited to sweet carbonated beverages, Mike's Hard Lemonade and Bud Light’s Limeritas. Thankfully, the cocktail revolution has created a more robust appreciation for quality cocktails... and thus, a demand for a better canned beverages. In this week's podcast, we talk with Doug MacKenzie and Jason Neu, owners of SoulBoxer Cocktail Co. They share with us the story of SoulBoxer's beginnings, as well as its future. We also discuss the history of canned and bottled cocktails, the art of creating them and the status of future of these oh-so-convenient beverages.

The dog days of summer were particularly cruel this year. I mean, sure, there's a pretty good dog film in the form of Cujo, but that's only one small part of a very rocky landscape. Can the Pink Panther series get even worse? Yep. Can the Smokey and the Bandit series get even worse than that? We're almost done with 3D, thank god, but it's got a few more scars to leave. Sword and sorcery junk, post-apocalyptic dreck, and a teen sex comedy that's a real... well, you know. There are highlights. George Lucas throws a buddy a bone and we get an animated gem as a result. Peter Hyams does some moralizing. Frank Frazetta and Ralph Bakshi get it on. Rodney Dangerfield has to stop getting it on if he wants to get rich. And Bob and Doug MacKenzie head to Elsinore Brewery for some Strange Brew. All this plus the Citizen Kane of teen comedies and Berlin Alexanderplatz? It must be August of 1983.

Guys... this episode is ridiculously packed. This week, we're wrapping up all of this weekend's San Diego Comic-Con announcements, reveals, comments, questions, and more. Animated Movie in 2019? A live-action film coming in the near future? A Ghostbusters Answer the Call mini-series AND a TMNT/Ghostbusters crossover sequel from IDW? TONS of toys from Diamond Select. Blitzway's amazing 1/6 scale Ecto-1. Spirt Halloween costumes and proton packs... (take a breath) all of that PLUS a few other news items including the Toronto Second City return of Bob and Doug Mackenzie and more! Grab a snack, it's a long one!

In this interview, Margo tells BCB host Channie Peters about this unique event of storytelling accompanied by world musician Doug MacKenzie. He plays an astonishing variety of instruments from Indian and other cultures around the globe. These delightful stories from the Buddha's time and place feature the Buddha in many animal and human forms.The Jataka Tales reflect the truth that daily life offers us countless opportunities to develop wisdom and compassion, generosity and loving-kindness. The stories are beautifully told by an accomplished storyteller who has translated many of the stories from their original Pali or Sanskrit language. The tales provide a window into an ancient culture, as well as wisdom from traditional Buddhist teachings on kindness and generosity. Margo McLoughlin, a graduate of Harvard Divinity School, has studied Pali, the ancient language of the Buddha. Margo has been telling the Buddhist tales since 1991. She is a consultant with the Fetzer Institute for whom she has been gathering world tales of generosity for the past four years. The material is being used as tools for reflection and dialogue with several professional groups. Margo's stories can be found in CD and video formats on her website. The Bodhi Center is located at 6717 Marshall Road. Admission is by donation at the door to cover costs. Registration is encouraged at the Bodhi Center website since space is limited.
