Emma Buchanan of Visual Change Video sits down with Gen Squeeze Founder Paul Kershaw to discuss Elxn 45 through the lens of generational fairness and Gen Squeeze's election priorities: housing, pollution pricing, tax cuts, and balancing the budget (and trust us, the last two are more interesting than you think!).We seek to understand:- The magical thinking behind party promises to cut taxes and increase spending.- The surprising budget item that overshadows all other federal spending and why parties aren't talking about it.- Where parties are falling short on what Canadians really need to address the unaffordability crisis. And;- What happening to Mr. Poilievre's "carbon tax election", and what's now at stake to protect our kids from harmful pollution.In an era of “Trump-style” political turmoil and fake news, we use our Dupe-o-Meter to dig into each party's promises to discover if there's substance beyond the slogans, so voters know what's really on offer.Learn more:Gen Squeeze's 2025 Election Guide

Voting in #Election2024 isn't only about the race for president, though sometimes the media makes it feel that way!

I've also written several non-fiction political commentary books: Bad Deal for America (2022) explores the Vegas-style corruption running rampant in Washington DC, while The Decline of America: 100 Years of Leadership Failures (2018) analyzes – and grades – the leadership qualities of the past 100 years of U.S. presidents. You can find my books on Amazon, and me on social media (Twitter @DSchein1, LinkedIn @DavidSchein, and Facebook, Instagram, & YouTube @AuthorDavidSchein).

Budget votes, school board elections set for May 21 Beacon Polls will be open from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Tuesday. Voters who live in Beacon can cast ballots at Beacon High School, 101 Matteawan Road; district residents in Fishkill and Wappinger can vote at Glenham Elementary, 20 Chase Drive in Fishkill. Applications for absentee ballots are due Monday and completed ballots must be submitted to the district clerk by 5 p.m. on Tuesday. Beacon is proposing an $83.9 million spending plan (bit.ly/beacon-24budget), an increase of 3 percent. The tax levy rises to $47.7 million, a 3.9 percent increase that is the maximum allowed under the state's tax cap. According to the district, the annual increase for a Beacon resident who owns a home worth $425,000 about the median value in Dutchess, would be about $88. For Fishkill and Wappinger residents in the district, the estimated increase would be $100 and $106, respectively. In addition to the budget, voters will be asked to approve $50 million in spending on an array of capital projects, including heating, ventilation and energy-efficiency upgrades, new roofs on some buildings, an upgraded stage and theater at Beacon High School and new playground equipment at Sargent and Glenham elementaries. A third proposition would allow the district to purchase a second electric school bus. Voters approved buying one electric bus last year but it has yet to be purchased. The district has received approval from New York State for vouchers providing $257,250 for each bus, which, including a charger, sells for $495,000. The fourth proposition would permit the district to spend $485,000 to buy three 72-passenger, gas-powered buses. There are also four candidates for three open seats on the Beacon school board. You can read their responses here to three questions we posed. Garrison Polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. in the school gymnasium at 1100 Route 9D. Applications for absentee ballots are due Monday. Completed ballots must be submitted to the district clerk by 5 p.m. on Tuesday. Garrison is proposing a $13.4 million budget (bit.ly/garrison-budget24), an increase of 6.4 percent. The levy rises by 4.4 percent to $11.2 million, the maximum amount allowed under the state's tax cap. Annual taxes on a property valued at $400,000 would increase $143. The district is proposing to add a kindergarten teacher ($116,700) to meet a projected enrollment increase and spend $69,000 for an arts-in-education program through Putnam-Northern Westchester BOCES, $30,000 for a new school sign and $25,000 for field trips. High school tuition expenses for 11 additional students in grades nine to 12 will rise by $168,034, and the district is budgeting $250,000 to replace the gymnasium roof (to be offset by a $125,000 grant upon completion) and $78,073 more for transportation services. The ballot includes three additional propositions. Two authorize the district to extend through June 2029 its contracts to send eighth-grade graduates to Haldane and O'Neill high schools. A fourth proposition allows the district to register voters throughout the year instead of on two specific dates. Registration would be cut off five days before an election or vote. There are also three candidates for three open seats on the Garrison school board. You can read their responses here to three questions we posed. Haldane Voting will take place from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. at the elementary school library at 15 Craigside Drive. Applications for absentee ballots are due by 4 p.m. on Monday and completed ballots must be received by the district clerk by 5 p.m. on Tuesday. Haldane is proposing a $29.2 million budget that represents a 3.45 percent increase in overall spending. The levy rises by 2.8 percent to $22.8 million, and stays within the tax cap. Property taxes on a home valued at $500,000 will increase by $203, according to the district.

Not only is it the 100th anniversary of the first woman (Izena Ross) being elected to Edmonton City Hall, but it's also a municipal election year. On October 18, 2021, Edmontonians will head to the polls -- in the middle of a pandemic -- and elect a new city council. On Part 9, Searching For Izena Project co-chairs Katherine O'Neill and Rajah Maggay chat about the upcoming election and the quest for gender parity at Edmonton City Hall (hint: the first and only time that ever happened in our city, Brian Mulroney was the Prime Minister and Love Shack ruled the charts). 86 people have registered to run in the 2021 election; of those, only 29 are women (10 are BIPOC). While that's a record number, we still have a long, long way to go. On this episode, we also break down the mayoral race and all 12 ward races and introduce you to the women running in each contest. Katherine and Rajah are joined on this episode by Searching For Izena podcast producer Sam Brooks.   Correction: We mistakenly reported during Episode 9 that 113 people are running for a spot on Edmonton City Council on 2021; the number is 86.

Right now, we have two political parties fighting over how they will govern us.40 million evangelicals did not vote in 2016, and many said it's because they did not love either candidate. As I hear that again this year, I want to remind you that love has never been the standard regarding who we vote for.

People opposed to the Supreme Court nomination of Judge Brett Kavanaugh amid allegations against him of sexual assault and misconduct are marching through the streets of Washington today. A crowd of demonstrators chanted and held signs saying "I believe Dr. Ford" and "I believe Anita." Other signs quoted Dr. Christine Blasey Ford's testimony, "indelible in the hippocampus is the laughter," which Ford says haunts her the most about the night she was sexually assaulted. All of this comes as the FBI's report on the sexual misconduct allegations against Kavanaugh is now available for US senators to read. What does all of this mean? Is the limited nature of this FBI investigation due to the limitations placed upon the FBI by the White House, or is this the FBI being the FBI that so many of us are suspicious of due to its history?Testimony has ended in the murder trial of Chicago police officer Jason Van Dyke for his shooting of black teenager Laquan McDonald. Van Dyke testified yesterday and at times turned defiant when questioned by prosecutors, who pointed out that video footage of the 2014 shooting didn't match his account of what happened. He said he opened fire when McDonald kept advancing toward him while waving a knife. He said the shooting video “doesn't show my perspective.” Van Dyke, who is white, shot the black teenager 16 times.Brazil will go to the polls Sunday to choose a new president, in what could be the most important election in its history.
