Podcasts about encampment

Send us a note!"The homeless are not Other. They are Us," Ontario's Superior Court declared last month. In a ruling that had advocates cheering, Justice Michael Gibson affirmed that unhoused people are entitled to the same Charter rights as any other Canadian — and that a bylaw targeting a specific encampment for removal had therefore amounted to anti-homeless discrimination.This left Doug Ford fuming. But this isn't about the premier. Not mostly, anyway. It is, as our story explains, about the people who have nowhere else to go.On this episode of Sources, Eric Wickham travelled to Kitchener, Ont., to meet residents of the encampment at the centre of the landmark case, and spoke to Ashley Schuitema and Shannon Down, two of the lawyers who persuaded the court to recognize the dignity of their clients.Support the show

Odd Fellowship is built around the principle of mutual aid, which implies that we should all be of service to one another.  Our current Sovereign Grand Master, Tom Calabrese, exemplifies the spirit of a servant leader.  Modest and unassuming, he has shown throughout his career in Odd Fellowship that he is always ready to pitch in and help out and that spirit of service has extended to his time as Sovereign Grand Master.  Brother Tom worked his way up from being a member of his father's lodge to becoming a Past Grand, joining the Grand Lodge of New Jersey, joining the Sovereign Grand Lodge, and then moving up to the highest office in Odd Fellowship.  Along the way he has exemplified the best aspects of service at every opportunity.  He shares his thoughts about the Order's direction, tells what he has done to keep the Sovereign Grand Lodge functional, and gives insight into how he deals with issues that come to him.  The Shoutout goes to yet another new Encampment, Barataria #73 of New Orleans, Louisiana.  In the Odd Podge, Toby shares the visit of PGM David "Ace" Adams of Minnesota to Seattle, Ainslie talks about his adventure driving a century-old dump truck, Meredith gives credit to a lodge in the Philippines for their amazing relief efforts in the face of a disaster, and Tom shares his wonderful cemetery experience with the Grand Master of Vermont, Teppi Zuppo.

Homelessness is one of the most important issues in Los Angeles—and one of the most politically challenging. Phoenix Tso of L.A. Public Press joins Jen Taylor-Skinner to unpack the debate over encampment sweeps, CARE Plus operations, Mayor Karen Bass's homelessness strategy, and the growing pressure on elected officials to balance public frustration with long-term solutions. They discuss why progressive politicians often evolve on homelessness policy once in office, the controversy surrounding Measure ULA, and how housing has become a political lightning rod that is reshaping voter behavior across the city. What happens when campaign promises collide with governing realities? This conversation explores one of the central questions facing Los Angeles today. Follow Phoenix Tso's reporting on the L.A.

A tribunal found that nothing corrupted the Ontario Liberals' controversial nomination meeting in Scarborough Southwest. Hosts Steve Paikin and John Michael McGrath discuss why Nathaniel Erskine-Smith's allegations were rejected, and what comes next. They also look at emerging advocacy to change the party's voting rules, as well as new names that have entered the Ontario Liberal leadership race. Plus, Ontario finally passes a new law regulating the inappropriate behavior of municipal politicians. Advocates say it's a first step, but the threshold for disciplinary action raises eyebrows. Will the law actually help? Then, Doug Ford lashed out at another judge's decision this week. A judge decided it was a Charter violation for Waterloo to clear an encampment that allegedly stands in the way of transit development. Were Doug Ford's comments out of line? Some legal academics believe Ford's statements threaten the independence of Canadian Courts. Finally, in "Your Column, My Column," JMM looks at whether new rules around grocery store leases could bring grocery prices down. And Steve pays tribute to one of Toronto's original political mavericks, Howard Moscoe.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's been nearly three years since the San Diego City Council passed the Unsafe Camping Ordinance, which prohibited tent encampments on public property when shelter beds are available.The law also set rules for how the city can enforce the ban, leading to increased sweeps of homeless encampments.Tuesday on Midday Edition, we hear about a new analysis from The San Diego Union-Tribune that digs deeper into the data, revealing the financial costs to the city and the impact of repeated sweeps on those living in the encampments.Guest:Kristen Taketa, watchdog and accountability reporter, The San Diego Union-Tribune

The City of Austin is considering changing how it responds to homeless encampments, including deploying daily cleanup teams. But after a recent video highlighted the human impacts of these sweeps, questions are being asked about what that process should look like.

Plus, the Austin firefighter pushing for equality in workers' compensation and the baby owl stealing our hearts (and plenty of our screen time).  Want some more Austin news?

A homeless encampment was swept at a Seattle park only to immediately return. Trump ordered McDonald’s on DoorDash to the White House to highlight his no tax on tips initiative. Seattle’s World Cup preparations continue. // Big Local: A Pierce County man attacked a goose in Milton. Left-wingers in Tukwila want an extension to the city’s ICE detention center ban. Spokesman-Review’s Gonzaga racism surge story is missing any evidence of the incidents it claims exist. // You Pick the Topic: The WNBA Commissioner says that a question about her future is sexist.

Odd Fellowship has  a long, proud history in the state of Texas, dating back to Lone Star Lodge No. 1 in Houston, the first lodge chartered outside the United States by the IOOF, in 1845, before Texas joined the union.  A big part of that history was San Antonio Lodge No. 11, only a few steps away from the Alamo, the cradle of Texan independence.  On April 11th, San Antonio Lodge No. 11 was rechartered by the Grand Lodge of Texas with eleven members.  Brother Daniel McGittrick joined us to preview the reinstitution of the lodge and give us the story of how it came to be as well as how the process worked for it to happen.  The Shoutout goes to *ANOTHER* new Encampment, this time Peoria No. 3 of Illinois.  Unlike many of the recent new Encampments, this one was spearheaded by older members who wanted to have their own Encampment to help support the Patriarchs Militant.  In the Shoutout, Toby gives an update on how the progressive Degrees are going in his associate lodge; Ainslie shares the cycle of Odd Fellowship he experienced participating as Noble Grand in the Funeral Ceremony and then, later in the day, attending a Degree Rally; Meredith gives props to the new Grand Master of Texas, Jason Ottwell, for performing the Installation of Officers for Dallas No. 44 the same day he was installed as Grand Master; and Daniel thanks three important Odd Fellows in Texas for their assistance and support of the recent growth: Charles Stephenson, John Woolsey, and Bruce Wayne Smith.  Special music for this episode was recorded by Toby Hanson.

Pine Island, Minnesota is the kind of idyllic Midwestern farm town that most people picture when they think of anywhere in the middle of the country: friendly people, a strong sense of community, and civic pride.  The town also had one other fixture that used to be common in every little town in the Midwest: an Odd Fellows lodge.  Unfortunately, the lodge had fallen on hard times.  Membership was low and the building was falling apart.  Evan Goranson and David Friese stepped in about a year and a half ago and started turning things around.  Sometimes that job was fun and easy, like getting people interested in sorting through old treasures in the building.  Sometimes it was more of a challenge than they wanted, like dealing with a leaking toilet.  Through it all, the lodge is prospering and starting to grow, having reconnected with its community.  The progress is significant and shows that with the right combination of new members, guidance from the Grand Lodge, and a can-do attitude, a lodge can be revived and start to thrive.  The Shoutout goes to a new lodge in Tennessee, Crockett Hall Lodge #59.  In this episode's Odd Podge, Meredith previews a special parade inclusion for the upcoming Pilgrimage to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, Ainslie shares another somber memorial service in Illinois, Evan expresses excitement for the first day over 70 degrees Farenheit for Minnesota and Wisconsin, David expresses gratitude both for the nine candidates poised to join his lodge and for being able to talk about it on the podcast, and Toby recounts his conversation with a Chief Patriarch about how to make his Encampment more interesting for its members.

Back in 2023, Chicago's city council voted to gradually raise the subminimum wage for tipped workers every July for five years until it matched the city's full minimum wage in 2028. Now the city council has voted to freeze the annual increases. We are joined by the Tribune's Jake Sheridan and the Reader's Katie Prout to discuss Mayor Johnson's plan to veto the vote. Plus, why did the city clear another encampment in Legion Park during the coldest week of the month, and how much did outside funding impact primary results?

West Point, 1779 rok.Polski pułkownik wraca z inspekcji fortyfikacji – zmęczony, w zabłoconych butach. Otwiera drzwi kwatery. Za jego biurkiem siedzi czarnoskóry ordynans. Ubrany w jego mundur. Z przyjaciółmi. Jedzą. Piją. Śmieją się. W XVIII-wiecznej armii kara za taką impertynencję to publiczna chłosta.Kościuszko roześmiał się. Zasalutował.

A homeless encampment is growing near the Seattle Center because the city says the property owner has to request it to be cleared. A federal judge ruled in favor of Washington legislators that denied press passes to media members. Guest: UW meteorologist Cliff Mass on what we can expect for tonight's storm. // Big Local: There’s been a spate of Pokemon card thefts across Pierce County. Tacoma residents are are butting heads with a pizza place that has very loud karaoke nights.

Sometimes the connections which bring people to Odd Fellowship are short and direct.  Sometimes they span a continent.  In Bing Martin's case, it was his friend Thomas Guilliams of St. Helena Lodge #167 in Northern California who prompted him to find a lodge near his home in Chicago.  That lodge turned out to be Irving Park Lodge #190.  When he first made contact with the lodge, he found the classic group of elderly men who kept the lodge going but had no ideas for how to grow or expand.  Through Thomas' guidance, Bing persisted, even going out to California to take his Degrees in the St. Helena lodge.  Eventually it paid off and now Irving Park is one of Illinois' fastest-growing lodges.  Bing and Thomas relate the winding, cross-country tale of how they both came to be Odd Fellows and how that tale also includes Kris Gratz of Virginia joining the Odd Fellows.  The Shoutout goes to yet another new Encampment (and another one in Oregon, no less): Wimawhala Encampment No. 6.  In the Odd Podge, Toby happily shares his experience at the Theta Rho Girls' Club Installation, Ainslie tells us about the escape room his lodge visited and their long-traveling member who has returned, Thomas thanks us for hosting him on the podcast, Bing shares his gratitude for the help he received in joining, and Meredith spills the beans about an upcoming event at the historic Texas Theater in Dallas (yes, *THAT* Texas Theater) featuring our favorite pro-fraternal movie, Join Or Die!

The most Seattle irony yet—a homeless encampment beside a CARE car outside the West Precinct. A Democrat running for Senate in a pivotal battleground state says she ‘regrets’ her vote on the Laken Riley Act. If you’re over 80, this diet habit could prevent you from reaching 100. // LongForm: GUEST: Mason County District Court Judge George Steele is sounding the alarms over a new rule being proposed by the State Supreme Court that would make us all less safe. // Quick Hit: An anti-ICE protest at an Enumclaw school spiraled out of control.

Isolationists are pretending that Israel dragged the United States into war and bad faith critics are still claiming the Trump Administration hasn’t detailed what the United States’ objectives in Iran are. // Seattleites give their thoughts on tipping and Jason explains why they’re wrong. // There’s a homeless encampment in Ballard that won’t go away. Seattle homeowners panic as online ‘can’t sell house’ searches spike.

This is the All Local 4pm update for February 18, 2025

A weekly news roundup with our reporter colleagues throughout the state. First, in early 2023, Rochester City Council purchased 15 self-contained heated and cooled units to be placed in the city's only sanctioned homeless encampment, Peace Village. But three years on, Peace Village is still vacant, and those shelters now sit in snow-covered storage at a city lot on Dewey Avenue. WXXI News' investigations and City Hall reporter Gino Fanelli explains why. Then, Lieutenant Governor Antonio Delgado ended his primary bid against Governor Kathy Hochul this week. WNYC's Jimmy Vielkind has the latest in the race for New York State's highest position. We end the week with a nod to Valentine's Day.

The new year finds us with a new co-host: Sister Meredith Moore of Dallas Lodge #44 in Texas.  Meredith brings a wonderful background in Odd Fellowship and in data collection and analysis to the show and we waste no time in putting her skills to work.  She developed and posted a survey on member burnout that got responses from 37 jurisdictions.  The results are, in most cases, not surprising.  Members like meaning, ritual, and regalia.  The real question is whether any action will be taken based on the data from the survey or if higher levels of leadership will just continue on as before.There's no Shoutout on this episode.  We would love it if you would share great things your lodge is doing so we can tell the rest of Odd Fellowship about it.  Email us at 3linksoddcast@gmail.com and give us the info about what you're doing.  In the Odd Podge, Ainslie shares the exciting news that his father joined the Odd Fellows, Toby talks about a visit from Michael and Ryan Crile of California (including a tour of the Washington Odd Fellows Museum), and Meredith previews the upcoming Encampment and Canton Degree Days at the end of January.

Just east of downtown St. Paul, near Pig's Eye Park along the river, people at a homeless encampment are facing this winter's first subzero temperatures. Recent reports say the camp has grown in the last six months and comes at a time when several St. Paul shelters say they're at capacity. It's a site that's far away from many homeless support services and organizations. Volunteers and the city's homeless response team have been regularly coming to the camp to provide supplies and support. Minnesota Now host Nina Moini spoke with St. Paul's director of safety and inspections, Angie Wiese, to learn more about the situation.For more information on warming spaces available in Ramsey County, visit the county's website.

The Flashpoints of Woke Capitalism: Occupy Wall Street and the SEC — Charles Gasparino — Gasparinoidentifies the 2008 financial crisis and the ensuing progressive populist backlash, including the Occupy Wall Streetencampment at Zuccotti Park, as pivotal flashpoints accelerating corporate woke adoption. CEOs embraced ESG and DEI frameworks, influenced by ideological groupthink at forums like Davos. Corporate leadership adopted stakeholder capitalism as a political defense mechanism against progressive lawmakers including Senator Elizabeth Warren and regulatory pressure. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), particularly under the Biden administration, has begun systematically enforcing woke corporate policies through regulatory authority. 1931

On Thursday morning, a judge denied a motion to dismiss a lawsuit brought by the city of Minneapolis against a landlord who allowed dozens of people to camp on a parking lot he owns. The city sued Hamoudi Sabri in September to force him to close the encampment. A few days later, the city cleared the encampment after a shooting there killed one person and injured six others. Sabri's lawyers argued the city could not move forward with the lawsuit without including the people who had been living in the encampment in the case. MPR News reporter Cari Spencer was at the courthouse during the hearing and joined MPR News host Nina Moini to explain.
