Manitoba is the epicentre of the wildfires in Canada. Thousands are out of their homes. Some have been sent as far away as Niagara Falls. At least 20 communities in Saskatchewan are also under evacuation orders, and thousands of people in Alberta have had to leave.The danger isn't only the flames – the air quality from wildfire smoke is leading to health concerns.And: The first ministers are meeting in Saskatoon, pitching their ideas to Prime Minister Mark Carney for nation-building projects.Also: Russia has made its proposal for ending the war in Ukraine. It includes demands for Ukraine to concede several regions of territory, and for the lifting of sanctions. And those are just to start. The talks today lasted around an hour. The two countries did agree to exchange the bodies of 6,000 soldiers killed in action.Plus: The man accused of setting people on fire in Boulder has been charged with a hate crime, two UNESCO Geoparks in Canada are at risk of losing their designations, and more.

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we were all but ready to take off for the holidays but they had to squeeze just a little bit more breaking new out of us. From Ottawa, there may be a change in government, or a change in prime minister, or a change in something, we don't know! We also don't know what happened with the Canada Post strike that was suddenly over this week, but we're going to find out about that too!! This Thursday, December 19, at 5 pm, Scotty Hertz and Adam A. Donaldson will discuss: Chrystia-Mas Comes Early. Just a normal Monday on Parliament Hill, it was the second last day of the fall sitting and the release of the Fall Economic Statement was all that was on the agenda. And then Chystia Freeland quit as finance minister and all hell broke loose! Almost everything else Monday, including a First Ministers' Meeting in Toronto, was blown off the front-page with the possibility that this was the end for Justin Trudeau, and as we go to air we can only imagine what's going down next. Is Trudeau getting canned before the holidays? Strike a Post! After over a month, workers for Canada Post went back to their jobs this week and not altogether willingly after the national labour board said that both sides were too far apart to make a deal in the short-term possible. What's been lost in the concern for the on-time arrival of parcels, government documents and holiday treats are the stakes of this strike, which is really nothing less than the future of Canada Post. This week, Remegius Cheeke, the president Guelph-based Canadian Union of Postal Workers Local 546, will remind us. Open Sources is live on CFRU 93.3 fm and cfru.ca at 5 pm on Thursday.

We are one month (or in Welsh units, two First Ministers) on from the 2024 General Election, and finishing our mini-series of analyses into the results in each of the constituent nations of the United Kingdom with a look to the North to try and understand more about the people and priorities of Scotland. For well over a decade the central debate has revolved around the country's constitution future inside or outside both the British and European Unions. However, the emergence of a successful UK Labour Party in England has been mirrored by a resurgence of the Scottish Party, while myriad forced and unforced errors have weakened the once all-powerful SNP. So how did Labour make such a comeback, where next for the SNP, how will the Scottish Tories build on their remaining support, and what future the Greens, Lib Dems, and Reform? And at the heart of it, what are the Scottish people looking for in their national and union leadership? To discuss we are joined by Dr Fraser McMillan of Edinburgh University and the Scottish Election Study.

We are joined by Welsh Affairs Editor at WalesOnline, eponymous author of the Will Hayward Newsletter, and 'serious journalist' Will Hayward. Not only was Will one of the journalists who most closely covered the national & union governments' approach to the pandemic but he also iiterally wrote the book on it in the form of 'Lockdown Wales'.We talk about the key points covered by the inquiry, the points a union-wide inquiry will be unlikely to cover at all, and what the testimony reveals about how the government acted in face of an unprecedented crisis.

Peckford was born in Whitbourne, Newfoundland, on August 27, 1942, and grew up in Whitbourne, Marystown, and Lewisporte. He holds a Bachelor of Education degree, having also completed postgraduate work in English Literature, Education, Psychology, and French Literature. Prior to entering politics, he was a high school teacher in rural Newfoundland. He was first elected to the House of Assembly in 1972 at the age of twenty-nine and was appointed parliamentary assistant to the premier, Honourable Frank Moores, in 1973. The following year he was appointed minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing and in 1976 held the portfolios of minister of: Mines and Energy; and Rural and Northern Development. At the age of thirty-six, he was elected leader of the provincial Progressive Conservative Party and premier of the Province, becoming the youngest first minister in over 100 years. It was Pickford's administration that fought for and achieved a new, ground-breaking arrangement with the federal government called the Atlantic Accord, which has become the template for all exploration and development of offshore oil and gas resources in Canada. It is under this arrangement that the oil fields of Hibernia, Terra Nova, and White Rose have been developed and are producing today. It is as a result of the revenues from these developments that the province of Newfoundland and Labrador has achieved “have” status, the first time since becoming a part of Canada in 1949. Peckford retired from public life in 1989 and established his own consulting business serving government and business clients in North America and Europe. In 1982, Peckford received the Vanier Award as an outstanding young Canadian. That same year he was sworn to the Privy Council of Canada by her majesty the Queen, and he published a book in 1983 entitled The Past in the Present expressing his views on Newfoundland a...

Andrew Marr interviewed Damian Hinds (he’s the current Education Secretary-nope me neither) and Nigel Farage on his show this Sunday. Both were on to talk about the European Parliamentary elections. Both had to try and do this without the benefit of their parties issuing manifestos. Lesley picks apart the significance of this and the flaws at the heart of the UK's political system which mean the party of government and the party leading in the polls for that election can get away with it. Sticking with the Euro elections, the Sunday Mail recently endorsed the Scottish Green Party, breaking a long tradition of supporting Labour. We discuss, even if this was a cynical vote splitting move by the Sunday Mail, why Yes supporters could vote Green, and how quickly the political landscape on the climate emergency has changed. As the commemoration of the 20th anniversary of the return of the Scottish Parliament roll on two former First Ministers, Jack McConnell and Henry McLeish both came out in favour of reform. McConnell, perhaps seduced by his time in the Lords, wanted the creation of a non-elected second chamber. McLeish, hankering after a more European style assembly, suggested moving to an increased number of MSPs by bringing in the Single Transferable Vote system. We reflect on both these proposals, more favourably on one than the other. Theresa May will be bringing back the EU Withdrawal Bill to Westminster on June the third. This " Great Repeal Bill" is the one that enshrines the power grab from Holyrood. We return to, not just to the specifics of the bill, but the underlying message it contains about Scotland's place in the UK. As per usual there's a smattering of other nonsense, mainly on Highland League football, Chinese takeaways and clip on sunglasses. Wee note from Lesley; I checked on who controls Oil and Gas Licensing and I was wrong. It's still the UK Government via the Oil and Gas Authority quango they set up — it's licensing for onshore oil and gas (basically fracking) that was devolved in 2018. Apologies.

The Roy Green Show Podcast   There are growing tensions in Montreal at the First Ministers' conference. Brian Peckford, the former Newfoundland & Labrador Premier, gives us his view of the bitterness which exists between Ottawa and provincial capitals today. Is this the way things have always been? Later, Lawrence Solomon joins Roy to discuss what would happen if Alberta turned separatist. In a Financial Post column, Solomon argues that Alberta would have great leverage over the rest of Canada as an independent nation, regardless of being landlocked. The mood going in to the First Ministers' conference in Montreal was not particularly positive. Multiple provinces challenged the Trudeau government on issues such as carbon tax and the lack of a proper plan for Canada's tremendous energy resources.  Bill C-69 a particularly contentious issue. Scott Moe, Premier of Saskatchewan, tells Roy his takeaway from the conference. An increasing number of nations are refusing to ratify the U.N. Compact for global migration, including the United States, Australia, Austria, Hungary and Poland. Canada will sign the compact. Conservative Party leader Andrew Scheer has spoken out against it. Maxime Bernier, founder and leader of the People's Party of Canada, is also outspokenly against the compact, and he tells us why. And then Roy speaks with Professor Salim Mansur of the University of Western Ontario, who has received a great deal of attention for his views about the Compact for migration.  He is concerned that Canada will become part of a borderless 21st Century world under U.N. control in which there will be no room for a free press or freedom of speech. Meanwhile, Switzerland has decided it too will not ratify the U.N. Compact on Migration.  The country was supportive and was prepared to sign on, but now will instead wait for the outcome of the debates on the issue in the Swiss parliament. Luzi Stamm, Member of the Swiss parliament for the Swiss People's Party, explains why there was this change of heart. Guests: Brian Peckford, former Premier of Newfoundland & Labrador Lawrence Solomon, Financial Post columnist Scott Moe, Premier of Saskatchewan Maxime Bernier, leader of the People's Party of Canada Professor Salim Mansur, of the University of Western Ontario Luzi Stamm, Member of the Swiss parliament for the Swiss People's Party See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
