Dear Listeners,

Thanks for tuning in. Much appreciation always. Key focus of this episode is how the world changes as Donald Trump becomes the 47th President of the USA.

And, what are the implications for Canada and the rest of the world. This leads us to what is going on currently with the Liberal Leadership race.

We close with a little chat about the recent fire that happened under the University Bridge where unhoused folks were trying to keep warm.

So much news...we touch the surface to make us think and to hopefully want to dig deeper into what's going on in our world. Exercising our democratic muscles; so important.

Support local media. Tune into local media. Be part of citizen media wherever you are.

Howdy Dear Listeners,

This month is flying by - and it is starting out me thinks like a lion - fires of all sorts - from the most devasting in real time in California - to the fires being set by a USA President Elect and Prime Minister Canada departing.

We popcorn away on these topics and closer to Saskatoon - in the form of snow and more.

Be sure to support community radio and local media. Especially radio stations like CFCR.ca 90.5 FM.

Warm regards,
Lenore Swystun with Christina Cherneskey

Happy New Year Listeners,

Here we go today, talking about one of our favourite pastimes - the whether.

And today, we had quite the whether event to talk about. Seen with whether radar. It landed.

Whether the Liberal Party of Canada can get their poop in a group and find a new leader amidst Justin Trudeau's announced resignation.

Whether Pierre Poilievre can continue his momentum in the polls now that his main target is gone.

Whether the NDP can do anything different, save their own leadership stepping down and making was for a race in the hopes of having a different political result.

And, whether proroguing government is a good strategy amidst Trump being sworn in soon and and and

And, whether this whether event will bring about some different whether systems by our provincial government and local governments.

James Yachyshen and Gordon Androsoff join me in unpacking what this means.

Have a listen. Share. Support local media and community eadio/podcast shows just like this.

Thanks for tuning in.

Dear Civically Speaking Listeners,

You are in for a treat. Tasha Kheiriddin, National Post Columnist, Geo-political analyst, lawyer, authour and more, joins Dr. Bohdan Kordan, Professor Emeritus, Political Studies, International Relations, St. Thomas Moore College, focusing on nationalism and ethnic conflicts, politics of state/minority relations, and Canadian foreign policy.

James Yachyshen joins as my co-host today (regrets from Christina Cherneskey).

We go deep into the geopolitical dynamics taking place - especially with major shifts in nation-state leadership amplified by Trump being re-elected a second time.

Thank you to Tasha and Bohdan for their wonderful insights. Much to think about in this shifting world we live in.
