Floodmagedon and Bridge Suprise Sep 07, 2017

Show notes

The gang will talk about the official council response to Floodmaggedon 2017: The Floodening and Mayor Dilkens' eight point plan for escaping political embarrassment. Actually, maybe it's a nine point plan: we'll talk about the mayor's decision to scale back the $3 million Jackson Park Christmas Light display. He's cutting costs and downgrading the "WOW" factor from "Disney" to "Bob-Lo".
We'll also review and discuss the social media presence of the mayor and councillors. Our grading system doesn't include MySpace, which really puts Councillor Chris Holt at a disadvantage. His page of animated "Buffy The Vampire Slayer" GIFs was legendary back in the day.
If we have a chance we will squeeze in a discussion of the new season of everybody's favourite reality show: Essex Town Council.

Councillor Pay and A New Sound for RCP Aug 24, 2017

Show notes

On Rose City Politics we have a change up. Don is not writing this tease ensuring it is void of whatever futile attempts at humour are made. Guests hosts Sarah Morris and Kate Isley join Mark and Paul to give a perspective from everything the regular RCP panel is not. Topics include Downtown Living aka "running the gauntlet" and Mayor and Council salaries, where do candidates sign up or should we be running away screaming?

Chamber of Commerce says Minimum Wage Hike will cost jobs. Fortunately Windsor leaders only focus on assembly jobs, and robots work for free. Made in Windsor solution number 437. Mayor Dilken's doesn't show up at Pride Parade. Obviously he missed it trying to find parking downtown!!. (You knew that was coming). Should we raise the HST 1% to fund infrastructure? Speaking of Infrastructure, nobody on RCP is a racist. The "Alt Smart" groups that protest our weekly peaceful podcast and attack us viciously with bats, and shields, and knives should know that we have a permit to do this show. Did you know that? We have a permit. They don't have a permit, we do. We may talk about other stuff too!!
