Dear Listeners,
Thanks for tuning in to podcasts like this and community radio stations like CFCR where shows like this first air in CFCR lands.
With returning panel members, Dr. Tom Wolf and Gordon Androsoff, we begin today’s conversation in the fields… with fertilizer costs and the very real impacts of global conflict on supply chains, pricing, and decision-making on the ground. What’s happening internationally is not abstract… it’s shaping choices being made right now across the Prairies.
From there, we weave our way back home. Through conversation with voices in Saskatoon and Nelson, BC, we explore how these global pressures are landing locally… in our communities, our cities, and our everyday lives. We talk about downtowns in transition, questions of safety and belonging, and how infrastructure and public systems are being stretched in new ways.
We dig into what feels out of alignment… From overpass strikes and infrastructure stress, to the ongoing recalibration of major city-building projects like Saskatoon's recent switch up re its downtown arean project.
This episode, threads global conflict… to fertilizer costs… to farms… to cities… to the way we live together.
Have a listen.
Support community radio wherever you are… and here in Saskatoon, that’s CFCR 90.5 FM.
Civically Speaking,
Lenore Swystun with regrets from Christina Cherneskey
