CKMS News -2024-11-15- Cambridge manufacturer to be protested in Canada-wide day of action targeting war plane supply chain

CKMS News -2024-11-14- Cambridge manufacturer to be protested in Canada-wide day of action targeting war plane supply chain.

dan kellar
Cambridge, ON – On November 16th, a “F-35 day-of-action” will be held across the country, to highlight Canadian complicity in the ongoing violence in Palestine and Lebanon by the Israeli military, and to demand a full two-way arms embargo involving Israel. 

Arms Embargo Now, the network organizing the protests have focused on the supply chain for the F-35 war plane, which is tied to the death of thousands of civilians and widespread destruction of civilian infrastructure including shelters, schools, and hospitals. In Waterloo Region at least 6 manufacturing facilities are linked to the F-35, including local protest target, the PCC Aerostructures’ Centra plant in Cambridge.

While federal liberals have put a stop to some weapons exports. CKMS News asked Liberal MPs in Cambridge Valerie Bradford and Brian May for comment but did not receive any response. CKMS News’ requests to PCC Aerostructures’ Centra for comment also went unanswered.

This show features an interview with Aamina Parkar, an organiser with the grassroots group Neighbours for Palestine Waterloo Region. Parkar discusses the day-of-action and other tactics that are being used to pressure the Canadian government.

Waterloo proposing “gentle density” zoning changes

CKMS News -2024-11-12- Waterloo proposing “gentle density” zoning changes.

dan kellar
Waterloo, ON –
Aiming to add housing units while “gently” densifying low-rise residential neighbourhoods, the city of Waterloo is
proposing changes to its zoning bylaws and official plan, allowing 4 units and buildings of up to 4 stories on every plot of residential land in the city.  Parking minimums will also be reduced under the plan while maximum building height will increase.

City officials are requesting residents provide feedback on the proposals through the EngageWR web portal ahead of a vote in city council in December.  Kitchener city council enacted similar changes in March of 2024.

This show features interviews with City of Waterloo planner Tristin Deveau, and Meg Walker, an eviction prevention worker at the Social Development Council of Waterloo Region. Deveau speaks on the details and motivations for the changes, and concerns some residents have brought forward. Walker responds to the proposals and discusses other measures the city could take to reduce housing costs.

Today we were supposed to have a web conference with Claes Nördling of Retrograþ, but technical difficulties prevented us from connecting. And those technical difficulties extended to the broadcast and video, so there’s no podcast or video today. Retrograþ is performing at Revive Karaoke on Sunday 17 November at Noon, and Claes will be joining us in the studio on Monday 18 November 2024 for CKMS Community Connections at 11:00am, so join us then!

Today was also the first day of our 2024 Fall Fundraiser! You can support Radio Waterloo (and maybe help us overcome those technical difficulties) by making a donation. Our goal is $1000 over the next two weeks. $5, $10, $100 or more all helps offset our operational costs. A donation of $24 or more will also get you a membership in Radio Waterloo, and a Host Your Own Show certificate, so you can go on the air yourself. You can donate at https://radiowaterloo.ca/give.

NO CRAP RADIO VER. 2.21 SAT. NOV. 9/24 12AM

Some 40’s jazz to start.  It always amazes me how talented musicians have been. Artie Shaw was one of Americas finest arrangers.  400 years from now his work will be viewed as modern classical.  The completely forgotten Boswell Sisters who have yet to be equaled in their stylistic approach, an early blues diva and a standard from Joe Turner.

This weeks movie recommendation Wild in the Streets.  A 1968 milestone dystopian vision of how the young come to power in the future.  They eventually start dosing anyone over 45 with lsd.  Fourteen and fight!

Some ugly songs about death and America.

Ex Airplane guitarist Jorma Kaukonen and vocal gymnastics by Ellen Macillwaine.

Poetry/music from three Canadians and some truth from the islands.

This weeks recommended site. bbc.uk.  boys from the blackstuff. A gritty 5 episode tv play written by Alan Bleasdale.  Life viewed from the perspective of the poor.  Gripping and heartrending.  Early 80’s.

No ska tonight.  They’re locked up under the stairs for being upstarts with a bad attitude. Sharp dressers though…

artie shaw-st james infirmary 

boswell sisters-It don’t mean a thing if it ain’t got that swing

bessie smith-do your duty  

j turner-st louis blues

john martyn-john wayne

nice cave-tupelo

violent femme-hallowed ground

joan osbourne-the man in the long black coat

will white-mournin doves

be good tanya-in my time of dying

johnsmith-ring that bell

tracy nelson-baby please don’t go

jorma kaukonen-another mans done gone

ellen mcillwaine-down so low

harry manx-lay down my worries

john mayall-sensitive kind

chris whitley-radar

matt good-weapon

doors-the wasp

hip-the luxury

marley-zimbabwe

ub40-1 in 10 dub

marley peter tosh bunny wailer-Downpressor Man  

toots-living in the ghetto

Fundraising is starting up so go here to help us out.

6m12s Katherine Loveys tells us about Parents for Community Living. It started 1986, now there are 13 locations in Waterloo Region providing accomodation for individuals with intellectual disabilities. There are no longer provincial institutions, these individuals are now living in their own home communities. Katherine tells us about her own journey into PCL, and how it has changed over the years. Katherine talks about the various services provided at the homes, including respite programs .
14m08s Katherine introduces the Stand Up For PCL fundraiser. The goal is raising funds to build additional affordable housing. Katherine explains some of the previous work done to provide housing at the Bridgeport and Lancaster facility. St. Paul’s church wanted to repurpose their building, which was torn down and replaced with a 48 unit apartment building, of which PCL has ten units. There is also a commercial kitchen for community events. The other 38 units are available to people on the Region of Waterloo affordable housing program, but there are still some 6,000 people on the wait list, not including the 700 people with developmental disabilities on PCL‘s wait list. Katherine supplies more details on the comedy night.
21m29s Partners for Community Living is offering two free tickets to the comedy fundraiser to the first person to put their name in the Chat Box on our Listen Live page! Be sure to write in that you want the tickets to the Stand Up for PCL comedy show.

There are cooking classes, and PCL has a partnership with Second Harvest, which provides food for their community kitchen. The community hub is available for use community groups. Contact PCL at info@pclkw.org.

30m22s Katherine thanks the many sponsors of the Stand Up for PCL comedy night. There are still sponsorships opportunities, and they’re still accepting items for the silent auction. Katherine explains how the silent auction works.
32m48s Katherine discusses the privatization of health care, and how PCL is regulated in the sector. Private firms offering these services are not regulated as well. Katherine says that Developmental Services Ontario is where people can access care-giving services. But there’s a waiting list, 700 people in Waterloo Region; the waiting list across Ontario is 19,000 people. One of the challenges is finding affordable housing; another is finding employees. The pandemic made it more difficult to find people in health care and education. There are many specialty professions required, but there’s always room for volunteers.
39m43s William Kangaroo

43m42s Talking about the different awards that Parents for Community Living has received. And there are health and wellness activities for both staff and the community, such as last year’s “Hot Tub Time Machine.” The employees are very engaged with the people they support, to help them fulfill their dreams and goals. Katherine thanks all the employees for what can be a thankless job. The work can be emotionally taxing, but it is very rewarding work. PCL is a major employer in Waterloo Region, and also a major consumer at grocery stores, and even purchasing real estate. There is some employee turnover, but many people have worked there for years. Katherine lists some of the requirements for employment at PCL.
50m17s Katherine summarizes the Stand Up for PCL one more time.

NO CRAP RADIO VER. 2.06 SAT. Nov. 2/24 12am

Reggae to start us up tonight ok?  

You know going through all that time in the sixties when you maybe got a bag that was half seeds from your local seller to now when you can light up a spliff of government approved and taxed pot is quite a big step.

Lots of people went to jail so you can sit there and enjoy some tunes.  If you can, apply for a parole tomorrow. Do it. It’s your right.

I hope.

This weeks recommended movie Conspiracy Theory with Mel Gibson.  They don’t want you to see this.

A twisted version of a pulp song.

A sixteen year old girl that sounds old and wise.

“Great sorrows cannot speak”. John Donne

Looking for some slam poets to submit their spoken words.  If you can take a minute and give wisdom I want to put it in the show.  Short and sweet like a razor fight in a dark room type of thing.

CKMS News -2024-10-30- Senior Women Living Together matches housemates to counter rising costs of living.

dan kellar
Kitchener, ON –
As landlords continue to raise rental prices across the country, many are being left behind. According to
rentals.ca, average rent in Canada has been increased by 25% since 2021. For some, the result is homelessness, and Waterloo Region is no exception – a recent report shows at least a 129% rise in chronic homelessness here since 2020.

“I knew I was going to be homeless at some point if I did not do something” says Pat Dunn, a widowed retiree now living in Peterborough. Dunn is the founder and the executive director of the non-profit organization Senior Women Living Together. Through subscriber generated profiles on their website, the organization finds matches for senior women, who then meet up to discuss living as housemates.  

This show features an interview with Pat Dunn who discusses her own brush with homelessness and rising rent led her to helping others in the same situation. The organization is currently promoting their free service in Waterloo Region.

CKMS News -2024-10-25- New sanitary master plan aims to keep the sewage flowing through Kitchener

CKMS News -2024-10-25- New sanitary master plan aims to keep the sewage flowing through Kitchener

dan kellar
Kitchener, ON – The city of Kitchener’s new
integrated sanitary master plan has been officially implemented and with over 800km of sewers, 23 pumping stations, 1300 maintenance holes, and a growing population, the city is reminding residents to watch what they put down the drains. 

In a recent press release, Kitchener Mayor Berry Vrbanovic said “the integrated sanitary master plan ensures that we can reliably meet the needs of Kitchener residents today and in the future. I encourage everyone to help us keep maintenance costs as low as possible and disruptions infrequent by only flushing or pouring suitable material down our pipes.”

This show features an interview with Nick Gollan, the Manager of Planning and Programs for Sanitary and Stormwater Utilities in the city of Kitchener. Gollan discusses the new sanitary master plan, the “3 p’s” for flushing, and the maintenance required to keep the system, which includes some infrastructure nearing 100 years old, flowing.

Kitchener, ON –
The Kitchen KW has been busy since opening their new studio and creators space in downtown Kitchener on October 1st.  While the company has been organising hip-hop shows since March 2024, the new space will further integrate the organization with local music scenes through a dedicated studio, low-cost artistic development and production assistance, and monthly workshops.

The new studio is located at 44 Gaukel, a city of Kitchener owned space which is operated by ArtsBuild Ontario. For the Kitchen KW, the new space gives more options for local hip-hop artists to emerge in a city which is often dominated by singer-song-writer and rock acts. 

This show features an interview with The Kitchen KW CEO Aiden Rusten, who is known in the locally as AJ.  AJ speaks about the company he co-founded, the first month in the new studio, and how The Kitchen KW is working to expand the local hip-hop scene.

Three people standing in front of a black and white checkerboard wall in The Kitchen KW's studio at 44 Gaukel. On the wall there is a framed record picture and and the word "billboard". AJ is on the right of the picture wearing a black spyder touque, a camo sweater, a white shirt, and a gold necklace. Beside him is a man in a black touque and a grey sweatshirt, and his hands covering most of his face. Beside him a man with flowing brown hair and a red sweatshirt. Behind the three on a desk, there is some musical equipment including a speaker and a piano keyboard.
