Kitchener, ON – Kitchener has joined 21 other cities in Canada and 210 cities in 24 countries around the planet in being named a Tree City of the World by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and The Arbour Day foundation. The designation reflects the city’s efforts in “tree care, policy development, community engagement and maintaining a healthy urban canopy”. Nearby, both Hamilton and Cambridge also hold the leafy designation.
In a press release announcing the designation, Kitchener Mayor Berry Vrbanovic said “As we look to celebrate Earth Day later this month, this recognition is a wonderful indicator that we’re moving in the right direction for our community, our forest and our planet!”
This show features an interview with Joshua Shea, the Manager of Forestry and Natural Area Management at the city of Kitchener. Shea reflects on the Tree City of the World designation, speaks about an upcoming free tree giveaway, and discusses his most appreciated trees. For more information visit kitchener.ca/trees

Have to tell everyone around here that I’ve been very impressed with the quality of music that the djs put out.Isn’t it refreshing to be treated as intelligent adults as opposed a commodity that can’t wait for the next big thing to be played by Pete and Brenda in the morning or the rocking drive time with Dave in the afternoon?God I hate the corporate conglomerates that control mostly everything.And radio stars.Have I mentioned how I Hate radio stars?

The first episode of #AltElxn2025 aims to illuminate the election issues in British Columbia, particularly focusing on Vancouver Island. The objective is to be part of a series of programs from across Canada that will inform listeners about national issues within the context of a local riding, in this case, Saanich-Gulf Islands. Notably, this is also the “Greenest” riding in Canada, as both the National and Provincial Green parties have held seats here for about a decade. As you will see, while the Provincial Greens recently reelected a green MLA, the National Green candidate, Elizabeth May, is facing a tough battle this time.
This is Episode One of #AltElxn 2025, airing on CKMS-FM at 9:30am on Tuesday, 8 April 2025. #AltElxn 2025 is a four episode series syndicated from the NCRA/ANREC and airs on CKMS-FM as part of Meet The Candidate: 2025 Federal Election, weekdays from 9:02am to 10:00am from 7 to 29 April 2025.

It takes thousands of dollars a year to keep our station on air.Every presenter here pays a fee depending on their airtime.We do receive some financing from government systems and occasionally receive various grants.No one here gets payed.
Most of our expenses at this point are fees we are obligated to pay for, licensing as one example, and equipment for our broadcast capabilities.This includes studio and tower systems and behind this all the computer systems that makes it all go.
To be honest our equipment is almost old enough to be rejected by a museum and as it so happens it has almost reached its end of life cycle.Lots of it has been used since the times we were associated with the university and the replacement parts are getting very scarce.The upgrade replacement systems are not that difficult to integrate but they cost lots.Broadcast quality gear isn’t like your home systems.
This year the station will be reaching out to our loyal listeners to campaign for the upgrade and operating funds needed.Don’t forget every independently operated station across Canada has a fundraising plan in play.I want to know what you want us to do to raise this money.Because it will be your money you will be giving.
If we throw a party will you come?If we give away swag will you bid for it in an auction?If you own a bar will you host a fundraising night?
Will you reach out from one of the various communities that have their music played and throw a dance?
How about donating a couple of your locally made art pieces for us to sell through our site?
You can turn to us any hour of the day and be informed and entertained by people who live right in your community and it’s up to you to help.Yeah, it’s always difficult to ask for peoples help but we have a long tradition of grassroots support and we want the station to remain that voice of freedom right here.
Not only do we need listener support we also need the stability that comes with working with our business community to let their potential clients know they are here with them.We can offer a unique fit to your business in reaching an informed vibrant listenership that prefers dealing locally.
Oh, and see that button on the left of the page? It says donate and it’s very easy to just give us some cash.Go ahead, push it.
That’s it for this week.Next up is who we are.

“We all came out to . . . make records with a mobile”, to quote Deep Purple’s Smoke On The Water lyric as a description of this set made up of tunes by various artists recorded using The Rolling Stones Mobile Studio aka the mobile ‘unit’ or ‘the Rolling truck Stones thing’ as further described in the lyrics to Smoke On The Water. Here’s a couple videos about the mobile, total time about 15 minutes.
My track-by-track tales follow the bare-bones list.
1. Dire Straits, Telegraph Road (from Alchemy – Dire Straits Live)
2. Bob Marley and The Wailers, No Woman No Cry (from Live!)
3. Santana, Dance Sister Dance (live, from Moonflower)
4. Ten Years After, Help Me (from Recorded Live)
5. Led Zeppelin, The Rover
6. Fleetwood Mac, Hypnotized
7. Nazareth, Silver Dollar Forger (Parts 1 & 2)
8. Deep Purple, When A Blind Man Cries
9. Iron Maiden, Tailgunner
10. The Rolling Stones, Let It Rock (live, Leeds University 1971)
11. Bad Company, Silver, Blue & Gold
12. The Who, Water (live, 1971 appeared on Who’s Next deluxe expanded release)
13. Wishbone Ash, Baby What You Want Me To Do (from Live Dates)
14. Dire Straits, Solid Rock/Going Home – Theme From ‘Local Hero’ (from Alchemy – Dire Straits Live)
1. Dire Straits, Telegraph Road (from Alchemy – Dire Straits Live) . . . Epic storytelling track released on the band’s 1984 live album, originally on the studio record Love Over Gold from 1982.
2. Bob Marley and The Wailers, No Woman No Cry (from Live!) . . . Originally on the 1974 studio album Natty Dread, this soulful version from 1975’s Live! has become, to many, the definitive one, evidenced by its appearance on various Marley compilations.
3. Santana, Dance Sister Dance (live, from Moonflower) . . . From the 1977 release, a part studio, part live album, the live album recorded using the Stones’ mobile unit. A blend of Latin rhythms, fusion, and extended jamming; intoxicating, as much of Santana’s best work tends to be.
4. Ten Years After, Help Me (from Recorded Live) . . . A driving riff by guitarist/singer Alvin Lee on the Willie Dixon tune as interpreted not only by TYA but by blues great Sonny Boy Williamson II aka Rice Miller, from whom TYA drew inspiration. A raw, gritty, blues-rock odyssey from TYA’s 1973 album.
5. Led Zeppelin, The Rover . . . I love the sort of, how would I describe it, ‘backwards entry’ of the killer riff off the initial drumbeat on this one from 1975’s Physical Graffiti. To my ears, it’s like it comes in from where one might not expect yet when it comes, there it is as if that’s where it obviously should have been. It all works and tends to conjure up in me an image of a plane coming in for a landing for some reason, not sure why but I feel like I’m flying when I listen to it.
6. Fleetwood Mac, Hypnotized . . . Trippy, dreamy laid back groove, a mesmerizing and, er, hypnotizing track that is one of my favorites from the middle period of Fleetwood Mac featuring Bob Welch on guitar, often lead vocals and songwriting duties. This one’s from the 1973 album Mystery To Me. Two years and one album later, out was Welch, in came guitarist Lindsey Buckingham and singer Stevie Nicks and Fleetwood Mac became a pop-rock phenomenon. I like that version of the band but am still partial to the initial Peter Green-fronted early blues years and the, I think, underappreciated Welch lineup.
7. Nazareth, Silver Dollar Forger (Parts 1 & 2) . . . A heavy riff rocker from the 1974 album Rampant, produced by Roger Glover of Deep Purple bass-playing fame. He was at the helm of several Nazareth albums, others being the previous releases to Rampant and among the band’s most successful – Razamanaz and Loud ‘n’ Proud.
8. Deep Purple, When A Blind Man Cries . . . B-side to the single Never Before, issued from 1972’s Machine Head album that yielded Purple’s signature song, Smoke On The Water which, perhaps strangely, none of the band members apparently thought would be a hit although it obviously became an iconic rock track. Never Before made No. 4 in Switzerland and No. 35 in the UK while Smoke On The Water made the top five in most countries, No. 3 in the US and No. 2 in Canada although never No. 1. As for When A Blind Man Cries, it’s a beautiful blues ballad. It was recorded for Machine Head but according to singer Ian Gillan, guitarist Ritchie Blackmore ”no like” (despite his typically fine playing) so it didn’t make the album until subsequent remastered re-releases. The song has, since Blackmore’s departure from Purple in the mid-1990s, being replaced by Steve Morse and then Simon McBride, been regularly played in concert.
9. Iron Maiden, Tailgunner . . . Pulsating war-themed lead cut from the 1990 album No Prayer For The Dying, recorded in bass player Steve Harris’s barn using the Stones mobile. Maiden was attempting – and succeeding at, via mobile studio methods or otherwise – to achieve a more earthy, stripped down production sound within the typical Maiden metal method.
10. The Rolling Stones, Let It Rock (live, Leeds University 1971) . . . Great version of the Chuck Berry classic from the Stones’ 1971 so-called Goodbye Britain tour where they were escaping the onerous UK taxman, eventually resulting in them being at a villa in southern France, using their mobile truck again, to come up with 1972’s classic Exile On Main St. album. I first heard this version of a song the Stones have done various times on the terrific Get Your Leeds Lungs Out! bootleg I still own. The album has subsequently been officially released, with Let It Rock also included on the Rarities 1971-2003 compilation.
11. Bad Company, Silver, Blue & Gold . . . Not a single but could have been and a Bad Co. fan favorite by all accounts, and definitely one of mine by the band. It’s from the 1976 album Run With The Pack.
12. The Who, Water (live, 1971 appeared on Who’s Next deluxe expanded release, 2003) . . . Stirring, gritty vocals by Roger Daltrey on a relatively obscure track The Who did in typically raw fashion during a London gig. It appeared on later, expanded versions of the Who’s Next album. Explosive stuff, Daltrey rising above but also enveloped in that all-encompassing volcanic Who sound.
13. Wishbone Ash, Baby What You Want Me To Do (from Live Dates) . . . Wishbone Ash was a for the most part progressive hard rock band but they had roots in the British blues and here they are on their 1973 album Live Dates with an extended, more electrified version of the Jimmy Reed tune – Ash-ified as it were while retaining key elements of the original.
14. Dire Straits, Solid Rock/Going Home – Theme From ‘Local Hero’ (from Alchemy – Dire Straits Live) . . . Coming full circle to close the set with Dire Straits live, putting the songs together as they appeared in order on Alchemy. Solid Rock, taken from the studio album Making Movies, is paired with the majestic instrumental Going Home from the soundtrack to the 1983 movie Local Hero, composed by Straits’ leader Mark Knopfler.
Randall Williams, the People’s Party of Canada candidate for Kitchener South — Hespeler, came into the studio on Monday 7 April 2025 to talk to the voters. He was accompanied by Kevin Dupuis, PPC candidate for Kitchener — Conestoga.

In 2019, She Is Your Neighbour was launched in the form of a blog series and social media campaign. Women’s Crisis Services of Waterloo Region (WSCWR) asked community leaders to share their perspectives on domestic violence and explain why they are invested in ending it. These community leaders became ambassadors of the She Is Your Neighbour project. Together, WCSWR and these leaders explored different types of abuse and challenged the misconception that domestic violence refers only to physical violence. Many ambassadors shared stories of emotional, psychological, and financial violence that they have witnessed or experienced.
In fall 2020, the She Is Your Neighbour podcast was released! In the podcast, WCSWR takes a deep dive into domestic violence. Through thought-provoking discussions WCSWR addresses hard topics like domestic violence and the drug trade, violence against Indigenous women and girls, challenges for transgender youth seeking support, and more.
Season Two was produced in 2021. Throughout this season, we build on topics we explored in Season One and fill in the blanks by covering new topic areas. Join us as we explore the realities and complexities of domestic violence.
Our goal is to increase awareness and understanding of domestic violence through thought-provoking discussions, highlighting groups who are disproportionately impacted. We all have a role to play in ending domestic violence.
She Is Your Neighbour is hosted by Jenna Mayne.
She Is Your Neighbour is now in its seventh season, and re-airing on CKMS-FM on Tuesdays from 10:00am to 11:00am starting with Season One in April 2025.
What Next?
WCSWR encourages you to get involved! Read a blog story, tune into the podcast, buy a book, start conversations, and use the hashtag #SheIsYourNeighbour. We can’t do this without you! We all have a role to play in ending domestic violence.
What is Domestic Violence?
There are many forms of domestic violence, all of which include attempts to maintain power and control over the thoughts, beliefs and behaviour of a woman by creating fear and/or dependency. All forms of abuse result in the woman feeling powerless, unequal and unsafe.
Forms of Domestic Violence

Emotional
Physical
Psychological

Know the signs
Signs of domestic abuse include but are not limited to:
Insults or put downs, name calling

Physical assault
Control over finances
Unkept promises of change
We all have a role to play in ending domestic violence

Waterloo, ON – The city of Waterloo has unveiled a new tool to support the sensory needs of community members while visiting city facilities, the sensory backpack. Packed with items to help individuals reduce or increase sensory input, such as noise cancelling headphones, sunglasses, and fidget tools, the new initiative was launched on April 2nd, World Autism Awareness day.
The backpacks also include information about Waterloo’s inclusion services, and items for self-regulation and communication such as a timer, a drawing pad, and Picture Exchange Communications System (PECS), which allows folks to communicate through pictures.
A three-headed monster mash featuring 1980 albums by Teenage Head and Talking Heads plus Headstones’ 2022 release Flight Risk. To quote the opening line from Teenage Head’s Disgusteen: Nice day for a party, isn’t it? Which I did a fair bit of with Frantic City by Teenage Head and Talking Heads’ Remain In Light as a soundtrack during college daze, including seeing Teenage Head live when they played at my school.

This weeks book: The little book of wisdom by the Dali Lama.
Perhaps the most compassionate human ever.
I felt humbled by reading it. ($1 at a yard sale!)
“But history does matter.There is a line connecting the Armenians and the Jews, Cambodians and Rwandans. There are obviously more, but, how much genocide can one sentence handle.”Chris Bohjalian
A mass grave was found with aid workers murdered with their hands handcuffed behind them in Gaza.
Where is the world court.Where is the outrage?
We are too intimidated to send in the troops to protect our fellow man again.(Let’s build a casino instead.)

dan kellar Baden, ON – Another round of public consultations has wrapped up regarding the Prime Ministers’ Path project in Baden. A list of recommendations on possible next steps for the controversial statue project will be delivered to Wilmot council at a special meeting on May 12th.
The most recent round of consultations were accompanied with the creation of a 12 member working group made up of residents who worked on the draft recommendations for the project. The draft recommendations are focused on governance and project oversight, funding, inclusion, education, location, and the project’s place in an era of truth and reconciliation.
This show features an interview with Denise Soueidan-O’Leary, the co-lead facilitator of the public engagement, and a project manager at the consulting firm Lura. More information about the Prime Ministers Path project, including all of the draft recommendations, can be found at engagewr.ca/prime-ministers-path.
As the seasons change and lives come and go, it can be hard to find any ounce of consistency. But really, it’s the coming and going itself that is the certainty, and even though it might seem turbulent at times there is comfort to be found in endless things: family, friends, hobbies, cloudless skies, a favourite meal, and music. Sharing music tonight to help take you through whatever might be happening, good or bad, or just to be a temporary soundtrack. Either way, enjoy 🙂
