In early January, Consumption and Treatment Services (CTS) in Kitchener announced through Instagram that 18 out of 30 – or 60% — of fentanyl samples tested also contained the animal sedative, xylazine.
Leigh Wardlaw of CTS talked to CKMS news about xylazine, why it is added to the supply, the health impacts, and the wider problem of adulterating drugs.
Leigh also explains the importance and impact of testing, and how to access the service. Although, that access may be limited as CTS’s current funding ends at the end of March, leaving the service with an uncertain future.

The genius sunburst finish disappears
In the final glow
The seed is sown the flowers grow
Nirvana is so very far away
A million miles of broken glass
A million faces from behind
Straight between the eyes

In Waterloo’s final open city council session of 2023, site-specific by-law and zoning changes were approved to allow a new residence at the University of Waterloo. The 510 bed, twelve-story building will be constructed on the northern section of the parking lot that sits between University Ave, Seagram Drive, and the Spur Line Trail.
First announced by the university in September of 2023, the new residence is now a collaboration with architect Diamond and Schmitt and will mainly house first year students. The University of Waterloo guarantees housing for all first year students, however, most upper-year students must compete for housing off-campus.
This show features audio from the December 11th meeting where staff presented the project, the architect spoke alongside representatives from the University of Waterloo and consultant GSP group, and delegates proposed even more car parking lots being transformed into human living spaces. Councilors voted unanimously for the motion.

I’d normally do a #throwbackthursday but tonight is very busy for me, maybe next week. Until next time!
After a successful 2023, DJ Hickdaddy is proud to present the top new Hip-Hop, Rap, and R&B songs from Mixtape Monopoly in 2023.
The shows motto for new music is “New music with an old-school vibe”. This is heavily reflected in the countdown. Which is a result of all the great new music that came out in 2023. Plus, the vibe of the individual tracks, and mix of artists.
The podcast is reflective of what aired on Dec 30 2023.
The now-defunct UK music magazine Sounds published its list of the Top 100 singles of the year in late December 1978. I recently came across this list (shown below) and picked out several that were unfamiliar to me, or that I hadn’t thought about for a long time, and cobbled them into this week’s offering. Hope you enjoy!
Walking down the street, kicking cans Looking at the billboard – also-ran Summing up the people, checking out the race Doing what I’m doing, feeling out of place
