Peterborough Politics Podcast - Episode 6 - Art Attack

Author: Arthur Newspaper March 30, 2023 Duration: 1:14:58

Art is quite literally under attack in Peterborough as the community was not successful in appealing to City Council to reconsider funding The Theatre on King and the Artisans Centre. We talked about it at length. There was a really sad story concerning a 3-year-old girl who was killed in her own driveway by a reckless vehicle. Our condolences go out to the family. You can donate to the GoFundMe Page, here: https://www.gofundme.com/f/tragic-loss-in-peterborough Other things we talked about were Jeff Leal being on vacation and how their may be a double standard that is not afforded to women in politics. Saying Goodbye to Sandra Clancy. Michelle Ferreri being a capital "C" Conservative. Lastly, we quickly touched on Provincial funding for Derecho recovery and we reminisced about our respective Derecho experiences.
