The Graham Crawford Show - episode 2 - The Civic Panel
The first edition of The Graham Crawford Show is full of smart, progressive talk with two of our regular panelists, Maureen Wilson and Peter Graefe. We talk in-depth about 3 in-the-news topics: The West Harbour Pier 7&8 Urban Design Study. Councillor Matthew Green’s encounter with a member of the Hamilton Police Service. The Bay Street Bike Lane and what it reveals about the working culture at City Hall. I can say I gained new insights from our guests. I hope you will too. We’re providing links to some of the things we reference in our discussion so you can learn more about the topics. And if you feel inclined to encourage your Councillor to listen to all, or any portion, of the show, we’re also including a link to the City of Hamilton page where you can find your Councillor’s email address. Hope you enjoy the show. Remember, we’ll be posting a new edition of The Graham Crawford Show every week.

No longer being produced: This is the official archive for 77 podcast episodes of The Graham Crawford Show. Hey friends. This is Graham Crawford and I want to tell you about our podcast, The Graham Crawford Show. It’s a weekly show filled with smart, progressive talk. The show will offer a variety of options from regular panelists, subject matter experts, and personal observations - all focused on issues affecting you and the City of Hamilton. We’ll have a regular panel that discusses current civic issues. The panelists are Ryan McGreal of Raise the Hammer, Maureen Wilson of the Useful Knowledge Society, and Peter Graefe, Associate Professor of Political Science at McMaster University. And I’ll have a special guest who’ll be visiting the show each month. His name is Paul Wilson. That’s right, THE Paul Wilson of Hamilton Spectator fame. Paul will drop by and read one of his columns and talk about the backstory. So, if you’ve ever wondered how or why Paul picks the stories he does, you’re going to love listening to Paul. I promise not to pull any punches as I talk with guests and as I share my own observations about all things Hamilton. From affordable housing, to LRT, to the state of Public Engagement, we’ll provide you with information and insights on things that matter to you. Executive Producer of the podcast is Alex Zafer. And the show is Produced by Dave Beatty. All the shows are recorded in downtown Hamilton at QED Media.
