  • RCMP investigates Fillmore and other more important things
    Jun 29 2026

    Last week was a big one down at city hall with two bombshell Auditor General audits as well as a cricket debate, and parking fare increase. All of that is in the first half of the show.

    In the back half of the show host Matt Stickland breaks down the story Fillmore is trying to tell about how being invesitaged by the RCMP is all a big misunderstanding.

    In an administrative note, there will be no paper next week and we are blaming Canada Day for this.
