SUMMARY:Composting for Gardeners - Composting Piles\, Bins and Drums (Virtual)
DESCRIPTION:The previous workshop provided information about the composting process. This workshop is more hands on and looks at various methods for completing both hot and cold composting. Hot composting is the traditional method using one or more bins. This is a great system that makes faster compost\, but it is impractical for smaller gardens. Various plastic bins and drums are more suitable there. We’ll have a look at various commercial and DIY systems. \nAt the end of this course you will be able to select the right composting system that meets your requirements and you will know how to start the process\, care for it\, and what to do with the finished compost. \nIf you are going to take this course it is a good idea to also take Introduction to Composting for Gardeners. \nFee: $10 (plus HST) per person.

SUMMARY:Truscott Lecture in Justice 2025 - Reimagining Canada's Prisons
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a compelling talk exploring the Canadian correctional system\, beginning with Howard Saper’s personal reflection on the wrongful conviction of Steven Truscott. This discussion will examine the realities of incarceration\, the impact of being “tough on crime\,” and pressing issues such as the overrepresentation of Indigenous people in prisons. Using recent cases—including Paul Bernardo’s prison transfer and the government’s response to Charter violations in segregation practices—the talk will highlight systemic challenges and potential reforms for a more humane and effective correctional system. \nThe lecture series is part of the Truscott Initiative launched at U of G in 2009 to commemorate the struggles of Guelph resident Steven Truscott and his family. \nTruscott is known across Canada for his decades-long battle to prove his innocence after the 1959 murder of his schoolmate Lynne Harper. He was wrongly convicted of the crime at age 14 and spent years in prison before his release in 1969. He was acquitted by the Ontario Court of Appeal in 2007. \nThe Truscott Initiative aims to improve understanding of the nation’s complex criminal justice system and to highlight how criminal justice intersects with other policy areas and broader conceptions of justice. \nRegistration is not required for this event.
