For centuries, members of the B’doul Bedouin tribe lived in the caves around the ancient city of Petra, Jordan. Then, in the 1980s, the government forced the tribe to move in the name of preserving the geological site for tourists. But if the residents are forced to leave, and if their heritage has been permanently changed, then what exactly is being preserved? SHOW NOTES: Meet The Man Living in The Lost City Carved in Stone Jordan: Petra's tourism authority cracks down on Bedouin cave dwellers The tribes paying the brutal price of conservation “There is no future for Umm Sayhoun” Jordan’s Young Bedouins Are Documenting Their Traditions on TikTok Check out Sami's company Jordan Inspiration Tours Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices…

Q
Queen City Improvement Bureau
Don't you love it when council has a perfectly benign motion on their agenda that should pass quickly and be a good news story but somehow they find a way to make it gross and awful? And by "don't you love it?" I mean, "don't you hate it?" In this case, it's Clr Victoria Flores' food security motion which Clrs Bezo, Tsiklis & Rashovich brought so much of their conservative brand of yuck to. Aidan hadn't listened to any of this council meeting so I collected a bunch of representative audio clips and we got to play a new game I like to call "Can Council Make Aidan's Head Explode?" Music by Guidewire (aka Ryan Hill). Originally broadcast on 91.3FM CJTR, AccessNow community radio in Regina.…
So… we sent our intern and CJTR’s erstwhile Prairie Naturalist, Sharrod Claerge, out to get us coffee like… years ago… (he insists his name is actually "Jared Clarke" and that he now has a “real job” but we don't believe him because that's exactly the kind of thing Sharrod would say, the jokester). Sharrod’s back - coffee-less (sigh) - to talk about "Salthaven West" and "wildlife rescue" and "conservation" and "nature" and… I don't know, man. I just wanted a coffee. The Typical 18-Year Old Girl also drops into the subbasement for a conversation about the week at Executive Committee and housing platforms in advance of the April 28 federal election. It's a real cavalcade of QCIB secondary characters this week. Music by Ryan Hill (aka Guidewire). Originally broadcast on 91.3FM CJTR, AccessNow community radio.…

Jon & Kelly from the Queen City Urbanist Bookclub are back to chat about the four-day 2025 city budget process. It was… an adventure! Based off some councillors' performance, you should probably look up "Dunning Kruger Effect". It's a phrase that may come up a lot. Music by Ryan Hill (aka Guidewire). Originally broadcast on 91.3FM CJTR, AccessNow community radio.…
Q
Queen City Improvement Bureau
Ward 8 councillor Shanon Zachidniak visits the subbasement to talk about what it's like being the lone two-termer on council, the upcoming week of budget discussions, the Energy & Sustainability Framework, recycling, composting, housing and much more.

John Kennedy and Chris Matchett visit the subbasement to promote the Not A Birthday Fundraiser on March 13 at the Exchange — which the QCIB will be hosting, as it happens. Plus, we discuss council voting down rental housing and their repeated failure to understand how referral motions work. Chris performs a couple songs. Theme music by Ryan Hill (aka Guidewire).

Queen City Improvement Bureau
In the first half, the tale of two municipal corporations. There is CSIR who is to die! And there is EDR who you will listen to and wish you were dead! In the second half, we have a surprise guest. AND IF YOU DO NOT WANT THE SURPRISE GUEST'S IDENTITY SPOILED READ NO FURTHER! okay… the surprise guest is new councillor Mark Burton from ward 4. Yes! The "compact urban squalor" guy. We talk to him about the 2025 budget proposal. Then we give him a chance to respond to our two weeks worth of dunking on him. Music by Ryan Hill (aka Guidewire). Originally broadcast on 91.3FM CJTR.…
Q
Queen City Improvement Bureau
Some great things passed at city council's first meeting of 2025 including a motion to consider giving surface parking lots their own property tax class, a pilot to explore giving high school students free transit, more. Also, Aidan hates numbers. Music by Guidewire (aka Ryan Hill). Originally broadcast on 91.3FM CJTR, Regina community radio.…

Our new city council met for their first Executive Committee meeting of 2025 and we take a look at how they distinguished themselves. Spoilers: Sub-awesome. On the agenda, EX25-2 Regina Housing Needs Assessment, EX25-3 2025 Housing Incentives Policy Pilots & Revisions, EX25-4 Office to Residential Incentive Pilot and EX25-6 Speakers' Corner Drainage Renewal Project. Music by Ryan Hill (aka Guidewire). Originally broadcast on 91.3FM CJTR.…
Q
Queen City Improvement Bureau
University of Regina geography professor Vanessa Mathews visits the subbasement to talk about two items coming to council: a motion to set a new property tax classification for nuisance and underused properties (like surface parking lots, for instance), and a motion to start a pilot program for free transit for high school kids. We also talk about the concept plan for the Scarth St pedestrian mall renovation. (Spoilers: they're keeping it a pedestrian mall). No Aidan this week as he is away negotiating an MOU for a Food & Yard Waste Joint Use Agreement with Regina's crows and ravens. Music by Ryan Hill (aka Guidewire). Originally broadcast on 91.3FM CJTR…
Q
Queen City Improvement Bureau
We got the Queen City's new mayor, Chad Bachynski, on the phone for 15 min at the crack of dawn so we could pin him down with questions about federal infrastructure funding, the Housing Accelerator Fund, residential upzoning and some ignorant, mildly sweary stuff that federal opposition leader, Pierre Poilievre, said about cities. Seriously, what’s Poilievre’s damage? Plus, We're Number Five! And, how did council's first real meeting go… really? Music by Guidewire (aka Ryan Hill). Originally broadcast on 91.3FM CJTR.…
Q
Queen City Improvement Bureau
Regina's new council has their first executive committee meeting and it starts with a tax-hike blooding to initiate in the newbs. Take that, Advance Regina! Plus, Pierre Poilievre declares war on all of Canada's cities. What's that guy's damage, anyway? Music by Guidewire (aka Ryan Hill). Originally broadcast on 91.3FM CJTR.…
It's our post-election WTF? episode. New councillors. Gone councillors. Advance Regina did stuff. Mayor rhymes with hair. You just know we're going to be riding that gag for four years. Music by Guidewire (aka Ryan Hill). Originally broadcast on 91.3FM CJTR.
