Welcome back to another awesome episode of Kitchener Famous. If you're from the area and you were paying attention to our last federal election, you would know how close our local elected were and therefore know the importance and value of voting is. Mike was our local elected Green Party MP. He continues to be a pioneer for many local initiatives and has helped pass some very important bills. Most importantly, he is a compassionate and humane person with a good heart. It's not often that we discuss politics on the show, but it is incredibly important and speaks to how it shapes and dictates our identity as Canadians. Mike discusses all things politics and initiatives today and educates Jesse and Jay... there's even a funny story at the end on how Jesse and Mike met.
