PODCAST: The Daily Review for Fri. November 13th, 2026

Due to ‘extraordinary circumstances’ and ‘for reasons of safety’, the USA’s Federal Aviation Administration has issued a nationwide ground-stop. They are citing communications issues affecting air traffic control centers as the catalyst for these drastic measures. This affects every single U.S. airport and every single flight that is coming in and out of America right now. Now, for curious Sens fans out there, we did receive word that the team has landed safely in Pittsburgh ahead of tomorrow's game against the Penguins. We gather instant reaction on the late-afternoon madness from aviation expert John Gradek. Then, we preview tonight’s CTV Ottawa supper-hour newscast with Jackie Perez and Stefan Keyes. And if news breaks in real time, you’ll hear it live on CFRA’s Ottawa Now.

Hour 4 of Ottawa Now for Fri. November 13th, 2026

We’ve all worked with that person before – the colleague who updates the group chat every single time they erase a task off their to-do list. Or, better yet, the employee who posts a daily highlight reel of their social media productivity. Today, we have a name for it. It’s called ‘loud working’. In Hour 3, we get the 4-1-1 with Cal Youngwirth, the Director of Permanent Placement Services at employment agency Robert Half. But first, Kristy Cameron opens the CFRA textboard and dissects today’s Question of the Day. How badly did the great Microsoft outage of 2026 impact your Thursday grind?
