Hour 2 of Ottawa Now for Thurs. June 25th, 2026

View descriptionShare
 

A 2-year-old Border Collie is protecting Toronto's official World Cup training field at Centennial Park from an influx of Canada Geese. Her name is Sally, and she works hand-in-hand with her handler Gareth Williams. He uses a specialized and humane herding technique to scare off the geese and keep the pitch clean. The City of Toronto has contracted Border Control Bird Dogs for $18,000 to see the job through. Gareth joins Kristy Cameron in Hour 2. Meantime, Prime Minister Mark Carney says there will be an announcement tomorrow about the future of 24 Sussex Drive. Will it be anything substantial, or is it just the initial hiring announcement of a group that will be tasked with tackling this ancient issue? We pick the brain of Heritage Ottawa President Katherine Spencer-Ross. Plus, the size of Canada’s federal public service has dropped by 12,600 jobs. What will this mean for Ottawa’s economy? We dig deeper with our Reality Check Panel.
