Ottawa’s Mayor says the municipality has reached a ‘big milestone’ in uploading Ottawa’s LRT system. On Tuesday, Mark Sutcliffe signed an agreement with the Minister of Transportation, saying he ‘recommitted’ to the upload of the O-Train and Highway 174 to the province. And that deal re-affirms what Premier Ford had already committed to last year. It might seem like a long road ahead, but it could solve a lot of Ottawa’s problems if this transaction goes through. Do Ottawa’s transit critics see it that way? We dig deeper in Hour 2 with Laura Shantz, a board member with Ottawa Transit Riders. Meantime, water levels on the Ottawa River are rising again, according to the Ottawa River Regulation Planning Board. We check in with Gleb Panchishen, who lives on the western side of Constance Bay. He just moved there last August, and this is his first-ever flood watch.
