Hour 3 of Ottawa Now for Fri. October 23rd, 2026

 

We are entering the final days of the 2026 Municipal Election! City Council candidates are hard at work, making their final elevator pitches tonight and into the weekend. So are Ottawa’s Mayoral candidates. Heading into Monday’s last call, do you have a final decision made up? If not, what’s keeping you hung up? Kristy Cameron sifts through the CFRA textboard and tackles today’s Question of the Day. Meantime, the Head of Canada Post says it is showing ‘early signs’ of a financial recovery, despite falling revenue and bigger losses in the first half of 2026. Should we believe the hype? Ian Lee, a Professor at Carleton University’s Sprott School of Business, joins us in Hour 3 with his two cents. He is also a former Canada Post employee.
