Over 300 parents are backing a petition for a crossing guard and flashers near two West End schools. It follows a series of close calls between students and vehicles – and we’re only 3 weeks into a brand-new school year. We are lighting up an old flame on today’s Question of the Day: How do we fix this problem? Kristy Cameron takes your calls and sifts through the CFRA textboard. Meantime, a neighbourhood in Ottawa’s Southwest End is expressing serious concerns of a different kind, as multiple incidents show teenagers smashing down doors and damaging homes. One of these occasions was caught on camera last week. Knoxdale-Merivale councillor Sean Devine fills us in. Plus, the House of Commons is back in session, and Canada’s Labour Code might be the first big item up for discussion. We dig deeper in Hour 3 with our Political Heat Panel.
