Rideau-Jock councillor David Brown finds it frustrating that buses from Russell, Carleton Place, and Smiths Falls pass right through Rural Ottawa without ever making a stop. He calls that a missed opportunity, and he is calling on City Hall to change that. Is it a fair point, or is it unrealistic given the current transit situation? Kristy Cameron sifts through the CFRA textboard and tackles today’s Question of the Day. Later in Hour 3, we shift gears to a CTV News exclusive, which highlights the dangers of Lithium-Ion batteries in a devastating way. CTV’s Katie Griffin pays us a visit and delivers the details. Then, we check in with Nick DeFazio from Ottawa Fire Services.
