Ottawa’s Mayor has introduced the Public Safety Action Plan, a directive that is aimed at preserving public safety all across Canada’s Capital. It starts with $1 million in brand-new funding for the ByWard Market, which will be used to recruit security guards. Will this strategy be effective enough to deliver promising solutions? Do these guards have the authority to resolve today’s problems? We posed that question to former Ottawa Police Chief Charles Bordeleau. We asked the same question in Hour 2, as Rideau-Vanier councillor Stephanie Plante stopped by for a visit. And now, we are joined alongside Victoria Williston, who is the Manager of Communications for the ByWard Market District Authority. She outlines her two cents on today’s debate. Then, Kristy Cameron turns things over to the mighty CFRA Nation, as we tackle today’s Question of the Day. Plus, doctors in Quebec have showcased their continued displeasure towards a brand-new healthcare law. And this week, it appears we have reached a breaking point in that province. CFRA’s Andrew Pinsent explains further in Hour 3.
