The potential addition of another fast food drive-thru in Nepean is generating opposition from a local city councillor. The municipality has received an application to redevelop a gas station along Merivale Road, and it doesn’t need Council’s approval because it meets zoning requirements. However, College Ward councillor Laine Johnson argues that the drive-thru will bring more traffic, resulting in a lineup of idling vehicles. She is also concerned about noise pollution and pedestrian safety. Where do you stand on this matter? Kristy Cameron sifts through the CFRA textboard and tackles today’s Question of the Day. Meantime, Stats Canada says it plans to cut hundreds of positions over the next two years, including 100 immediate cuts this week. This will affect approximately 850 positions and 12 percent of its executive team. Joining us with his reaction is PIPSC President Sean O'Reilly. Plus, a celebration of life will be held at the Canadian Tire Centre next Tuesday for accessibility advocate Tysen Lefebvre. Details are on the way in Hour 3.
