OC Transpo is speaking this afternoon, delivering a much-needed update on the status of our city’s public transit system. To put it mildly, it’s been a rough week, as mechanical problems on Line 1 have led to mini trains and crowded platforms. As of right now, it appears we don’t have any brand-new information to report, nor a timeline as to when these problems could be fixed. All we are getting is apologizes, as well as repeated assurances that the Eastern extension will be unaffected by all this madness. In the meantime, should customers be eligible for refunds? You heard from Ottawa Transit Riders board member Laura Shantz in Hour 2. This hour, Kristy Cameron poses that question to Kitchissippi councillor Jeff Leiper and River Ward councillor Riley Brockington. But first, it’s time to tackle today’s Question of the Day. Would you pay extra in property taxes for snow to be cleared from the foot of your laneway? Text into the show and let us know!
