Hour 3 of Ottawa Now for Wed. April 23rd, 2025

View descriptionShare

From everyday residents and longtime customers, to the Mayor of Ottawa and famous Prime Ministers, the doors of John’s Diner have welcomed people for more than 50 years. However, after Friday’s dinners have been served, the lights will be turned off one last time. There is no trouble in paradise for the Hatoum family. They just want to enjoy these precious moments of paradise while they are still here. Tony Hatoum, John’s son, works at the diner himself. He joins Kristy Cameron in Hour 3. Sticking with the subject of Downtown businesses, the City of Ottawa is trying to make the city’s busiest sector more livable and desirable. Pedestrian spaces have been added in recent months. A satellite police station has moved into the Rideau Centre as well. However, more and more businesses are either moving out of the Downtown Core or calling it quits altogether. As we try to right the ship, are we headed in the right direction? We open the debate floor and tackle today’s Question of the Day. Plus, CFRA’s Andrew Pinsent delivers the latest developments on the campaign trail, as we creep closer and closer to Election Day.
