Hour 3 of Ottawa Now for Wed. September 16th, 2026

View descriptionShare
 

In Hour 3, Kristy Cameron sifts through the CFRA textboard and tackles today’s Question of the Day. We react to your feedback about the European Union's proposal to Canada, as well as the recent string of campaign promises by Ottawa's mayoral candidates. One of them is calling for an infrastructure levy if he’s elected into power this Fall. Jeff Leiper argues that Ottawa’s infrastructure is long in the tooth, and says a 1 percent levy could be just what the doctor ordered. At the same time, he is pledging to keep property taxes ‘affordable and predictable’, though his plan doesn’t include a specific target. He drops by for a visit to explain further.
