Hour 4 of Ottawa Now for Fri. July 17th, 2026

After weeks of waiting and hoping, Ottawa residents finally heard from the Ford government today as to which areas were eligible for provincial relief from the Canada Day floods. But for many who live in the hardest-hit sections, a foul smell was in the air after they read the press release. The conversation starts with Nepean MPP Tyler Watt. Then, we hear from an emotional Catherine in Bells Corners, who fears that she might have to sell her house and declare bankruptcy. At the moment, she is ineligible for DRAO coverage. And finally, we check in with Bay Ward councillor Theresa Kavanagh and College Ward councillor Laine Johnson.

Hour 3 of Ottawa Now for Fri. July 17th, 2026

A nearly $30 million RTO transit plan was put forth to Ottawa City Council during Wednesday’s marathon meeting. And, in the end, it received the green light. Under this directive, general bus service will be beefed up, while express buses will help DND employees return to campus in an effective manner. But are councillors buying what OC Transpo is selling once September hits? Orleans-South Navan councillor Catherine Kitts joins Kristy Cameron in Hour 2. Plus, Ella Langley and Sheryl Crow are putting on their cowgirl hats tonight, as the final Friday of Bluesfest commences. Meanwhile, a rock duo is adding a different flair of their own. CFRA’s Chris Holski has more on that.
