Hour 4 of Ottawa Now for Thurs. October 22nd, 2026

Road safety has become a big problem this year, especially over the past few weeks. We have seen a bunch of fatal accidents so far in October. And whether you’re a driver or a pedestrian, nobody feels safe right now. What is going on? How do we fix this glaring trend? Kristy Cameron sifts through the CFRA textboard and tackles today’s Question of the Day. Meantime, a number of government websites were taken down on Wednesday in response to security risks. We dig deeper in Hour 3 with Claudiu Popa, a certified security and privacy expert. Plus, the Ottawa Senators welcomed their old captain back to the Canadian Tire Centre…and so did the fans. As CFRA’s Chris Holski explains, if your name wasn’t Brady Tkachuk, Wednesday night was a great night.

Hour 3 of Ottawa Now for Thurs. October 22nd, 2026

Canada’s largest public service union will hold a strike vote for 120,000 federal workers. The Public Service Alliance of Canada announced that it will hold strike votes for its members in the Program and Administrative Services, Technical Services and Education, and Library Science bargaining groups. It’s in response to the Treasury Board of Canada’s ‘insulting wage proposal, push for concessions, and refusal to address critical workplace issues’, per the union. PSAC National President Sharon DeSousa joins Kristy Cameron in Hour 2. Plus, we tackle road safety and the homestretch of the campaign trail with our Reality Check Panel.

Hour 2 of Ottawa Now for Thurs. October 22nd, 2026

There were two more fatal crashes on Ottawa’s roads last night. Over the past week, 4 people have lost their lives, bringing the number of traffic-related fatalities this year to 32. In 2025, that tragic total was 23. It’s gotten to the point where Ottawa Police has issued a public appeal – encouraging commuters in all situations to be safe and to avoid distractions. Kristy Cameron chats with Sgt. Josh Callaghan, who works with the Ottawa Police Service’s Road Safety Unit. Meantime, it’s the final week of the municipal election campaign, as mayoral candidates make their final pitches to voters. Today, incumbent mayoral candidate Mark Sutcliffe unveiled a 30-day action plan – a gameplan that he would implement in his first 30 days (if re-elected). CFRA’s Andrew Pinsent has more on that. But first, we bring you up to speed on today’s top headlines.
