Significant changes are coming to car insurance policies all across Ontario. Effective July 1st, these changes involve benefits that were previously mandatory, but are now becoming optional. However, some experts fear that these changes could prove costly in the long run, especially if you get into a car accident. Do you support these alterations? Kristy Cameron sifts through the CFRA textboard and tackles today’s Question of the Day. Shifting gears to Queen’s Park, Ontario MPP’s will be going on an extra-long Summer Break. Following a Winter Break that lasted 14 weeks, they were back in their seats for 30 days. And now, they won’t be back until after the Municipal Elections have been held in late-October. We gather the latest developments from CTV’s Siobhan Morris. Then, we check in with interim Liberal leader John Fraser.

Hour 3 of Ottawa Now for Tues. June 2nd, 2026

New camera technology deployed in Brampton has aided Peel Police in over 200 investigations within the past year. The municipality has installed 360-degree high-resolution cameras, along with automated license plate recognition technology, at 50 intersections. The price tag comes in at $2 million. The cameras come from Genetec Incorporated – a Canadian security technology company – and they can read license plates with a nearly full field of vision. Could Ottawa benefit from this kind of technology, or is this just increased surveillance? We pose that question to CTV public safety analyst Chris Lewis, who is also a former OPP Commissioner. Meantime, do you ever feel guilty about resting? For instance, you’re reading a book, but you can’t stop thinking about your to-do list. And then, a level of uneasiness starts to creep in. Some call it ‘productivity guilt’. But where do we draw the line? Psychotherapist Benslyne Avril pays us a visit on this Self-Help Tuesday.
