PODCAST: The Daily Review for Thurs. February 19th, 2026

Former Prince Andrew has been arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office. Police officers arrived at his home early Thursday morning to search his property and take him into custody. And while he hasn’t been officially charged, new information about Andrew has come to light from the Epstein Files, which are separate from the sexual abuse accusations he has previously faced. Kristy Cameron digs deeper with Coryne Hall, a historian and consultant who specializes in Royal history. Shifting gears to the world of tourism, there were approximately 18,000 fewer vehicle trips across the Canada-U.S. border last month. This is from Eastern Ontario to New York State, by the way. And it also marks the 12th straight month where we have seen a decline in cross-border trips. Travel expert Lorraine Simpson joins the show in Hour 2. Plus, we have a live reaction to the Gold Medal winning tally in Women’s Hockey. And depending on which side you’re rooting for, you might want to cover your ears, as CFRA’s Chris Holski delivers the final call.

Hour 2 of Ottawa Now for Thurs. February 19th, 2026

The City of Ottawa is planning to pedestrianize streets in the ByWard Market, revitalize the historic ByWard Building, and eventually convert a parking garage into a ‘mixed-use destination’. It’s all part of a long-term makeover that will cost millions of dollars. Kristy Cameron chats with Victoria Williston, the new Executive Director and Communications Manager for the ByWard Market District Authority. Later in today's program, we also check in with Deek Labelle, who is the Manager and Co-Owner of The Laff. Meantime, it’s been over a year since Canadians started swearing off American products, a nationwide attempt to take a stand against the Trump tariffs. The ‘Buy Canadian’ movement was a huge part of 2025, and it’s still holding up today. However, such declarations have been less vocal in 2026. But one Ontario man is working hard to keep the Canadian patriotism going, highlighting Canadian brands for 140 consecutive days. Chris Agro pays us a visit in Hour 1. Plus, we check in with CTV's Jackie Perez, as the Canadian Women's Hockey Team goes for Gold in Milan.
