PODCAST: The Daily Review for Tues. September 29th, 2026

An American ban on $1 billion worth of Canadian imports has gone into effect. It covers several Canadian imports – ranging from alcohol, to dairy, and motorcycles. Talks between Canada and the United States remain on thin ice, and this move by U.S. President Trump is another attempt to ramp up America’s trade war. In fact, Trump thinks Canada is going to cave – and apologize – before shaking hands on a new deal with the Americans. He is confident that will happen in the coming weeks. Trump’s bravado comes on the same day that Stelco announced hundreds of layoffs – indefinitely shutting down part of its Hamilton operations and impacting up to 500 workers. Kristy Cameron checks in with Peter MacKay, Canada’s Foreign Affairs Minister, in Hour 2. Meantime, the Ontario government and the Carney Liberals have agreed to extend the national affordable child-care program for another 4 years. However, the extension doesn’t come with any promises of lowering fees to an average of $10 per day, which is the program’s signature goal. We dig deeper with Andrea Hannen, the Executive Director of the Association of Day Care Operators of Ontario.

Hour 2 of Ottawa Now for Tues. September 29th, 2026

Ottawa's Police Board met on Monday night – the last scheduled meeting until October’s municipal election. CFRA’s Andrew Pinsent offers his key takeaways in Hour 1. Sticking with the Ottawa Police Service, we learned a few months ago that some Ottawa Police officers were using internal databases inappropriately. In an internal video obtained by CTV Ottawa, Police Chief Eric Stubbs called out the behaviour, saying it has been ignored for too long. We check in with Alta Vista councillor Marty Carr, who is also a member of the Ottawa Police Services Board. But first, we bring you up to speed on today’s top headlines.
