PODCAST: The Daily Review for Fri. July 10th, 2026

Sifting through the chaos and searching through Ottawa’s hardest-hit areas following last week’s flooding, CFRA’s Andrew Pinsent was able to contact Ottawa’s Emergency Management Coordinator. He joins us in Hour 4 with his findings. Plus, if you’re looking for a helpful distraction from this week’s frenzy, and you want to avoid the Bluesfest crowds, perhaps a trip to the local cinema might hit the spot this weekend. If that sounds like you, Matt Demers has got you covered with his Weekly Movie Picks!

Hour 4 of Ottawa Now for Fri. July 10th, 2026

Wednesday’s mass flooding ruined a lot of Canada Day plans, including the evening fireworks that Mother Nature typically disrupts every July 1st. So a lot of Downtown residents were stunned to hear the bang and crackle of fireworks on a Thursday night – especially given the fact that most weren’t notified that any would be going off. As it turns out, Bluesfest organizers picked them up from the feds, and ended up using them to close out Day 1 of this year’s festival. The question still remains: Who knew what, who didn’t, and why the breakdown in communication? Kristy Cameron sifts through the CFRA textboard and tackles today’s Question of the Day. Meantime, a sea of residents in Canada’s Capital are still picking up the pieces following the historic Canada Day floods. Hundreds remain on the phone with insurers, and are still waiting for answers from both the city and the province. Ontario Housing Minister Rob Flack assures the people of Ottawa that the Disaster Recovery Assistance for Ontarians – a program that can help you recover costs after a natural disaster – is on its way. Furthermore, he insists that the Ford government hasn’t forgotten about Ottawa, and they won’t leave residents waiting in the dark. However, that reassurance isn’t calming enough for Crystal Beach resident Jennifer Johnston, who currently doesn’t have insurance. She joins the show in Hour 3.
