Ottawa At Work with Leslie Roberts for Tuesday July 6th, 2021

CTV’s Jackie Perez is a jack-of-all-trades today. She is looking at the weather forecast. Then, she’s hosting the late-night newscast at 11:30! But right now, she’s got the latest updates from the CTV Ottawa newsroom! Plus, we revisit our conversation with Rideau-Jock councillor David Brown, who doesn’t have to worry about the late-October ballot anymore. That’s because nobody ran against him, and he’s been acclaimed for a second term at City Hall.

Hour 4 of Ottawa Now for Mon. August 24th, 2026

Last week, U.S. President Trump was ready to pull the trigger on a series of 50% tariffs against Canada. Fast-forward to Wednesday, and it appeared that a deal to avoid said tariffs was in the works. But as the clock struck Midnight on Friday, everything fell apart. We don’t know the specifics of the deal, and we don’t know the exact warning signs that spooked Canada, but the bottom line is that we no longer have a deal and the latest wave of Trump tariffs are now in play. And over the coming weeks, Canada will strike back. Is a ‘fight fire with fire’ warpath the right move for Prime Minister Carney to pursue? Guest host Chris Holski sifts through the CFRA textboard and tackles today’s Question of the Day. Then, we turn things over to our Political Heat Panel, who have plenty of things to say about the past 72 hours.

Hour 3 of Ottawa Now for Mon. August 24th, 2026

Just before the weekend began, two city councillors were slated to run in October’s election without a single opponent standing in their way. In such an instance, once the deadline passes, that lucky individual gets a free pass to City Hall for the next 4 years. River Ward’s Riley Brockington got one. And now, as he completes his first term of City Council, Rideau-Jock councillor David Brown also gets one. He outlines his priorities for his second go-around in Hour 2. Sticking with municipal politics, Incumbent Mayor Mark Sutcliffe has released a plan for Rural Ottawa, while his main competitor Jeff Leiper is pushing back on the upcoming return-to-office mandates at City Hall. CFRA’s Andrew Pinsent has the latest on that. Plus, just days after trade negotiations with the United States fell apart, Prime Minister Carney is reiterating that the U.S. deal on the table would not have benefited Canadians. Retaliatory tariffs are on the horizon after U.S. President Trump went ahead with a series of 50% tariffs against Canada. Is that the best play that Canada can make right now? John Boscariol, a Partner with the International Trade and Investment Law Group, admits they will cause a degree of harm for Canadians. At the same time, he strongly believes that September's pending punch-back will send a message to Canada’s bigger brother.
