Hour 4 of Ottawa Now for Mon. October 5th, 2026

Within the past 30 minutes, Incumbent Mayor Mark Sutcliffe paid a visit to the Hal Anthony studios to tackle a wide range of issues in Canada’s Capital. He offered a series of solutions. In past weeks, on this very program, so have the other frontrunner candidates for Ottawa’s top job. As the Advanced Polling stations open, who has your vote? Kristy Cameron sifts through the CFRA textboard and tackles today’s Question of the Day. Plus, a provincial election in Quebec could have major implications for Canada’s future. We dig deeper in Hour 3 with our Political Heat Panel.

Hour 3 of Ottawa Now for Mon. October 5th, 2026

Florida is looking at ditching property taxes – and getting Canadians to pony up for the bill. Republican Governor Ron DeSantis has railed against property taxes, so he’s pushing Amendment 3. If it gets the green light, homeowners would see a dramatic reduction in property taxes. Any Floridian with a primary residence valued at $250,000 USD or less would pay nothing. Those who own properties worth more than that would pay much less. And in a move that would cost the Florida government more money, they plan to make up for it by tapping into Canadian Snowbirds and taxing them more. We examine the bigger picture with Stephen Fine, the President of Snowbird Advisor. Shifting gears back to Ottawa’s municipal election campaign, Incumbent Mayor Mark Sutcliffe has unveiled new platforms on interprovincial free trade in the Ottawa-Gatineau Region, while also advocating for more direct flights to Ottawa. He joins Kristy Cameron in Hour 2 to tackle a wide range of issues that are currently facing Canada’s Capital. Plus, as we prepare for a Saturday Halloween, could turnips serve as the Jack-O-Lanterns of the future? CFRA’s Chris Holski has more on that.
