Hour 3 of Ottawa Now for Thurs. November 21st, 2024

Ahead of the Christmas shopping season, and a potential economic shift in the United States, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says his Liberal government plans to temporarily lift the federal sales tax off a slew of items. Cheques will be sent to millions of Canadian households this Spring. It’s a nice gesture on the surface, but will it do anything? Retail analyst Bruce Winder joins guest host Andrew Pinsent in Hour 2. Meantime, do you remember the infamous Rideau Street McDonald’s? Don’t call it a comeback, but the CEO of McDonald’s Canada was asked about a theoretical return of the Downtown symbol during the Mayor’s Breakfast today. And…well…Michele Boudria didn’t say ‘never’.

Hour 2 of Ottawa Now for Thurs. November 21st, 2024

Andrew Pinsent is filling in for Kristy Cameron this afternoon. As you might have heard in previous weeks, Ottawa City Council is debating the idea of a brand-new ‘bubble bylaw’, which would restrict protests near places of worship. Vaughn, another Ontario town, has already done it. And now, so has Brampton. We go 1-on-1 with Brampton Mayor Patrick Brown in Hour 1. Meantime, OPP officials have released new data on Project Atlas, a police investigation that is pulling the curtain on the dark side of today’s digital investments. We dig deeper with Detective-Constable John Armit of the OPP’s Anti-Fraud Branch.
