New survey results suggest that Canadians may have reached a tipping point…when it comes to tipping. Commissioned by H&R Block Canada, the data finds that 67 percent of surveyed Canadians believe it's time to abolish tipping altogether. Furthermore, 93 percent of Canadians feel annoyed when a payment machine prompts a tip in situations where gratuities were never expected, such as fast-food restaurants or even self-serve kiosks. We dig deeper in Hour 4 with Wayne Smith, the Director of the Institute for Hospitality and Tourism Research at Toronto Metropolitan University. Then, Jackie Perez and Stefan Keyes drop by for a preview of tonight’s CTV Ottawa supper-hour newscast. And if news breaks in real time, you’ll hear it live on CFRA’s Ottawa Now.
