Everyone knows that the Victoria Day Weekend is the unofficial start to Summer, but don't tell that to the parts of Alberta that are getting plastered with snow today. But if you've lived in Canada's Capital long enough, you know that the real highlight of this 3-day vacation is the batch of blossoming tulips. Andrew Pinsent checks in with Jo Hall, the Executive Director of the Canadian Tulip Festival, on CFRA Weekends. The 74th edition kicked off last week, and it runs right through Monday.

The Ottawa Mission is relentlessly campaigning to save supervised consumption sites all across Ontario, encouraging its petitioners to contact the Ford government and urge the province to change course. The Ottawa-based closures began last year when the Somerset West Community Health Centre was shuttered, with the province citing that it was too close to a daycare. Not long after that, the supervised consumption site on Clarence Street was shut down after the province did not endorse the renewal of an exemption to keep the lights on. And this past March, Ottawa Inner City Health and Sandy Hill Community Health Centre were told that their funding for consumption and treatment services would be withdrawn by mid-June. And while the province's critics believe in the effectiveness of Ontario's HART hubs, the elimination of these consumption sites will still cause plenty of long-term damage. CFRA’s Andrew Pinsent checks in with Michelle Groulx, a Chief Advocate with the Ottawa Coalition of Business Improvement Areas.
