Hour 4 of Ottawa Now for Fri. April 24th, 2026

Potholes are back, folks. In some areas, they are back in droves. In some areas, according to the OPP, they are causing serious damage to vehicles. What has your pothole experience been like this season? Guest host Chris Holski sifts through the CFRA textboard and tackles today’s Question of the Day. Shifting gears to Queen’s Park, the Ford government has introduced its Budget Bill, which includes measures to cap resale ticket prices. In other words, tickets can’t be resold for more than the original price. But how much will it help today’s consumers? Music expert and publicist Eric Alper pays us a visit in Hour 3. Plus, we check in with Pascal Mathieu, the Vice-President of Quebec’s Red Cross, as some Gatineau homes remain underwater due to flooding.

Hour 3 of Ottawa Now for Fri. April 24th, 2026

Nearly one year ago, Sens captain Brady Tkachuk was holding back tears after the boys failed to force a Game 7 against Toronto. Tomorrow, for a second straight year, Sens Army will be staring down the barrel of a potential 4-game sweep, as the Carolina Hurricanes secured a 3-0 series stranglehold last night. The CTC boo-birds were out in full force after Ottawa closed out the middle frame with a lackluster powerplay. And if the Senators have any hope of reverse-sweeping their way out of trouble, they will have to make it happen without All-Star rearguard Jake Sanderson, who has been ruled out of Game 4 with concussion-like symptoms. CFRA alumni and Ottawa Citizen sportswriter Callum Fraser pays us a visit in Hour 2. Meantime, the sold-out Game 3 crowd might still be suffering the side-effects of last night’s shenanigans, but the Senators WAG’s are winning the day with their slick playoff jackets. CFRA’s Emma Kelly has more on that.
