PODCAST: The Daily Review for Thurs. August 13th, 2026

Canada’s Capital, once again, was ravaged by a rainstorm. For the third time since Canada Day, some residents were nervously standing guard as a flood threatened their homes. Intense lightning and wicked winds followed nearly 22 millimetres of rain. As it becomes clear that these events might be taking place more often, how should we be handling these situations, both in the split-second aftermath and in the long-term? Bay Ward councillor Theresa Kavanagh joins Kristy Cameron in Hour 3. Then, we tackle today's Question of the Day. And in this week’s gardening fireside chat with gardening expert Carson Arthur, we talk about tent caterpillars, Fall web worms, and whatever is on your mind.

Hour 4 of Ottawa Now for Thurs. August 13th, 2026

We have got an interesting story out of The Trillium today, as Ford’s Progressive Conservatives were allegedly spying on now-former Liberal leader Bonnie Crombie during her Jamaican beach vacation. This happened while she was leading the Ontario Liberals – a role that she vacated earlier this year. Charlie Pinkerton joins us with the latest developments in Hour 2. And in this week’s edition of the Reality Check Panel, we tackle Ottawa’s severe flooding this Summer, an uptick in e-scooter injuries, and Premier Ford’s upcoming visit to Canada’s Capital.
