PODCAST: The Daily Review for Wed. June 17th, 2026

On Tuesday, CTV brought you a story on how Quantum Computing is making massive promises, but is also threatening the foundations of cybersecurity as we know it. Tonight, CTV’s Austin Lee gives us an inside look at a local company, who is looking to reshape the future of digital security. Then, we preview tonight’s CTV Ottawa supper-hour newscast with Jackie Perez and Kimberley Fowler. And if news breaks in real time, you’ll hear it live on CFRA’s Ottawa Now.

Hour 4 of Ottawa Now for Wed. June 17th, 2026

The road in front of two Ottawa schools could be shut down to traffic this Fall, as part of a pilot project to improve safety. Should more schools close their streets during pick-up and drop-off times? Kristy Cameron sifts through the CFRA textboard and tackles today’s Question of the Day. Then, we turn our attention to France, where this year's G7 Summit has officially winded down. However, ahead of a looming CUSMA deadline, Canada's Prime Minister wasn't able to secure a bilateral meeting with U.S. President Trump. CTV's Rachel Aiello joins us from Evian with the latest.

Hour 3 of Ottawa Now for Wed. June 17th, 2026

The Ottawa Police Service has a sexual misconduct problem – and their Chief of Police knows it. Last month, Eric Stubbs issued a very blunt 7-minute video to his officers. In this message that was obtained by CTV Ottawa, he called out a pattern of inappropriate behaviour, and basically told his members that they need to change their behaviour or turn in their badge. OPS Deputy Chief Trish Ferguson joins Kristy Cameron in Hour 2. Turning our attention to Ottawa’s recycling, a new company has taken over collection duties, dating all the way back to January 1st of this year. Miller Waste Systems – under contract to Circular Materials – is now in charge. The switch-over meant that residents could put more in their blue boxes. But as we’ve since discovered, a case of pickup confusion has flared up. We dig deeper with West Carleton-March councillor Clarke Kelly. Plus, some residents in Little Italy were taken aback when they uncovered plans about the future of their homes. In order to make way for a 12-storey building, they would be demolished. CTV’s Leah Larocque fills us in.
