PODCAST: The Daily Review for Tues. March 31st, 2026

Finding a place to live isn’t easy, and a lot of people can relate to the struggle of scouring online marketplaces to find an acceptable rental space. What makes it borderline unbearable for students is the high cost of living, online marketplace scams, and a full school workload. Oh, and you might be stuck with an unpleasant roommate. Aidan Fitzmaurice, a UOttawa student and the founder of Next Room Incorporated, is on a mission to change that. He joins Kristy Cameron in Hour 2. Meantime, if you’ve taken the O-Train recently, you might be noticing the shorthanded fleet of train cars. But another thing you might have noticed is that the LRT washrooms are closed. We check in with Barrhaven East councillor and Transit Committee member Wilson Lo. Then, we are greeted by Bessa Whitmore, who is a member of the Gotta Go Ottawa campaign. And finally, Canada Post is officially ditching door-to-door delivery. And by that, we really do mean all of it. CFRA’s Chris Holski explains.

Hour 2 of Ottawa Now for Tues. March 31st, 2026

The Canadian Taxpayers Federation is calling on the federal and provincial governments to cut taxes, providing relief on the soaring costs of gas. The price-per-litre is set to surpass $1.80, a jump of roughly 5 cents from the current average across Canada’s Capital. While Canada has maintained its current tax structure, other nations are moving to insulate citizens from some of the sticker shock. Those countries include – to name a few – Spain, Portugal, Italy, Ireland, and Australia. We dig deeper with Colin Mang, an economist at McMaster University, in Hour 1. And later in the program, we check in with Franco Terrazzano, the Federal Director of the Canadian Taxpayers Federation. Plus, a pending report to the city’s Finance and Corporate Service Committee paints a tough picture for the local economy in 2026. CFRA’s Andrew Pinsent fills us in.
