The Morning Rush - The Inbox - September 12, 2025

Earlier today, the Carney Liberals were tabling a revised bill in the House of Commons, aiming to give police officers new powers. CTV’s Natalie Van Rooy delivers the details in Hour 4. 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 Thurs. March 12th, 2026

Are you worried about the future of Ottawa’s transit system? It seems like a drawn-out question, and we hate to keep asking it, but it’s once again worth asking. In the latest edition of LRT Drama on CFRA, an ice storm got the better of an overhead power line on LRT Line 1, shutting down service at Lees Station for Wednesday afternoon and all day Thursday. Crews have been hard at work from dawn to dusk, trying to restore service. And while everyone is hopeful that service can be brought back to life by the weekend, nothing is guaranteed. Have you given up on the transit system that is supposed to make things better? Kristy Cameron sifts through the CFRA textboard and tackles today’s Question of the Day. Plus, the freezing rain might have stopped falling, but a crowd of neighbouring regions in Quebec are still powerless after the lights went out during Wednesday’s storm. We get an update from Caroline Milliard, a Hydro Quebec spokesperson in the Outaouais Region.

Hour 3 of Ottawa Now for Thurs. March 12th, 2026

Ottawa city councillors unanimously approved a $200 million revitalization plan for the ByWard Market, with several key amendments proposed by Rideau-Vanier councillor Stéphanie Plante. It includes pedestrian-friendly initiatives, increased after-hours daycare spots to cater to the Market’s nightlife economy, and 24/7 accessible public washrooms. It also recognizes the importance and impact of Ottawa’s social services, particularly in the Downtown Core where they are highly concentrated. Joining us with her reaction is Sylvie Bigras, the President of the Lowertown Community Association. Meantime, as the price of oil and gas skyrockets due to the Iran War, experts fear that grocery prices will be next. We dig deeper in Hour 2 with Sylvain Charlebois, a Senior Director with the Agri-Food Analytics Lab at Dalhousie University. But you can just call him ‘The Food Professor’.
