Hour 2 of Ottawa Now for Thurs. September 5th, 2024
September 5, 2024
Andrew Pinsent is filling in for Kristy Cameron, as she enjoys her wedding vacation. City councillors have returned from their much-needed Summer Break, and they have discussed plenty of items over the past few days. The biggest item on the menu was Mayor Sutcliffe’s fairness campaign. He has recently petitioned upper levels of government to pay their fair share of the city’s expenses, most notably for Ottawa’s public transit. And in a unanimous vote, everyone supported Sutcliffe’s plan. We get instant reaction from Beacon Hill-Cyrville councillor Tim Tierney. Plus, the day has finally arrived in Ontario, as customers can officially purchase alcohol at all provincial cornerstores. Well, at the moment, most of them.
