Hour 3 of Ottawa Now for Thurs. February 20th, 2025

A new Leger poll surveyed 1,500 Canadians and 1,000 Americans from February 14th to February 17th. Out of those respondents, 27 percent of Canadians classify the U.S. as an ‘enemy country’. Granted, the majority still classifies America as an ally, but that majority is gradually shrinking. How do you currently view the United States right now? And if you were at the 4 Nations Faceoff Finals in Boston, would you vent your frustrations and boo the Star-Spangled Banner? Kristy Cameron sifts through the textboard and tackles today’s Question of the Day. Sticking with the Canada-USA rivalry, Canadian consumers are gradually giving American products the cold shoulder in favour of Canadian-made options. Donald Wingell, the owner of Dhruvees in New Edinburgh, is parting ways with American selections on his menu, vowing to go all-Canadian moving forward. He joins the show in Hour 3.
