Hour 4 of Ottawa Now for Thurs. February 20th, 2025

Delta Airlines is offering $30,000 in compensation fees to the passengers of Flight 4819, the airplane that crashed at Toronto’s Pearson Airport on Monday afternoon. In a statement from a Delta Airlines spokesperson, there are no strings attached with this sum of money. The key takeaway is that nobody lost their lives, an absolute miracle when you consider that the plane hit the tarmac upside down. And while 21 passengers had been sent to the hospital for further treatments, all of them have since been released and none of their injuries are life-threatening. Is this fair compensation? Kristy Cameron chats with Tracy Brammeier, a partner at Chicago-based Clifford Law Offices. Meantime, the province of Quebec is preparing to crack down on expired license plates. If you found out that your neighbour was driving with an expired plate, would you rat them out? We pose that question to CTV’s Matt Skube.
