Hour 1 of Ottawa Now for Tues. February 25th, 2025
February 25, 2025
We start the show with some municipal politics, as an Ottawa city councillor is encouraging the municipality to abandon 'X' and transfer to a different social media platform. Laura Dudas explains further in Hour 1. Shifting gears to law enforcement, the Ottawa Police plan to staff a new team inside the Parliamentary Precinct. CTV's Josh Pringle delivers the latest developments. Plus, should FIFA athletes and VIPs get priority healthcare access? Kerry Bowman, a Professor of Bioethics and Global Health at the University of Toronto, says it's bad optics. And finally, we have breaking news out of Newfoundland and Labrador, as Premier Andrew Furey has decided to step down. He becomes the second Canadian Premier to resign in less than a week.
