Kristy Cameron sifts through the textboard and tackles today’s Question of the Day. Meantime, the City of Ottawa is exploring the idea of a ‘bubble bylaw’, a piece of municipal legislation that would restrict the locations of lawful protests.

Mayor Sutcliffe says he supports a balanced approach, and admits that this measure is just the beginning of a much broader process. Kitchissippi councillor Jeff Leiper hops on the program to illustrate his stance on the matter.
