Hour 3 of Ottawa Now for Fri. May 9th, 2025

May 9, 2025
According to the new U.S. Ambassador to Canada, the ‘51st State’ rhetoric is a thing of the past after U.S. President Trump’s meeting with Prime Minister Carney. He said the relationship between the two sides can be repaired, but it has been pretty rocky over the past little while. At the same time, Pete Hoekstra says this type of rhetoric isn’t new, and that it had been addressed before the Trump regime was revived. Is this idea officially buried six feet under? Kristy Cameron sifts through the textboard and tackles today’s Question of the Day. Speaking of the U.S. President, it appears that he just struck a deal with the United Kingdom. If signed, the U.S. would cut tariffs on U.K. autos, steel, and aluminum. But when asked about whether he would cut other countries some slack from his import taxes, he suggested that nobody hold their breath. We gather instant reaction from Fen Osler Hampson, a Professor of International Affairs at Carleton University. And shifting gears to local law enforcement, the Ottawa Police Service is celebrating a ‘significant step forward’ for its new South End police station. However, it also encountered some early-construction snags. We gather the details from CTV’s Ted Raymond.
