Hour 2 of Ottawa Now for Thurs. June 26th, 2025

June 26, 2025

When the city’s top politicians are door-knocking for your votes in 2026, Kitchissippi councillor Jeff Leiper will be among the familiar crowd. However, he won’t be asking to keep his riding. Instead, he is gunning for the biggest seat at Ottawa City Council – the Mayor’s Chair. He joins guest host Andrew Pinsent to explain why he is running to be Mayor of Ottawa. Shifting gears to Health news, Canada’s health industry professionals are calling for a massive reform, and urgently. Could a handful of A.I. tools fuel the solution? We expand this conversation in Hour 2 with Jimmy Yang, a Canada Health Practice lead at Accenture Health. Plus, the community of Mississippi Mills is in mourning after an elementary school student was tragically struck and killed by a school bus.
