Hour 1 of Ottawa Now for Thurs. May 29th, 2025

May 29, 2025

If you head down George Street, and pass by the Salvation Army, you’ll notice a cluster of tents set up in front of the shelter. It’s an ever-growing encampment that has been set up by unhoused people. And for the past several months, Rideau-Vanier councillor Stéphanie Plante has been tirelessly trying to find a solution, only to be met with what she calls a ‘lack of action’ from the City of Ottawa. Plante joins Kristy Cameron to vent her frustrations. On the lighter side of the news cycle, Canadian Heritage has unveiled the Canada Day itinerary for 2025. Who will be performing, and where can people find the flagship festivities? Melanie Brault delivers the details in Hour 1. But first, we bring you up to speed on today’s top headlines.
