Hour 2 of Ottawa Now for Mon. June 30th, 2025

June 30, 2025

Canada is another year older, and we have a lot to celebrate about this great nation. However, like any other place in this world, it has its warts and blemishes. How far has today’s Canada come with Indigenous Peoples, and how far does it still have to go to achieve inner peace and reconciliation? Claudette Commanda, an Indigenous rights activist, joins Kristy Cameron in Hour 2. Shifting gears to Tuesday’s celebrations, if you are looking to soak in the Canadian fun, there is plenty of fun and games outside the Downtown Core. We examine the festivities in Kanata, Barrhaven, and Orleans. On the other hand, if you are dropping by LeBreton Flats, perhaps you’ll come across this Ottawa-born singer and songwriter. Talk pays us a visit ahead of his Canada Day performance.
