Hour 2 of Ottawa Now for Wed. June 4th, 2025

June 4, 2025

It’s time to get your Spring COVID-19 vaccine, especially if you’re an older adult. Many people aged 65-and-older are not aware that they are currently eligible for another dose, and now is the ideal time to get vaccinated. Guest host Chris Holski picks the brain of Marie-Claude Turcotte, the Director of Health Promotion and the Chief Nursing Officer at Ottawa Public Health. Meantime, U.S. President Donald Trump has officially doubled tariffs on steel and aluminum imports from all countries, including Canada. When asked if the feds plan to retaliate, Prime Minister Mark Carney says they don’t have a gameplan just yet, but talks are ongoing behind closed doors. Peter Warrian, a steel economist at the University of Toronto, delivers his two cents on this complex tug-of-war.
