Hour 1 of Ottawa Now for Fri. July 11th, 2025

July 11, 2025

Andrew Pinsent is filling in for Kristy Cameron this afternoon. As we heard last month, the province is assuming control of a quartet of school boards. One of them is Ottawa’s largest. And ever since a knock on the door from the provincial supervisor, there has been a ‘communications blackout’ at the OCDSB, as trustees and school officials are now locked out of their work accounts. Trustee Lyra Evans pays us a visit in Hour 1 to address an uncertain future. Meantime, we have officially entered Day 2 of RBC Bluesfest, as the crowds continue to roll into LeBreton Flats. On the second-to-last day of this year’s festivities, an Ottawa-based pop-punk band will be taking the stage. Andy chats with We Were Sharks vocalist Randy Frobel. But first, we bring you up to speed on today’s top headlines.

A judge who found the complainant in the Hockey Canada trial to be untruthful in a ruling that acquitted five former junior players of sexual assault has come under strong criticism, after a judgment starkly at odds with a growing public emphasis on believing women.But Ontario Superior Court Justice Maria Carroccia is also being praised as brave for calling it as she saw it in her 91-page written decision on Thursday, despite a potentially hostile public reception.

Legal experts say while the judge's reasoning on consent may raise concerns, the decision itself appears legally sound and may not form enough basis for an appeal.
