Hour 1 of Ottawa Now for Wed. June 18th, 2025

And just like that, the G7 Summit has wrapped up in Kananaskis! But how would you grade it? How did Canada look on the world stage? What was accomplished between the G7 leaders, and what still needs to happen? Kristy Cameron delivers the key takeaways in Hour 1. As the economy shifts, the idea of a full-time retirement is changing, especially among Millennials. In fact, a growing group of Canadians are thinking of adopting a backup plan. It’s called ‘micro-retirement’. For the so-called ‘Burnout Generation’, the loss-of-passion for their current career, coupled with a higher cost of living and limited employment opportunities, is giving birth to a new mindset. And with today’s workforce living longer and working longer, a short-term retirement in your thirties or forties doesn’t sound like a crazy idea. Would you hit the Reset button, ‘retire’ for a little while, and start fresh? And if you say ‘Yes’, what tips and tricks should you know before taking that leap of faith? Sumana Jeddy, a Calgary-based work wellness consultant, offers her two cents.
