Hour 3 of Ottawa Now for Wed. June 18th, 2025

June 18, 2025

Throughout today’s show, we’ve been picking your brains about the concept of ‘micro-retirement’. Here it is, in a nutshell. If you’re looking for a career change, and you are nearing your thirties or forties, a short-term retirement gives you the time and space to find a new career path and find a better way of life. Of course, you would need some financial savings to make that brief retirement financially possible. Is this something you would try? And if the answer is ‘No’, what factors are holding you back? Kristy Cameron sifts through the CFRA textboard and tackles today’s Question of the Day. Meantime, bylaw officers have their eyes wide-open, as their recent parking ticket blitz heats up. In fact, it has occasionally stretched into some of Ottawa’s suburban communities. Are they targeting certain areas of Canada’s Capital, or are they simply headed to where the complaints are coming from? We dig deeper with Jonathan Walden, a Public Information Officer for Ottawa Bylaw and Regulatory Services. Plus, as Prime Minister Mark Carney wraps up the G7 Summit, did he hold his own in Kananaskis? Fen Hampson, a Professor of International Affairs at Carleton University, grades his debut showing.
