Hour 3 of Ottawa Now for Mon. July 21st, 2025

Toronto City Council is debating whether Canada’s biggest city needs a ‘Traffic Czar’ to tame its commuting hiccups and flaws.

Its red hair on fire. And buying ginger ale at the corner store, I stare at the purple $10 bill a long time, Viola Desmond’s face. Maybe the last purple $10 bill. My last tea at Annapurna. I don’t tell the friendly server I won’t be back. Somewhere, the waves of the sea...
