Hour 1 of Ottawa Now for Fri. June 27th, 2025
June 27, 2025
Andrew Pinsent is filling in for Kristy Cameron this afternoon. And before anyone asks, it is raining at her cottage right now. We are starting the program with a conversation about public transportation, and whether the installation of ‘ring roads’ is the best path forward to alleviate traffic headaches. If that isn’t your cup of tea, perhaps another interprovincial bridge could do a better job. On July 10th, the NCC plans to hold public consultations on a bridge proposal, which would cross commuters from the East End over Kettle Island. Sylvie Bigras, the President of the Lowertown Community Association, drops by for a visit in Hour 1. Plus, we continue to tip our cap to Canadian innovators who make this country great. And as we prepare to conclude our ‘Proudly Canadian’ segment, we find out how the shawarma dominated our city’s landscape.
