Hour 3 of Ottawa Now for Tues. September 9th, 2025

Back in July, Ottawa city councillors had floated the idea of a payraise, which would be up to $18,000. At the time, Mayor Mark Sutcliffe said he wouldn’t back it. But now, it’s about to become a conversation, as Capital Ward councillor Shawn Menard provides a proposal to City Council. If a payraise gets the green light, we wouldn’t see it until November 2026, just after the upcoming municipal election. As we brace for potential tax increases, does this gain your approval or grind your gears? Kristy Cameron sifts through the textboard and tackles today’s Question of the Day. Plus, a growing crowd of parents at a Catholic school in Nepean are criticizing the student’s school commute, claiming it to be unsafe. One of those concerned parents is Sandra McGrath, whose daughter is a Grade 1 student at Our Lady of Peace. She joins the program in Hour 3.
