Hour 2 of Ottawa Now for Thurs. October 16th, 2025

After meeting with the Stellantis big-wigs, Prime Minister Carney has received assurances that the company will remain committed to Brampton. This comes days after the company announced plans to move their Brampton plant to Illinois. This afternoon, Carney is meeting with Ontario’s Premier, as Doug Ford suggests hitting back against U.S. President Trump if a trade deal can’t be reached. Brampton city councillor Rowena Santos joins Kristy Cameron in Hour 2. Turning to provincial matters of a different kind, the recently-appointed OCDSB supervisor was in attendance for Wednesday’s public meeting, and he had to field a fair amount of questions from concerned parents. We get the details from CTV’s Shaun Vardon. Then, we check in with OCDSB Trustee Lyra Evans. Plus, as Microsoft officially halts support for Windows 10 devices, they are going A.I. heavy for Windows 11 consumers. CFRA’s Chris Holski has more on that.
