Hour 1 of Ottawa Now for Mon. June 30th, 2025

As we inch closer to Canada Day, Kristy Cameron is in her element. She has always joked about hosting a live radio show from a Downtown patio. Today, she finally gets her wish! And a fireworks extravaganza is a great way to kick things off! Beacon Hill-Cyrville councillor Tim Tierney explains further in Hour 1. Later in the show, we explore all 4 corners of Canadian beauty with veteran media personality Sam Laprade, as she shares a few of the Canadian-filled stories she has told over her 35-year career. Plus, if you are looking for a hangout spot just steps away from Parliament Hill, Tavern On The Hill is the place to be. We chat with local restaurant owner Andre Schad, as the iconic location at Major’s Hill Park inches closer to 10 years in business.
