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

July 21, 2025

Toronto City Council is debating whether Canada’s biggest city needs a ‘Traffic Czar’ to tame its commuting hiccups and flaws. Is it time that our municipality explores a similar conversation, or would creating this specialized role lead to more money wasted and even more problems? Guest host Chris Holski sifts through the textboard and tackles today’s Question of the Day. Meantime, a tragic 2023 car crash on Fallowfield Road has reached its conclusion at an Ottawa courthouse. The driver at fault is receiving prison time, while the family of the victim is sentenced to a lifetime of suffering. CTV’s Katelyn Wilson delivers the details in Hour 3. Plus, it’s a Monday afternoon, which means it’s time to chat politics with our Political Heat Panel.
