Hour 2 of Ottawa Now for Mon. April 1st, 2024

In 2022, the price of everything was skyrocketing. Two years later, it’s not getting any better. In fact, it’s gotten to the point where a Canadian’s final wishes have become unaffordable. And now, the Funeral Services Association of Canada is calling on the feds to step up their game. President Jeff Weafer joins Kristy Cameron in Hour 2. Meantime, some of Ottawa’s landmark festivals are also feeling the financial burn, as the Canadian Tulip Festival plans to cut back on some of its festivities for 2024. Plus, while we might be in for a nasty commute on Wednesday, Jack Frost’s final breaths of Winter will give way to some terrific seasonal forecasts next week.
