Hour 3 of Ottawa Now for Thurs. February 26th, 2026

Today’s Public Works and Infrastructure meeting got a little testy, as the right-on-red debate was revived by Somerset councillor Ariel Troster. In response, Beacon Hill-Cyrville councillor Tim Tierney brought forth a motion to maintain the status quo. Do you think that City Council should reconsider the proposed ban? Kristy Cameron sifts through the CFRA textboard and tackles today’s Question of the Day. Meantime, an American airport was causing quite the stir on Thursday, announcing it wanted to ban travellers from wearing pyjamas. In a lighthearted message on social media, the Tampa Bay Airport later admitted that it was all for jokes and giggles. However, some people say it’s not a laughing matter, and they want that comfy trend to go away. We dig deeper with etiquette expert Julie Blais-Comeau in Hour 3. And with March Break just around the corner, travel expert Barry Choi has some important FYI’s for you to consider.
