Hour 3 of Ottawa Now for Mon. March 23rd, 2026

March 23, 2026

Ontario's Legislature is finally back in session after a 102-day Winter Break. And once we get to Thursday, we’ll have a brand-new Provincial Budget to react to. Are you satisfied with the present-day direction of the Ontario government? Do you like the recent steps they have taken? Kristy Cameron sifts through the CFRA textboard and tackles today’s Question of the Day. Meantime, as the Iran War continues into Week 4, gas prices are still going up. In fact, they could reach $1.80 per litre by the end of the week. How is that impacting local businesses? Joining us in Hour 3 is Baudouin St-Cyr, the Executive Director of Meals On Wheels Ottawa. Plus, it’s a Monday afternoon, which means it’s time to talk politics with our Political Heat Panel.

Quebec registered the highest rate of medical assistance in dying, or MAID, by any jurisdiction in the world, contributing 36.3 percent of medically assisted deaths that occurred in the country. If one were to classify MAID as a cause of death in Canada, in 2024 it would have been the fourth after cancer, heart conditions, and accidents, and ahead of cerebrovascular diseases.

Where the seedling body, wearing a smock or a backwards old dress shirt, makes a map: two wells of colour in an egg carton, glossed paper, thick-handled brush. Start with a burst of solar egg, streak with sea. That clotted bloom of overlap, beheld —duckweed, algae, moss—paint’s a skin and then it’s a sinking dream for the gaze. Verdant island blotting at the shores, and the grass is nowhere greener, nowhere is it greener than this place.The post Wish You Were Here first appeared on The Walrus.
