Hour 2 of Ottawa Now for Wed. March 25th, 2026

Ahead of Thursday’s Ontario Budget, the Ford government is extending the full HST rebate to all new homebuyers, for all properties under $1 million. Does this plan move the needle, or does it fall short? We dig deeper with Steve Pomeroy, an Industry Professor at McMaster University. Later in Hour 2, we go 1-on-1 with Ontario Housing Minister Rob Flack. Plus, in just a few months, you can fly from Ottawa straight to Hamilton with Porter Airlines. CFRA’s Chris Holski has some tourist suggestions in mind if you plan on making the trip.
