Hour 4 of Ottawa Now for Wed. April 8th, 2026

April 8, 2026

Effective this season, the Rideau-Carleton Raceway will be shutting down its harness racing operations, signaling the end of a horseracing tradition that has spanned more than 60 years. Hard Rock Hotel and Casino Ottawa says a string of financial stability concerns forced their hand, despite investing ‘millions of dollars’ in infrastructure upgrades. Brian Scott, a horse stable owner who lives in Brinston, explains how this decision has impacted his Ontario farm. Then, we preview tonight's CTV Ottawa supper-hour newscast with Jackie Perez and Austin Lee. And if news breaks in real time, you'll hear it live on CFRA's Ottawa Now.
