Hour 3 of Ottawa Now for Fri. April 24th, 2026

Potholes are back, folks. In some areas, they are back in droves. In some areas, according to the OPP, they are causing serious damage to vehicles. What has your pothole experience been like this season? Guest host Chris Holski sifts through the CFRA textboard and tackles today’s Question of the Day. Shifting gears to Queen’s Park, the Ford government has introduced its Budget Bill, which includes measures to cap resale ticket prices. In other words, tickets can’t be resold for more than the original price. But how much will it help today’s consumers? Music expert and publicist Eric Alper pays us a visit in Hour 3. Plus, we check in with Pascal Mathieu, the Vice-President of Quebec’s Red Cross, as some Gatineau homes remain underwater due to flooding.
