Ottawa Now - Crystal Beach residents feeling the pain after last week's mass flooding

July 7, 2026

Ottawa’s Mayor says he’ll have more information on the rollout of provincial flood support over the coming days, as recovery from last week’s record-setting rainfall continues. Mark Sutcliffe says he spoke to Premier Doug Ford on Friday about the Disaster Recovery Assistance for Ontarians Program, and has since spoken with several Ontario Ministers about the subject. Kent Osgoode, a contractor who lives on Solva Drive in Crystal Beach, is one of many Bay Ward residents feeling the pain. Most of his neighbours’ homes have been flooded, while Osgoode’s basement was greeted with 14 inches of water on July 1st. He joins Kristy Cameron on today’s Ottawa Now.
