Hour 2 of Ottawa Now for Fri. July 10th, 2026

July 10, 2026

It’s been 9 days since the historic Canada Day floods took a bite out of the city’s basement dwellings, as hundreds of homeowners deal with significant property damage. And as residents and politicians await answers from the City of Ottawa and the Ford government, patience is gradually giving way to frustration. College Ward councillor Laine Johnson tells Kristy Cameron what’s on her mind, and explains who needs to step up with solutions.

The reaction continues in Hour 2 with Alta Vista councillor Marty Carr. Plus, a former Prime Minister of Canada has appeared on a Katy Perry TikTok. You have 5 seconds to guess which one made a cameo. Then, CFRA’s Chris Holski spoils the surprise.

These firms may also need to increase their customs-bond coverage, which guarantees payment of duties and fees if an importer defaults, as higher tariffs increase the U.S. government’s exposure. But trade lawyers and customs professionals say another change could affect far more Canadian exporters. On June...
