Hour 1 of Ottawa Now for Wed. April 2nd, 2025
April 2, 2025
A new report suggests that Canada needs a situation room to deal with the United States, as President Donald Trump has turned our southern neighbours into an ‘unreliable and hostile’ colleague. The new deals that have been signed in recent years are not worth the paper they were printed on, and that is mainly thanks to Trump’s trade war. Kristy Cameron digs deeper with Perrin Beatty, a former Defence Minister and business leader. Today, he is a member of the Expert Group on Canada-U.S. Relations. Here at home, today marks the start of a coroner’s inquest into the deaths of 3 OC Transpo passengers, all of whom were killed in the 2019 Westboro bus crash. The 21-day inquest will examine the cause and circumstances of the crash in detail, and it will deliver recommendations as to how further deaths can be prevented. CTV’s Katie Griffin joins the show in Hour 1.
