Hour 1 of Ottawa Now for Tues. February 17th, 2026

February 17, 2026

An Ottawa city councillor wants to ban feeding wild animals, and plans to introduce her motion to City Committee this Thursday. Laura Dudas is the voice for Orleans West-Innes. She argues that feeding wildlife can attract rodents, hence her request to tighten the present-day legislation. Dudas joins Kristy Cameron to explain further. Later in the show, we pick the brain of Nathaniel Heppell, a wildlife control specialist who also operates Ace Wildlife and Pest Control. But first, we bring you up to speed on today’s top headlines.
