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.
