Ottawa’s homeless population will be looking to escape the frigid temperatures very soon. Instead of the city’s well-known homeless shelters, they could be directed to nearby community centres, filled with bunk beds and military-style tents. We go 1-on-1 with Orleans West-Innes councillor Laura Dudas in Hour 1. On a few occasions this year, we’ve had some extremely passionate debates about self-checkout lines. Today, we are delivering a brand-new update to this legendary saga. Plus, after deciding to cut down a pine tree plantation on Hunt Club Road, the Ottawa International Airport Authority has cited several reports from forester Fraser Smith. However, Smith insists that he never suggested to cut down the entire land, and he denies that the forest in its entirety posed an immediate threat to public safety.
