Description

The community of Petawawa is mourning after four Canadian Armed Forces members died in a fire-related training incident at CFB Wainwright in Alberta. Flags at Garrison Petawawa and around the town are flying at half-mast as residents express condolences to those affected; A new Nanos Research poll commissioned by the Ottawa Mission finds that more Ottawa residents believe they or someone close to them could face homelessness. Thirty-three per cent say they believe they are at some risk, up from 28 per cent in 2019, while 56 per cent believe someone they care about is at risk; The Ottawa Safety Council says crossing guards are seeing increasingly dangerous behaviour from drivers near school intersections. Guards report motorists pushing through crossings before pedestrians have cleared the road, with at least three incidents involving pedestrians struck by vehicles while crossing guards were present since the school year began and Ottawa entrepreneurs gathered for Invest Ottawa’s Small Business Summit on Monday to discuss the challenges and opportunities of running a business in an uncertain economy.
