Hour 2 of Ottawa Now for Mon. November 10th, 2025

As the Carney Liberals try to pass the Canada Strong Budget through the House of Commons, the Canadian Tories are dealing with a different type of battle. It spewed into focus last week when a sudden floor-crossing benefited the Carney Liberals. It continued with the sudden resignation of another Tory MP just days later. And now, the floor-crosser has delivered his first TV interview since he made the decision to switch sides. Spoiler alert: He had some scathing reviews about the Blue Team’s leadership group. Kristy Cameron digs deeper with Barry J. McLoughlin, the President of Transformational Leadership Consultants. Switching gears to Health news, Canada has lost its Measles Elimination Status after nearly three decades. This comes amid an ongoing outbreak involving over 5,000 cases across 9 provinces and one territory. Joining us in Hour 2 to outline the ripple effect is Dr. Isaac Bogoch, an infectious disease specialist at the Toronto General Hospital.
