Today is not Budget Day – officially. However, it’s the first big step before a final decision is reached in December. Earlier this morning, Ottawa City Council introduced the financial gameplans for 2026, which includes a transit fare increase and a police budget increase. Overall, are you satisfied with this vision? Which areas of the budget aren’t getting enough attention? Kristy Cameron sifts through the CFRA textboard and tackles today’s Question of the Day. Meantime, we are getting an update to one of the weirdest local stories of 2025. CFRA’s Chris Holski has more on that. Plus, a country singer named Breaking Rust has topped the Billboard charts with a new single. It’s called ‘Walk My Walk’. And it’s not real – because this artist is generated by Artificial Intelligence. Shruti Shekar from Android Central tries to wrap her head around the song that is fooling everybody.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
