An Ontario cabinet minister, Jill Dunlop, says the province reminded the City of Ottawa that help was available after the July 1 flood, and that the mayor’s office took eight days to request assistance. The claim hasn’t been confirmed, and the Leiper campaign is now asking for the paper trail. https://t.co/GBqMMspdgz
The backbone of our transit network was running at half capacity for almost six months.
OC Transpo executives who drive to work don't know how cold their platforms get in February.
