He’s From Ottawa and Never Skated the Canal?!

What happens when a lifelong Ottawan admits he’s never skated the Rideau Canal? Stefan Keyes shares the shock of that confession and helps unpack a wild year in Canada’s capital — one that included viral soccer, public service chaos, and a haunting small-town tragedy.

From the billion-view “icicle kick” to federal job cuts threatening 28,000 workers, Stefan brings both local insight and national perspective. They also dig into the ripple effects of political change, why Ottawa’s economy is on edge, and how one brutal crime redefined a community.

Discover the real impact of the year’s biggest headlines — and why one of them involves a bunny hill in Calgary.
