Ottawa’s recent Car Free Day was anything but.

Three major fires in Centretown in the last three weeks have left five people dead and 31 homeless, causing more than $2 million in property damage.

Drug dealing, prostitution and disruption in its buildings have forced the Ottawa Community Housing Corporation to consider a new security initiative to improve safety on their properties.

School officials are giving a poor grade to a recent report that claims Centretown elementary schools are underperforming, saying that despite what statistics might show, the schools are doing just fine.
