Canadian cities on alert

Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson says extra precautions are being put in place in our capital for next month’s Canada 150 celebrations because of the recent terror attacks in Britain.  The Trudeau government is consulting with cities across the  country on their security requirements for Canada Day.

Seven people were killed, including a British Columbia woman, and 48 others were injured when a van plowed into pedestrians walking across London Bridge.
