Grocery prices rose 2.8 per cent, while gasoline prices climbed nearly 23 per cent from a year earlier and diesel prices reached all-time highs in Ottawa; CTV's Josh Marano reports on a shifting retail market in Ottawa, where downtown vacancies remain high while desirable suburban commercial space is becoming harder to find. Businesses downtown are watching to see how the return-to-office mandate affects foot traffic before signing leases and CTV's Katie Griffin reports on documents obtained through a Freedom of Information request that shed light on the decision to launch unused Canada Day fireworks during Bluesfest. The fireworks were launched just before 11 p.m. on July 9 after the Canada Day show at Lebreton Flats was cancelled due to a storm.
