Woman hit by falling tree in Almonte dies from injuries: OPP
A tree near the intersection of Ann and Church streets in Almonte, Ont. fell on a 34-year-old woman, causing critical injuries. July 8, 2025. (Katie Griffin/CTV News Ottawa) A 34-year-old woman who was struck by a large tree limb in Almonte last week has died from her injuries, Ontario Provincial Police say. OPP say officers and first responders were called to the intersection of Ann and Church streets shortly before 8:30 a.m. on Tuesday, July 8. The woman, a resident of Mississippi Mills Township, was transported to hospital in critical condition. Police were told Sunday she had died from her injuries sustained in the incident. Crews spent hours last week cutting the tree down with chainsaws, which appeared to be rotten on the inside. The incident happened one day after a large storm passed through the area. The municipality of Mississippi Mills said in a statement at the time that it 'took swift action and called a professional arborist, Ottawa Valley Tree service, to the site who deemed the tree unsafe.' The investigation is ongoing in conjunction with the Office of the Chief Coroner, OPP say. With files from CTV News Ottawa's Ted Raymond and Katie Griffin

Scotiabank to close branch at Carleton University this summer
Scotiabank is closing its branch at Carleton University on Aug. 5. (Katie Griffin/CTV News Ottawa) Scotiabank is cashing out of Carleton University, closing its branch at the campus of the Ottawa University. In a statement to CTV News Ottawa, Scotiabank said it has 'made the difficult decision' to close the Carleton University branch on August 5 and relocate in-person services to its branch at 1145 Bank Street, near Belmont Avenue. 'With client preferences changing, and more day-to-day banking being done digitally, we are continuing to evolve how we serve our clients and invest in areas that make it easier for them to bank with us from wherever they are,' Scotiabank said. 'We are committed to supporting our customers, employees and communities through this transition.' When asked if the Automated Banking Machine would remain on campus, Scotiabank said it had no further information about its services at Carleton University. In March, the Scotiabank branch inside Paterson Hall switched to 'advice services only,' and eliminated tellers providing over-the-counter cash services, including allowing customers to deposit cash or make bill payments. The ABM machine remains at Carleton University through the spring. Carleton University A Scotiabank automated banking machine (ABM) at Carleton University.

RBC has a branch on the campus of the University of Ottawa, called a 'financial literacy centre for students.'
