Ottawa's the place to be!
 Ottawa is more than just home to the Federal Government of Canada. Canada's capital city is fast becoming the Canada's technology capital as well. Today, Ottawa's region has become the 4th largest population centre in the country.
Nestled at the junction of three picturesque rivers, Ottawa is considered one of the world’s most beautiful capitals. The city also borders the province of Québec, creating a dynamic cultural milieu in which both French and English cultures are deeply rooted. The result is a truly cosmopolitan experience—a North American city with a distinctly European charm and flair.
The city's rich ethnic diversity also includes thriving German, Lebanese, Italian, Polish, Dutch, Portuguese, and Asian communities, among others. Throughout the year, these communities celebrate their heritage in many colourful multicultural festivals and events.
The seat of Canada’s federal government, Ottawa is a major centre for the visual and performing arts. Yet the city retains the accessibility, atmosphere and charm of a smaller centre—rich in wide-open green spaces, parks and wilderness areas.
What was once a quiet government town, has become a metropolis of small and large technology businesses, exciting entertainment centres, and world class tourist attractions. Ottawa boasts a multitude of progressive job opportunities. While Ottawa has grown, it has also retained its green space, cultural charm and heritage and its home town appeal.
A four-hour drive north-east of Toronto and two hours west of Montreal, Ottawa presents visitors with a wide selection of sightseeing and outdoor-leisure options. In fact, with more than a dozen national museums and galleries—and a full calendar of festivals and activities—Canada’s Capital Region has something for everyone.
