City - Ottawa

Ottawa, the capital of Canada, is located in southeastern Ontario. Originally known as a trading and lumber city, Ottawa became the capital in 1867. Due to its location between English-speaking Ontario and French-speaking Quebec, Ottawa is one of the most bilingual cities in Canada. The metropolitan area spans the Ottawa River, giving residents beautiful scenic views of the city. Ottawa’s largest employer is the federal government. If you work in other industries, many jobs are also provided by the technology and telecommunications sectors. The University of Ottawa and Carleton University are also located in the city. Along with tons of employment and education options, Ottawa offers plenty to do.

Residents enjoy opportunities for outdoor activities in large parks and green spaces. Check out Rideau Canal National Park, one of the oldest landmarks.
