Living in Ottawa

The Ottawa area is ranked well internationally in terms of its quality of life; Canada’s capital city features low crime rates, environmental cleanliness, efficient public services, political stability, and excellent economic and social conditions. A large, cosmopolitan city, Ottawa is known for its position as the capital of Canada, but also for its bilingualism, performing arts and the famous ByWard Market.

Ottawa is often referred to as Canada’s most beautiful city. The Rideau Canal winds its way throughout the city. In the winter, this beautiful waterway (and a UNESCO heritage site) is transformed into the world’s largest skating rink, drawing tourists and locals alike.

The strong economy and business development ensure plenty of employment opportunities, and the city features a thriving high tech and business centre (companies like Dell, Cognos and Nortel call Ottawa home), tourist industry and convention destination.

With three universities in the Ottawa region (Carleton University, the University of Ottawa and Université de Québec à Hull) and two community colleges (Algonquin College and La Cité Collegiale), Ottawa has a strong student culture. And, with that comes a lively nightlife, theatre scene and musical events.

But Ottawa also is extremely family-oriented, with lots of unique shopping areas that feature locally crafted, one-of-a-kind and antique products. Take a walk along the Bank Street Promenade, browse the fresh produce and intriguing boutiques at the ByWard Market, or check out the chic fashions in the Glebe. Sparks Street Mall is Canada’s oldest pedestrian mall, and is popular place to stroll along, or sit in café and watch the world go by.

When it comes to culture and events, Ottawa is chockablock with museums, art galleries, cultural centres, festivals and attractions. Both tourists and local Ottawans flock to the National Gallery of Canada, home to the world’s largest collection of Canadian art. For music, opera and variety performances, in both French and English, the National Arts Centre is without rival.
