Ottawa is the capital city and political powerhouse of Canada. It lies in eastern Ontario, at the confluence of Ottawa, Gatineau and Rideau rivers. It borders Gatineau in Quebec and together the two form the National Capital Region (NCR).

With one of the most educated populations in Canada, Ottawa has the nation’s highest standard of living and lowest unemployment rate. It also enjoys the distinction of being one of the cleanest cities in the world.

Even though it’s not the cheapest, Ottawa is relatively more affordable for housing than Toronto and Montreal and it generally enjoys lower car insurance rates than most big cities in Ontario.

And if you wish to participate in some national festivities like Canada Day or Winterlude, head over to the Jacques-Cartier Park.
