Canadas Forgotten Capital: Ottawa »
Posted By nightcrawlerX 7 months, 2 weeks ago in Political NewsCanada isn’t in the world’s spotlight very often but most people could tell you where Canada is on a map. (Well, maybe not Miss Teen South Carolina ) Ask anyone outside of Canada what the capital of Canada is and you’ll likely be met with a quizzical frown. Why is it that Canada’s capital is such a mystery to non-Canadians? Probably because it’s a mystery to many Canadians as well…

It is a beautiful city. I went there to celebrate Canada Day for the year 2000. It was a great time... never a dull moment.

Good post nightcrawlerX. I admit, if someone said: "Quick, name the Capital of Canada!" I'd say "Harold!"

The story surprised me a little. I thought it was about Canada's other forgotten capital.
Though, with the U S Dollar in the tank, I've got no room to pun. =( -

Wasn't as cramped as that old shoe with that old woman though.
Now that nobody's mentioned it, is the picture of the logs a tourist attraction. Are those regulation logs? How many 2'x4's can you spot?
Quick, name the capital of New Zealand! -

Went to high school in Ottawa and a little known fact, due to Canada harbouring the Dutch Royal Family in WW!! and The Queen being born here, Holland sends tulips every year as appreciation, so now there are more tulips in Ottawa than Holland, quite the sight around Easter.

Humorous comment, Georgia50.

I went to public schools with all of my homies. The best school was in the Detroit public school system, but it was in the '50s.
We had foreign language studies, arts, music (contemporary and classics), Theater arts (we put on Beowulf in the 5th grade). The auditorium was a full theater auditorium. We had all of this along with the standard curriculum.
We moved to a small town in the '60s. It was a culture shock to say the least. In Day-Twah, my sister and I where two of maybe twenty white kids that attended Winterhalter (named for Admiral Winterhalter). In the country, we went to a predominantly white school. It sucked.
