Canada’s capital city, Ottawa, can fill several days with shopping and sightseeing. Once you’ve explored the historic downtown – both the museums as well as the parliamentary district – be sure to explore some of the city’s wonderful neighbourhoods.

My first trip to Quebec was to the province’s largest city, Montreal. As I’ve mentioned, I love Montreal. On my recent trip to Ottawa, I stayed in Gatineau, which is the French half of Canada’s capital. It was there that I found the profound (and waistline-influencing) importance of food in Quebec.
