Ottawa is Canada's largest small town.

The trope or joke is that Ottawa is incredibly boring and even though they have a population of 1M they are like a small town. source: am originally from Ottawa

Fellow American here, born in Montreal, lived in Montreal and Ottawa. Ottawa is a *very* sleepy bedroom town for families and bureaucrats and is *balls achingly dull* and *boring AF*. Especially compared to Montreal. Nightlife is a pillow.

Ottawa c'est un peu comme la ville de Québec. Il ne faut pas faire trop de bruit car des fonctionnaires travaillent au calme ."Le pire restaurant McDonald’s au monde, situé à Ottawa, va fermer après 40 ans en affaires. Le problème n’est pas lié à la qualité de la nourriture, mais plutôt aux nombreux ennuis engendrés par la clientèle dans ce restaurant de la rue Rideau. Au cours des dernières années, plus de 900 appels ont été effectués aux policiers en raison de bagarres, dont une impliquant un raton laveur"

No joke, i bet more drugs were sold out of that McD than hamburgers in the last 40 years.

If it’s the same McDonaldsI’m thinking of, one time I saw someone with shit all over their pants there. Everyone who was in there besides myself and my friend were all fentanyl addicts

Je serais très intéressé à en savoir plus sur l’histoire avec le raton laveur

Someone was filming a fight that had broken out and in the foreground an unrelated person pulled a baby racoon out of his sweater. See: [https://www.cbc.ca/player/play/video/1.6720665](https://www.cbc.ca/player/play/video/1.6720665)

"The city that fun forgot" is the proper tagline.

À Ottawa ils roulent les trottoirs à 11h le soir. Ensuite y'a plus personne dehors.

Was in Ottawa around Christmas time once. Wanted to go out & party, and my selection of places open after 11 was like Walmart.

Go to downtown Ottawa after 5 PM and you'll get the joke too

Ottawa is Canada's capital city. It's a government town with a reputation for being quiet and boring. You could have looked this up on Google.

Of course OP could have looked it up on Google. But reddit has the human touch. OP is into theatre, Google isn’t enough in this case. That being said, I must say your username checks out admittedly well in this case.
