About Ottawa
Located on the south bank of Ottawa River, Ottawa is the capital city of Canada. It has a population of nearly a million, which makes it the fourth largest city of Canada.
It was discovered in 1826 as by-town but officially incorporated in 1855, and it has evolved to become the political center of Canada. Its boundaries started to spread through numerous acquisitions and annexations.
The city was given its name due to the Ottawa River which is driven from Odawa which means “to trade”.
