Ottawa, a city of about 1 million people, is the capital of Canada and anchors the Ottawa-Gatineau region of about 1.5 million on the Ontario-Quebec border. Parliament Hill, the Rideau Canal and the ByWard Market draw millions of tourists, and the canal becomes the world's largest skating rink during Winterlude.
The federal government is the largest employer, and a growing tech sector, the University of Ottawa and Carleton University add professionals and students. Highway 417 (the Queensway) runs east and west through the city, and Highways 416 and 174 connect the suburbs, so billboards reach commuters, students and visitors in English and French.
