While the politics of Canada's Parliament may be as
boring as watching a maple tree grow, Canada's capital
city, Ottawa, on the other hand, is a lively city that
parties harder than a hockey check.

Although the downtown club district is smaller than
other major cities, don't let the size fool you.
Ottawa has more than its share of hot dance clubs,
rocking' music venues and raging bars.
The most happening spots downtown are dispersed on
Elgin and York streets. At the many nightspots, you'll
find students, young professionals, politicos and
tourists getting down and getting drunk. Clubs here
range from casual to upscale and live music covers
everything from blues to punk.
Ottawa also has a world-class casino for the gamers
and is a popular spot for tourist from across the US
border which is only an hour away.
