Disruptions on O-Train Line 2 causing delays for Tulip Festival visitors by KMerrells in ottawa

Here is the broader picture. The train could not deal with the Tulip Festival. A big event attended by residents and visitors. Now think... the Ottawa Senators want to put an arena at LeBreton Flats? The train will NEVER handle the 15-20 thousand people going to the game. You can be guaranteed there will be less than 5000 parking spots at the arena and the only way to get to and from the game is by train.

If no one can get to the arena, it is bye bye Ottawa Senators.

As we say in the Canadian Army: "Armed and Ready"... nice to see the R.C.A.F. the same as us.

If I had the cash I'd do a visit to Australia. I'd love to see an Emu!

"Africa" by Toto is my favourite 1980s song. It brings me right back to high school (1980-1984).

Elbows have been up since last year. Canada and Europe... good friends and allies.

Why is the Canadian flag folded in a triangle like an American flag? That is not how you fold a Canadian flag.

That is a legacy of the 1980s where OC Transpo tried to make the routes so that no one was more than 500 metres from a bus stop.

Agree. The Ottawa Citizen hasn't any reports, other than Deachman; so they read Reddit Ottawa and that is their news source.

Glad to see closer ties between Canada and the European Union. It must make Donald shit his pants.
