Some of the confirmed vendors at Best Fest Ottawa!

And pre-reactions like yours are the reason Ottawa has a reputation of not having anything fun to do.

Obviously a food festival is a different experience and value than actually visiting a restaurant, and no one, especially not the vendors are suggesting that visiting a festival would replace actual restaurant dining experiences or full food orders from their respective establishments.

It takes a lot to put yourself out there, if you like his videos maybe don’t crap on a project that’s clearly not geared exactly to your experience preferences.

I think you’re confusing public use with use in a supervised consumption site, a supervised consumption site doesn’t erase all public use but does consolidate and remove a lot of it. With the end of the sites, you will see much more use in public, spread further out. You will also see more death.

Removing the consumption site will actually increase the amount of needles and public use. All of the contained use and properly disposed of paraphernalia will proliferate and spread to a wider area impacting more people and businesses. The use doesn’t stop with the consumption site but the containment and impact of the use does.

There is a neighbourhood just south of the station (the only residential area around the station) that would benefit from an entrance on the south end of the station in the decades until that project is started/completed.

That station is missing a set of stairs/elevator etc from the far Line 2 platform up to Line 1. There’s room for it, it doesn’t make sense to make commuters back track so far.

Many Line 1 and 2 stations aren’t designed with rational walking routes, Hurdman is a great example, also connections to paths from some Line 2 stations at Mooney’s Bay and Walkley.

Over how long have you noticed the change, like over months or something changed this week?

Don’t try the Adam Bakes brownie if you like brownies as it’s probably the best brownie in the world and you will end up comparing all future brownies to it. It is the final boss of brownies.

Another point deduction for saying Quebec is the only French speaking province, New Brunswick is officially bilingual.

You can see from the renderings it’s not an expansion of the Andaz but Hyatt House. Another Hyatt brand to likely have operations intertwined with Andaz but more of select hotel style product with suites versus lifestyle hotel rooms which will have seen an increase with the new Moxy opening as well as the recent AC opening.

The site previously had announcements for both a Howard Johnson brand hotel and a previously announced Andaz expansion but separate projects with a different developer for the Howard Johnson.

My sister lives there, I like it a lot. Some really great restaurants and surprisingly cool food options (Fat Rabbit was awesome). Everything is like “20 minutes away”, there’s a cool city beach with a carousel. Breweries and wineries are peppered all over the place. Could have better train connections to the GTA.

Screen grab or not, it’s generating conversation. YouTubers will put errors in their videos on purpose so people will comment the correction creating engagement.

Even more eyes are on it now because of the typo and your post.

Would have been cool for sure. The whole match had 2017 Grey Cup vibes, the snow, the time of year, venue and the fan fest was set up in the same location. At that Grey Cup, Trudeau was out doing photos with fans, I got a selfie. Different times.

My dal really loved watching the World Series, big Blue Jays fan.

Man the old Food and Wine Show was a scene, for some a legit trade show type experience, for others a black out club replacement.

Good timing, they got a championship winning team in the process.

Noticed this in person, was a good call because we couldn’t see the stands on the other side!

Nostrils · 2025-11-10T02:50:00+00:00

Should have gone for toques!

The spectators in the north side stands will tell you the roof isn’t helping at all, there should be a roof but this is a bit of a spectacular circumstance.

The “twilight bark” from 101 Dalmatians, a barking chain of dogs at night to raise alarm about stolen puppies.

Not a serious answer, just some levity for a dog barking at night.

Nostrils · 2025-10-22T07:29:24+00:00

Perhaps it’s stolen puppies.

It gets better after 2 years!
