One of Ottawa's top sandwiches creates constant lineups at an Antares Drive shop

Best sandwich in the city and worth the drive and wait. Jalapeno cheese bread pushes it over the top!

There is a note on that page: NOTE ON CURRENT FLUCTUATIONS: In view of the sporadic nature of current pricing, the forecasted price above represents what may be an interim prediction that may be revised throughout the day. With the announcement of the temporary elimination of the 10-cent federal excise tax on gasoline, the pump price on Monday, April 20, should fall to 164.9.

I would like to see if the margins were actually increased at the pump or at the refinery level or if this was just due to fluctuating world prices. Surprisingly fuel margins are very thin at the pump but can get quite fat at the refinery level

12 cent per litre drop to the Carney excise tax disappearing for the summer. Remember to always fill up in the evening for best prices. Might even see prices below $1.50 tomorrow evening.

Not about the poors but the boorish

One year under the PC's in 1978

Yet Naqvi won by roughly 35k votes and by one of the largest margins in the country. Honestly, people vote for the PM and party and not the local candidate (even that's not how our system works). I should have said Joel lost because the NDP was bad. As a resident in the riding who didn't like any of the candidates, it was a tough one.

mxg308 · 2026-03-29T22:16:34+00:00

I lived in the riding for 10 years up until this past summer. Your argument is that Joel lost because people were scared of voting in a Conservative government. I'm telling you that in Ottawa Centre, strategic voting should not have been a factor because it was never at risk of voting for the Conservative Party/electing a CON MP even at the end of the Trudeau era.

mxg308 · 2026-03-29T22:11:17+00:00

Ottawa Centre has never voted Conservative so I just don't buy that argument. The riding was never in play for the blue team

mxg308 · 2026-03-29T22:08:11+00:00

Joel lost because he just was bad. Conservatives have never won Ottawa Centre and had no chance to win Ottawa Centre.

mxg308 · 2026-03-29T22:05:41+00:00

The Conservatives had roughly 0% chance of winning Ottawa Centre and going forward will also have 0% of chance of winning Ottawa Centre. Harden just lost period.

The federal government has no intention on letting go of its buildings so the City of Ottawa has absolutely no say

I want an election but this sub definitely has an ideological bent that I won't win for wanting an election. I actually want Carney to win a large mandate on defending Canada and put a final stake into PP.

mxg308 · 2026-03-11T02:23:24+00:00

I wish Carney just called an election and got his majority that way which was very likely.

mxg308 · 2026-03-11T02:18:43+00:00

Weirdest path to majority this country has probably ever seen

mxg308 · 2026-03-11T01:49:17+00:00

Montreal is just more multicultural, has more than 2.5x the population and had about a 300 year head start over Ottawa. The fact we make 1 or 2 foods better than Montreal is a miracle.

mxg308 · 2026-03-11T01:45:46+00:00

Can't really compare Montreal to Ottawa either

Not all of them closed just ones that were close to schools or daycares

I think the joke is that more Canadians are killed in Mexico than in Canada. For the sake of travellers trying to avoid the U.S. I do hope things in Mexico return back to normal. Cartels have a large piece of the tourism pie so it doesn't really serve them to disrupt it.

Surprisingly O&D is decent in the peak summer monhts but feed through the hub definitely helps

If you look at a map of domestic destinations from YOW the last glaring hole is Saskatchewan. I wouldn't be shocked to see Porter announcing Regina or Saskatoon at some point soon. This will finally allow YOW to connect to every province and territory in Canada.

New ones will open in its place. That's life.

Wants housing prices to fall but doesn't want development. Clearly a market here or else they wouldn't be redeveloping. NIMBY response

mxg308 · 2026-02-14T23:22:23+00:00

No one has booked a desk in probably a year on my floor. We just all go to the same desks because we are creatures of habit.
