bradm Posted July 12, 2010 Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/07/08/AR2010070805403.htmlOttawa still isn't Toronto or Montreal (nor do I think it wants to be). But it felt lively, smart, quirky and confident: a city waking up to its own potential after many dreary years. In fact, if anything now characterizes the city, I'd say it's an unselfconscious cool. There's a proudly indie aesthetic in its neighborhoods, but without the hipster posturing of Toronto.Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basher Posted July 13, 2010 Report Share Posted July 13, 2010 I think Brad took liberties with the topic title. More like "freelance writer from Montreal printed in Washington Post calls Ottawa 'cool'". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
