Title: Important news regarding the Ottawa Amiga Show
Post by: terminator on October 21, 2004, 09:38:59 PM

If you are planning to make the trek, accommodation is at a premium.  Seems two football teams will be playing for the oldest trophy in professional sports that weekend.


For more info on football, see: http://www.greycup2004.com

They have links on accommodations too.

Otherwise, you can try this site:

http://www.ottawa.ca/visitors/visiting/wheretostay_en.shtml

There are links to sites.  Your best bet may be the Bed and Breakfast option.  Being this is the largest city in Canada, there are plenty of them within city limits.

(Available in French also.)
Main city page: http://www.ottawa.ca

Need maps, etc.?  http://www.ottawa.ca/visitors/visiting/gettinghere_en.shtml
The city is 90% rural, so don't be surprised when coming in via Hwy 416.

More Details?  Check:

Watch for more news in the near future

heh? Not even close, unless the Ottawa Amiga show is in Toronto.  :-) But considering it's our capital and as such has a lot of tourism, yeah, there should be lots of hostels/B&B's.

Unfortunately, I won't be able to make it (never have actually).

FYI: Timmins is larger than Toronto.  (AKA the place Shania Twain is from...)

PS: Why are you defending Toronto?

If you want more of a responce. Post the B&B's on your site that have availability.List some of the people coming. I can't be there unfortunatly but maybe some of our products could be there.
Good Luck on the show Guys. I sure you can really show off OS4 really well with the talent you have up there.

I'm not defending anything, but Toronto is the largest city in the country, only Montreal comes close.
