在那里呆了一年,虽然活动范围基本集中在学校附近,不过不是很复杂的问题应该可以解答吧。而且我还有个朋友还在那里,相信他不知道的事情还不是很多。不行把你推到他那里

见内其实没有这边意义上的chinatown,但是在somerset从bronson往西有些华人超市。本身这片地方就是downtown了。最大的是九龙和168,东西比这里贵不少,比较典型的例子是,多伦多温哥华蟹卖3.99的时候,168的大石蟹还卖7.99(据我朋友所说)。吃来说,多伦多要比渥太华好很多。渥太华确实不是个很大的城市。但是夏天的时候,那也确实是个漂亮的小城(非华人街所在地区)

I guess I know it so I will answer it for you :). Chinatown in Ottawa is on Somerset street. It is just a couple of minutes of drive from downtown to ChinatownChinatown in Ottawa is very small, just a few blocks long on Somerset street. There are 2 relatively big Chinese Grocery stores there and a bunch of small ones. You can get almost everything you need for daily life. Most of stuff are a little bit expensive than in Toronto, but it is definitely affordable. Other than grocery store, there are barber's place, cake/cookie stores and of course retaraunts. The Chinese restaraunts in Ottawa are pretty bad :).

相信你理解了我头一次到渥太华,看到当时多伦多卖0.29/lb的上海小奶白在渥太华卖1.29的时候的感受。我离开的时候,我的好朋友为我饯行,我们是开到montreal去吃的饭:-)

可能言重了,可能因为那时候比较节约。不过在渥太华680你可以租到one-bed room了。这是去年中的价格,当然不知道现在怎么样

About 6 or maybe more years ago, single bedroom in Toronto mid-town is about 850 per month. That's quite a gap.

don't rent anymore... guess it's not so uncommon to pay a grand for a single? I know seven eleven bay street charged more many years ago... so if you're in a good location, you've got a good deal...btw, nice to hear you talking to me..a while ago, my post to you were mostly ignored... what made you change your mind... :D

其实没关系的。差价并没有那么明显,只是我记住了几个比较显著的例子。渥太华无论从环境还是治安来说都很不错。人也更友好一些。680是离downtown大约40分钟公车的地方,downtown的one-bed room要贵一些。我们学校附近因为供求关系的缘故就要790。我认为你还是会适应的

另外你有车的话,可以搬到hull住,我们同学one-bed room只要400多。不过如果你有工作,税要高一些

Well, I only go to Chinatown once a month. Ottawa is a very nice city. Medium size, safe and beautiful. You are going to love here. I chose Ottawa over Toronto when I started a family and never regret it:)

不用安慰我们了,对我们这样层次的人而言,多伦多比ottawa好太多了,没有什么可比性的.人在一个地方住久了,总会有些感情的.

:) I am not quite sure of which way you want the gov to keep. The rumor is the managers in gov are paid really well. I forgot telling you another benefit in Ottawathat you may have chance to bump with all those TV politician figures on the street, just like ordinary people. I did twice. John Manley himself also mentioned that the day he revealed the fed budget he actually skated to downtown, all by himself :). Amazingly, noone on Canal even recognized him :). I hope you enjoy the life in Ottawa.
