The 41th International Carnahan Conference on Security Technology

October 8-11, 2007
Ottawa, Ontario, Canada


Welcome to Ottawa, the Capital of Canada.One of the most beautiful capitals in the world is about an hour's drive from the United States of America border. Ottawa is a leading center for arts, government, medicine, and especially technology, thanks to the likes of Nortel, Corel, Alcatel, Mitel and 500 other high-tech companies. Although it is the fourth largest metropolitan area in Canada, Ottawa retains the charm of a small town. Surrounded by three rivers and enclosed by 42 000 acres of farmlands and wetlands, Ottawa is a feast for the eyes. Tourists love the lush, rolling hills and pristine lakes of Gatineau Park. Visitors can also choose from over 29 excellent museums, including a new War Museum, and over 60 festivals, including the internationally recognized Winterlude and Canadian Tulip Festival. Shopping enthusiasts should take a walk through the Sparks Street Mall and the Rideau Centre or stop by the boutiques along Sussex and Bank Streets. Top it off with visits to places such as the ByWard Market, Parliament Hill, the National Arts Center and Rideau Canal. You'll have a wonderful time at the 41st ICCST in Ottawa, Canada.
