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.
