How is gay life in Ottawa? I was wondering if Ottawa is a good place to go to study abroad and have an open gay life... I know the best places are Toronto, Vancouver and Montreal, but is Ottawa a good place to go as well? |
While Toronto, Montreal and I believe Vancouver have actually recognized "Gay Villages" Ottawa is lacking that aspect... they've been debating for years on where to build a gay community center... Ottawa's Pride Festival is commonly mocked as being too small, but at least they have one...
Ottawa is home to multiple post-secondary institutions, and spans a range of lifestyles. It has a lower crime rate than Toronto, Vancouver, or Montreal because it's a less concentrated population (Ottawa spans a lot of rural space as well as urban and sub-urban). There's GLBT publications, clubs, groups, and social support available in Ottawa.
You could do worse than Ottawa. If you're looking for somewhere that's not a massive major city but you want access to resources or a community, that's probably your best bet. It's a rather laid back city. |

Is the Royal Oak on Bank Street, Ottawa (near Hartman's) a gay bar? I had a beer there the other day, and noticed that nearly all the other customers were male. I have nothing against alternative lifestyles, I was just embarrassed to be in the wrong bar. |
No, it's not a gay bar at all.
It's in Ottawa's gay-bourhood but not specifically a gay bar, as in, it's not marketed or promoted for the gay community.
I've been there a few times and it's always been a pretty typical straight bar. |

Gay stripping club in Ottawa/Canada? Any gay stripping club in Ottawa (not Swizzles). I want real stripping... |
| The place that use to be Fanny's (next to Atomic / On Tap) is a male strip club now (no idea what it is called). You might also try getting information from one of those stores on Bank St. There seems to be a place that sells gay pornography (at least that is what it looks like based on the signage) -- if anyone would know they would. |
