    Ottawa's most exclusive restaurant has only nine regulars (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    If you thought it was hard to get a seat at Yannick La Salle’s restaurant before he was crowned the capital’s culinary king at the 2026 Great Kitchen Party competition, it’ll now be— It was already virtually impossible to get a meal from the chef who will represent Ottawa at the 2027 Canadian Culinary Championship in January. His latest accolade simply makes his duck confit all the more tantalizing and coveted. That’s because La Salle is executive chef at the Supreme Court of Canada, an extremel

    Who's in charge if Ottawa uploads LRT to the province? | Opinion (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    The notion of handing Ottawa’s beleaguered LRT over to the province seems too good to be true, right? I mean, we spent almost as much as NASA did to put a man on the moon, and for what? A transit system that can barely get a man from Orléans to Kanata. OK, I’m exaggerating, but that’s how it feels some days. We spent billions building it, and god-knows-how-much fixing the things that have subsequently gone wrong with it. And now Queen’s Park is offering to take it off our hands? Seriously, how s

    The trial that decided if a man truly outwrestled a bear (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Before an Ottawa jury could decide whether John Szigeti had earned $3,000 by pinning a massive black bear in a wrestling match, his lawyer, Arthur Cogan, had to answer this fundamental question: Does a bear even have shoulders? To understand why the question ever came up in an Ottawa courtroom, let’s back up a couple of years — to July 1966. It was wrestling night in Ottawa — a Wednesday. The ring was set up at the middle of the football field at Lansdowne Park. The main event was a tag-team mat

    You've likely never been inside Snider Park. Here's why | Opinion (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    One of my favourite children’s stories is Oscar Wilde’s The Selfish Giant, which tells of a Giant who builds a high wall around his beautiful garden so the neighbourhood children can’t play in it. Ottawa, it turns out, has had its own inaccessible garden — minus the villain — at Snider Park. For those unfamiliar with it, Snider Park is a beautiful little urban park on Bank Street, between Laurier and Slater. It is cobblestoned and boasts flowers and herbs and fescue, colourful murals, benches, p
