“Lansdowne Park is public land. This means it belongs to the citizens of Ottawa and indeed to all Canadians. Developers and city councillors have brushed this fact under the rug, but Lansdowne’s publicness is far from incidental and should be reason for pause.” – from Why Lansdowne should remain public, by Carleton professor Janine Debanné.
My name is Andrea and I live in the Westboro area of Ottawa with my husband Mark and our dog Piper who is kind of a big deal on Instagram. We also have two human offspring: Emma (23) and Sarah (21). During the day I work as a writer at The Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre. I am a longtime Ottawa blogger and I've occupied this little corner of the WWW since 1999. The Fishbowl is my whiteboard, water cooler, and journal, all rolled into one. I'm passionate about healthy living, arts and culture, travel, great gear, good food, and sharing the best of Ottawa. I also love vegetables, photography, gadgets, and great design.
