Overview of your Ottawa tour:

For over a hundred years, Ottawa's streets have been showcasing memorials in homage to our history. Nonetheless, canadian's feelings regarding them have drastically varied along the years. Dissimilar to the static state of the memorials, the meaning attributed to them by the eye of the beholder has shifted. While on certain dates, perhaps there tends be a united sentiment about them, in other times, there is a lot of dissent. This tour will start on scenic Green Island. As well as the memorials, you'll see where the Rideau River falls into the Ottawa River. The memorials on this tour will deal with events that you may not have heard of and things you did not learn at school. They will raise questions about how and when we choose to fight, and how lesser known parts of our past highlight, or question, what we believe and remember. After Green Island, we will walk down Sussex Avenue to see several more memorials. Along the way, we will pass more beautiful sceneries and some of the older buildings in Ottawa.
