Yes Ottawa is a great city but the climate is really bad (even when compared to somewhere as close as Toronto). The end of May/beginning of June and late Sept are usually ok...

I must be one of those aggressive drivers because I can't believe how slowly everyone seems to merge onto the 417 :)

Sigh, tell me about it. I made a comment to my wife the other day about how the person ahead of us actually maintained speed going into an intersection, accelerated in the merge lane, and merged onto the 416 unexpectedly well, impeding neither me (behind him the whole time) or anyone else.

"Ah, soul mates", she said, sighing and shaking her head.

(All three of us complain near ceaselessly about how poorly our neighbours navigate the rounabout we've had nearly a year. The ones who stop in the middle to let in others nearly cause apoplexy.)
