I've lived in Ottawa for 7 months & I've come to one conclusion... (That flew by) It has bad PR. 👑 It's not that there's nothing to do, it's just not marketed well. When I posted my great glebe garage sale haul... so many people were saying they missed it or didn't know it was on I feel like people find out about events after they're over Should I start some sort of Ottawa calendar? 😅

I swear Ottawa has SO much going on… but one thing I hear alllll the time is that people are finding out about it 3 business days after it happened. 🫠 I swear Ottawa is NOT boring, but someone needs to start a calendar for the events & happenings around here. Anyway… should I actually make an Ottawa events calendar because I think I’ve accidentally volunteered myself. 🤣 Feel free to follow me on IG (kiragregory) I’m always reposting event posters and markets that are on in Ottawa. 🤳 #ottawacreator #ottawa #ottawalife #fyp #exploreottawa
