For the younger crowd, schools like Westboro Academy are acing it with impressive scores, while Lisgar Collegiate Institute continues its rep as a brainy heavyweight. And don't get me started on the French immersion and bilingual programs – c'est magnifique!

Ottawa Real Estate: Buy or Rent
Whether to sign on the dotted line or cut a monthly cheque for rent is the big question in Ottawa these days. Buying's got its perks – think planting a garden, painting the walls neon, or getting that dog you've always wanted. But with house prices doing a bit of a climb, your wallet might feel the pinch. Renting can be kinder to your bank account and gives you the freedom to jet off without worrying about a leaky roof. It's all about what fits your life stage and style.

Start with getting your finances straight – yes, that means facing your credit score head-on. Then, it's all about location, location, location.
