Ottawa is featured in countless Christmas-themed movies and other made-for-TV films but, more often than not, it plays a substitute role for other cities. That's not the case with Geek Girl, a new British-Canadian 10-part television series that made its international debut last night on Netflix. Canadian audiences are able to watch the show on Corus’s streaming service StackTV. Come November, it will also be available on Netflix in Canada.

North & Navy, one of Ottawa’s top restaurants, closed its doors to regular business on Thursday night in order to hold its inaugural dinner for the Parkdale Food Centre (PFC).

You know it’s going to be a memorable night when there’s a dancing unicorn at the preshow mixer for the 5th Annual Capital Music Awards, held Thursday night at the Bronson Centre.

If only breakfast tables were made big enough to seat a family of 360. There were at least that many friends and supporters of BGC Ottawa (formerly Boys and Girls Club of Ottawa) at the Morning Social networking event and fundraiser held at its Taggart Parkes Family Clubhouse on Thursday.
