Ottawa, ON
From BR Bullpen
Ottawa is the capital of Canada, located in eastern Ontario, on the Ottawa River. Hull, QC is now part of the city of Gatineau, QC which lies across the river in the province of Quebec; Ottawa teams would often play Sunday games there in the first decades of the 20th Century, as this was permitted in Quebec but not in Ontario. Ottawa is 120 miles west of Montreal, QC.
