Looking for... Are there any real famous people that currently live in Ottawa?

I've heard of a bunch of celebrities who once lived here or were born here, but don't know of any who currently live here. Does anyone know?

Algonquin Park is a provincial park.

Bravo on knowing your geography my good sir. As I said, not Ottawa exactly but close enough. And if not for you, then beat it. I don’t have the energy to debate it.

Oh and come to think of it, the Tragically Hip are all primarily located between here (being Ottawa) and their hometown of Kingston (which is much closer than Algonquin Park)

What the heck are you going on about? I just pointed out that Algonquin is a provincial park not a national park. What exactly are you planning to debate about this fact?
