I'm sure there is someone elsee in your area going up. |

Looks like I've managed to secure a ride by car with another protester if I go.
How about getting in touch with Anonymous, see if they'd be willing to help protest? They might consider this beneath them, but their concerns are at least peripherally related. |

alphaz ...
By far the most expensive is plane ... there are 11 flights per day each way on Air Canada between Dorval and Ottawa. But the price is over $200 roundtrip. Plus the cost of getting to/from the airports.
Book 1 day in advance and bus is 53 for adult round trip. It's operated by Voyageur for Greyhound who own the route. You can go from Montreal Coach station or from Dorval airport.
Car is about that for driving too right now!
Via rail is nice but it goes from downtown montreal to just outside ottawa centre. The bus is much closer to downtown.
CoachCanada does not serve Ottawa except for "charter" services, for example Queens University service to and from Kingston. |

Bus wants $62... With student discount. Kind of pricey.
Coach Canada doesn't go to Ottawa. At all, apparently.
EDIT: My bad, $42 student fare. Interestingly enough, VIA is cheaper for adult fare ($58) than Greyhound ($69). |
