The city of Ottawa is located directly across the border from the province of Québec, more specifically the city of Gatineau. Therefore, there is a greater percentage of billingual Canadians on both sides of the Ontario-Québec border. Ottawa is also Canada's capital, so many people (especially members of parliament) are required to have a knowledge of both languages.
