In celebration of Canada’s 150th birthday, the Citizen is rolling out one fact each day for 150 days until July 1, highlighting the odd, the fascinating and the important bits of Ottawa history you might not know about.

It may not be the top of the world, but the top of the city is a point of land about 2.6 kilometres south-southeast of Manion Corners on Old Almonte Road. For GPS geeks, that’s 45.234735 latitude, -76.050751 longitude. Mt. Ottawa, as it’s known by no one, soars 165 metres above sea level.
