I moved from London, Ontario to Ottawa about six years ago and I only met two or three SP that are up to my standard. In London, which has a whole lot smaller population but the SP the quality of the SP is ten time better then Ottawa. Their services are almost like those in Montreal: bbbj is common and kissing is not rare. It's nothing like Ottawa where service sucks and quality of SP is so poor I am more then willing to drive two hours to Montreal.
I don't know why it's so bad in Ottawa but it is. It only takes more then a few times to give the verdict that Ottawa is boredom city, as someone has said before.
