About Ottawa

Stable, services-driven economy with concentrated SMB activity in tech, consulting, and government-adjacent contracting.

What is local to Ottawa

CanadaBuys tells federal buyers to pay within 30 days of the invoice or of receiving the goods, whichever is later, and under its sample contract clause the 30 days start over when a corrected invoice arrives. On federal construction work, the Federal Prompt Payment for Construction Work Act gives the government 28 days to pay a proper invoice and the contractor 7 days to pay its subcontractors. A line of credit carries payroll and materials through those windows.

The federal public service had 111,200 employees on the Ontario side of the National Capital Region on March 31, 2026, out of 146,149 in the whole region. Invest Ottawa counts more than 1,800 tech companies and 88,000 tech workers in the city.
