Definitely check out the Byward Market in Ottawa. Great place to walk around and it will be busy from noon to last call. Get croissants at the French Baker on Murray Street. Poutine from any chipwagon. Get a beavertail, I think they have a new type named after Obama.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks the Asian food here (Ottawa) sucks.

And there's like 6 different Pho Bo Ga L.A. in Chinatown now, it's crazy!
Oh yeah? I know there was Pho Bo Ga 1, 2 and 3... and then two Pho Bo Go L.A.s... Ottawa's Chinatown is pretty much a Vietnamtown...

In Montreal, Definitely check out St. Catherines Ave and Crescent street. Great shopping and a lot of Pubs and bars. Great Night life.

I've made a lot of posts about Montreal in the past on this board. Feel free to ask any specific questions. Here's a good thread:
