The ENTIRE History Of Ottawa, Canada (8000+ Years in 62 Minutes)

Описание: The Complete History of Ottawa, Ontario – from 8000 years ago to 2025. This in‑depth history documentary reveals the untold story of Canada’s capital city that most people never hear. Discover how Ottawa evolved from Algonquin homelands along the Kichi Zìbì (Ottawa River), to a violent lumber town called Bytown, to the political centre of Canada shaped by corruption, conflict, and power struggles.

Learn about the Indigenous history of the region, the Ottawa River’s importance as a trade route, Philemon Wright’s settlement, and Lieutenant Colonel John By’s Rideau Canal megaproject that cost many workers their lives. Explore the Shiners’ War, early ethnic tensions in Bytown, Queen Victoria’s decision to choose Ottawa as capital, and the Parliament Hill fires that nearly destroyed the heart of Canadian democracy.

Follow Ottawa through Confederation in 1867, the timber trade boom, industrialization, urban development, and the creation of the modern National Capital Region. See how amalgamation, the tech boom, infrastructure failures, massive floods, the LRT disaster, housing crisis, and the 2022 Freedom Convoy occupation reshaped the city and exposed its deepest challenges.

From Indigenous peoples and colonial expansion to modern protests and policy failures, this is the most complete timeline of Ottawa ever put on YouTube. Perfect for anyone interested in Canadian history, Ottawa history, Ontario, capital cities, Indigenous history, colonialism, and urban development – or anyone who wants the real story behind Canada’s capital, not the sanitized tourist version.
