Ottawa still has some residual small-town mindset that's largely evaporated in Toronto and Montreal. In the latter, a big-city mindset rules - move quickly and efficiently - otherwise, those cities would grind to a halt.
You can tell the out-of-towners/tourists in big cities. They're the herd standing in the middle of the stairs on the TTC. Stand right, walk left on an escalator is a foreign concept to them. The idea of walking/driving/using transit with a destination in mind and how to most efficiently get around isn't top of their mind.
