If you live in Ottawa, please include your street address in your email message to Councillors.

EMAIL: Tell the Mayor, City Councillors and Staff what you think!
Click above to send a preset message to Mayor O'Brien and Ottawa Councillors.  Clicking the above link should open your email program with a form letter that's all ready to go. You just have to then click "send" or whatever you normally do to send a message. It is better if you modify the subject line and change the text of the email to emphasize your own specific concerns. However, it is also important to flood Councillors with as many emails as possible. So please feel free to just send the form letter by clicking above.

Email your own message to all Councillors:
If you prefer to send your own message, that's great. Please cut and paste the following list of Councillors email addresses into the Bcc: line:
