Ron, you'd enjoy spectating at the House of Commons or a guided tour there I'm sure.
I have done the guided tour at Parliament 4 times now and every time I learn something new.

No, you're right about the ceremonies. But EVEN with George W Bush doing the address, it's hard not to get pumped up. With OBAMA?? I figure I'll be applying to be an American Citizen or signing up to join the military.
More importantly though, it's hilarious to watch the initial bi-partisan standing ovation, then the party select ones throughout.
Ottawa is one place I've never been. The only reason thus far I've found to go would be to see Jimmi Dean and his wife. I guess if I were to ever make the trip, I might be interested in the tour though.
