Testimonials 

My pride in being a member of the Bytown Museum is that this wee gem can look at Ottawa’s past so accurately and can look forward with such vigor and enthusiasm. Two things that I brag about all the time are the audio tapes in SIX languages and the Youth Council. Super initiatives both!”
HELEN MCKEIRNAN, PROUD MEMEMBER SINCE 1999
