The original capital of Canada was actually Kingston, but in 1857 Queen Victoria selected Ottawa as the new capital city, which was surprising when there were other much larger Canadian cities to choose from. The main airport serving the capital is Macdonald-Cartier International Airport.he population is just under 900,000, which is fairly small compared to the Canadian population of 35 million, but Canada is much bigger than most countries (second only to Russia) so it's not too surprising. However, it is still nearly 1/3 the size of Toronto and so is still comparatively small for a capital city.
