Commitment. Our MCC colleagues in Ottawa treated us to a great introduction to the city, as well as useful meetings with several MP's offices. On our first afternoon of two in Canada's capital, we strolled from our hotel towards the downtown district, crossing this charming canal (In winter, the entire canal freezes over; people ice skate on it and some even ice skate commute to work!) I hadn't known of the famous tradition on the Pont des Arts bridge in Paris, where newlywed couples would fasten locks to the bridge's railings to signify their betrothal. While the weight of the Parisian bridge became too much to support more locks, it looks like couples in Ottawa are just starting up the tradition!
