Can Ottawa really be the infidelity capital of Canada?

The capital of Canada has long been called the city that fun forgot. But is it really a hotbed of infidelity?

Earlier this month, hackers broke into Ashley Madison, a dating site for married people who want to cheat on their spouses. "Life is short. Have an affair," reads the homepage. The hackers claim to have stolen the real names and addresses of the site's users, and are threatening to release the information.

Shortly afterwards, Canada's National Post reported that Ottawa boasts 189,810 Ashley Madison accounts. The city itself has a population of 883,000. That's the equivalent of one out of every five residents. Ashley Madison did not respond to the BBC's request for membership statistics.

The contradiction between the capital city's straight-laced reputation and Ashley Madison's numbers is staggering.

"When I tell people I'm a sex therapist from Ottawa, they say, 'People in Ottawa don't have sex,' and I say, 'Oh, you have no idea,'" says Sue McGarvie, founder of The Ottawa Sex Therapy and Libido Clinic.

Remind me again where the capital of Canada is ....
How many liberals per square meter are in the city?
How many lobbyists and how many lawyers are in the city?

If the US Senate is the “World’s Greatest Deliberative Body”, then of course Ottawa can be anything it wants to be! By the way, how many rent-by-the-hour hotels / motels are there there?

Going from the number of members to a conclusion about infidelity is an unwarranted conclusion.

Must be those randy Frenchmen and shameless hussies from Quebec. Quebeckers are wildly over represented in the Canadian central gov’t permanent bureaucracy due to (bullsht) bilingual requirements

Same as America half these Federale Gov’t employed useless eaters spend their days porn surfing which unduly stimulates their nether regions. Surf by day, on the prowl by nite and I’m just talking about the cougars

Everywhere in the Western world where you find politicians you find "progressive" politicians and their equally "progressive" coatholders.This is particularly true in national capitals.

"Progressives" are strongly inclined to be unfaithful...to spouses,among others.

"If it feels good,do it" is a key part of their basic attitude.
