On a chilly Thanksgiving weekend Sunday, the Ottawa Farmers’ Market bustled with people. Shoppers cradled cups of steaming apple cider as they wandered past stalls laden with autumn’s bounty. A busker sang Beatles tunes over the chatter of background conversations.That weekend liveliness is what the city and Ottawa Sports and Entertainment Group hope the new plan for Lansdowne 2.0 will bring seven days a week.
“My only concern is for the market,” said Ann Marie Rochon, president of the Ottawa Farmers’ Market Association. Old Ottawa South resident Linda Thom was one of the shoppers at Sunday’s market. Thom, who won a gold medal in pistol shooting at the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics, was skeptical about the city subsidizing a sport teams.
Ottawa dad Guy Georgeson browsed through the market while his son’s team played baseball nearby. He’s a regular visitor at Lansdowne.“It seems like some things work — this obviously works,” Georgeson said, gesturing toward the market stalls, “but then there are some things that just don’t work at all. It’s dead here, if there’s not a game going on or it’s not market day.“There has to be oversight obviously. We don’t need another LRT debacle. Ottawans are pretty fed up with that.
