The National Capital Commission welcomed the public behind the scenes at several properties across Ottawa and Gatineau for its annual Open NCC event. CTV's Camille Wilson speaks with CEO Tobi Nussbaum, who says the event gives locals and tourists a chance to learn lesser-known facts about the region's heritage assets. Residents Renee Marcil and Ann Waters explored the city on guided walking and biking tours, stopping at sites like Confederation Park, the newly built Thunderhead 2SLGBTQI+ monument, and ongoing archaeological digs. The day concluded with an after-dark bike ride along the Queen Elizabeth Driveway and Colonel By Drive.
