Btw, there's an interesting history behind Ottawa's annual Tulip Festival, and it has to do with close ties between Canada and the Netherlands.

During World War II, when the Netherlands was under Nazi occupation, Canada sheltered the Dutch royal family; and when Princess Margaret of the Dutch royal family was born at the Ottawa Civic Hospital in 1943, the government of Canada declared the maternity ward of that hospital to be "extraterritorial," thereby allowing Princess Margaret to be born a citizen of the Netherlands (though actually born in Canada). In gratitude, the Dutch sent 100,000 tulip bulbs to Ottawa...and Ottawa has been blooming beautiful tulips ever since...!
