The Probus Club of Western Ottawa is part of the international organization of Probus Clubs designed to serve the retired and semi-retired community.

Our club meets on the second Tuesday of each month except during July and August.
The morning begins at 9:45 a.m. for  socialization and signing up for activities followed by a speaker. Topics are varied, interesting and stimulating.

Special social events and outings occur throughout the year.

Western Ottawa Probus meets at the Kanata Baptist Church,
465 Hazeldean Road, Kanata

Visitors are welcome!

     At our March meeting, we were both entertained and informed through a dynamic presentation by Dr. Ian Lee on the perils of Canada’s economic decline. Through statistics and charts Dr. Lee showed how Canada has lagged in GDP Growth and capital investment. His presentation also touched on our high corporate tax rate, tariffs, counter tariffs, and even fertility rates. He said that Canada needs to concentrate on the things we are good at, natural resources, energy, and services, not manufactured goods.
