Car dealer marketing in Ottawa and Gatineau

Ottawa-Gatineau is one market split between two provinces. Buyers cross the bridges for the right vehicle, and many switch between English and French. Your marketing should reach both sides, in both languages, and follow each province's rules. Drive Good, a 100% Canadian agency, works in both.

Frequently asked questions

Can you run ads on both sides of the river?
Yes, with the right version for each side: Ontario all-in pricing for Ottawa, French first for Gatineau.
Can DriveGood AI answer in French and English?
Yes, in the buyer's language.
Do I need a bilingual website?
On the Gatineau side, Quebec law requires a French version of your website (Éducaloi). If you sell on both sides, a bilingual website serves everyone. Keep yours if it already is, or we build one.
