@showmeottawa: 📦🚧 Another Amazon Fulfilment Centre in Ottawa? 🤔 You’ve probably heard the news — and maybe even the trucks! 🚛 Amazon is building its third fulfilment centre right here in Barrhaven 👷♂️ 📍 Location: 99 Bill Leathem Drive (Ottawa’s south end) 🏗️ Size: 3.1 million sq. ft., multi-level 📅 Completion: Expected in 2026 💼 Impact: Hundreds — maybe thousands — of new jobs 📦 Total Amazon footprint in Ottawa: Nearly 7 million sq. ft. But here’s the thing — Barrhaven already has two Amazon centres down the road, and this latest one is sparking a lot of local debate 👀 Some residents are excited about new jobs and growth, while others are raising concerns about traffic, noise, and the length of construction 🚧 So, what do you think? 🤔 • Will this bring more opportunity or more congestion? • Should the city invest in better roads before adding another hub? • Is Barrhaven ready to become a major logistics centre? Drop your thoughts below! 💬👇 #amazonprime #ottawabusiness #ottawarealestate #canadalife #letsbuild

Barrhaven only has one other fulfillment center. The other one is on the other side of Ottawa past Orleans.

I’m sorry, but as somebody who works just down the road from that supposed new location that’s gonna be finished next year, they finished it years ago, and it’s been open and operating for the last several years. I don’t know why you are in promoting this as something that will be built in the future but if you simply drive down to the 416 at Fallowfield exit, you’ll see the completed building with Amazon trucks that have been pulling up to it for years. 🥺

I think another question is how many of those new jobs will provide enough compensation to own a home or at least rent...I'm not sure if Amazon pays more than minimum

Ottawa is situated perfectly between Canada’s two largest cities. Building more warehouses in Ottawa is a no brainer from a logistical perspective

The new building is sinking. My brother is a contractor on the job. They are looking for a new location.

I pass the construction on the way to work and it looks way too small to be an Amazon building 🤔

Amazon busted unions in Quebec and moved all their distribution centres to Ontario in order to avoid basic decent working conditions. boycott
