American tech workers looking for jobs north of the border find Ottawa, a government town once voted the 'most boring city’ in Canada, more appealing than Toronto. 

US tech workers are more likely to look for employment in Ottawa, than Toronto, regularly named one of the best cities in the world to live, or Kitchener-Waterloo, according to statistics released by job search website Indeed Inc. US tech talent considering migration to Canada are looking for roles as such as database administrators, software engineers, Java developers and cloud engineers, according to Indeed.
