Federal town: Fridays thin after 15:00, and bilingual email does not mean after-hours email. The polite window around Centretown is 08:00–17:00 local. Ottawa still shifts with daylight saving (UTC−5 in January, UTC−4 in July). Midwinter sunsets still arrive before dinner, which makes late Slack feel later than the clock.
