Our Story

What we do best

Content is what we live and breathe, and Ottawa is where we do it. 613 Times is a space created by a group of in-house creatives, writers, and strategists based right here in Ottawa. Our team comes from the worlds of content marketing, social media, journalism, and design. We’ve helped brands grow, voices get heard, and ideas take off.

Company Values


Local isn’t a niche, it’s the point

We tell stories rooted in the 613,
not just sprinkled with it.

Depth over clicks

We’re not chasing algorithms, we’re here for the curious, not the distracted.

No buzzwords, No B.S.

We speak like real people because we’re writing for real people.

We create like we care

If it’s not thoughtful, useful, or worth someone’s time, we don’t hit publish.
