What is the National Capital of Canada and who chose it?

Toronto, chosen by Prime Minister John A. Macdonald

Montreal, chosen by Queen Elizabeth II

Ottawa, chosen by Queen Victoria

Queen Victoria chose Ottawa as the National Capital of Canada. The other options are incorrect because they are not the National Capital and the individuals mentioned did not choose Ottawa as the capital. Toronto was considered the capital by some Canadians, but it was not officially selected by the government. Montreal was once Canada's largest city and was briefly considered as a potential capital in the 1830s, but Queen Victoria ultimately chose Ottawa. Similarly, Vancouver was never considered as the National Capital and was not chosen by the Canadian Parliament.
