Great price for gasoline- and nowhere to go.
Melissa Marquardt, with the Ottawa Valley Tourist Association, says operators are just spinning their wheels right now.
Three weeks ago there were hopes that the OVTA could sail through the crisis- as nobody has to travel to the Valley by plane.
Now, with the United States having become the current COVID epicentre, the future of domestic toursim is up in the air.
Marquardt says if the SARS outbreak back in 2003 was any indication, recovery will take some considerable time.
