A walking path around Ottawa,
commemorating
the Confederation Poets and
the Mouvement littéraire

 Into the stilly woods I go,
Where the shades are deep and the wind-flowers blow,
And the hours are dreamy and lone and long,
And the power of silence is greater than song.

The Poets’ Pathway Committee is a committee of the Greenspace Alliance of Canada’s Capital. As of January 2007 its co-chairs were Jane Moore and George Wilson.  As of May 2009, Jane became sole chair.

History

When Steven Artelle, then-chair of the Poets' Pathway Committee, initiated the Ottawa Literary Heritage Society in May 2003, the Committee became a joint committee of the Society and the Alliance. In December 2006, Steven resigned as co-chair of the Committee to devote all his energy to the Poet's Hill project. The Poets' Pathway is now again a committee of the Alliance only.
