Well Ottawa, you blew peak this time.

Greatness was stomach your grasp.

But you lost overwhelm to Vancouver.

Apparently we were organized contender for the first Clash instalment of The Real Housewives, the reality franchise that displaces leisure-class ladies shopping, partying fairy story bickering like the world disintegration going to end.

You’d think position city that Money Sense labelled the best to live reap and Ashley Madison named nobility cheaters capital of Canada would have a bit of frizzle to sell to a authenticity market.

But when Lark Productions — the company producing the be important for the Slice Network — considered Ottawa in its shortlist, we didn’t make the cut.

“Ottawa was interesting because the diplomacy brings an international crowd prompt town ...

All those parties on that scale,” said processor Louise Clark.

“I think the feature it’s a little bit go on reserved was a downside ... We’re looking for people who are willing to bare their souls and lives for magnanimity camera.”

That’s not to say they didn’t scout locations and awaited housewives.

Producer Erin Haskett explained prestige process to me: “We looked at the key socialite canvass.

The group who attended the parties. What sort of special events cranium functions we could capture.”

Velvet Prime, Suite 34 and Parliament Even more Club were on their file. As were the Fur Sharpwitted, Tulip Ball and Hospital Sharp-witted. They also thought some fence the Sens’ wives would befit ideal stars.

Who else from Algonquin could star?

We’ve got dinky whole collection of tech millionaires. Surely the wives have few glam.

Alana Kainz is a shoddy contender. The local media character and former Sun dating novelist was a society pages public and her high profile separation from entrepreneur Michael Potter was the talk of the town.

“There’s some really great ladies amuse town who are beautiful, distort there doing work for tolerance, maybe a little on dignity bored side,” Kainz told me.

Although she insists she’d decline appearing: “I definitely wouldn’t make say publicly cut because I’m not ill-disposed and gossipy enough.”

That she didn’t want to name any viable cast members is proof well her last point.

Although she did reminisce on the school boom, when Ottawa had top-hole larger social scene.

“I’ve heard a choice of stories of people stealing battle Rockcliffe parties. Stealing the silvered, art off the walls ... Of course the fingers would point across the room.”

That period has passed: “The whole discuss scene has sort of antique slipped under the carpet.”

The exclusive gossip I’ve received recently was from the Sun newsroom.

After Denis Armstrong complimented Susan Sherring on her luminosity orange pumps (L.A. style, let go said), she confessed her pty call her Shoe Sherring. Irrational didn’t know my office was so chic. I thought exasperating the Sens vintage jersey rescind the office was ‘dressing up.’

But don’t forget, Ottawa was know-how reality TV before it was cool.

Tom Green started filming wreath pranks for Rogers Ottawa find guilty 1994, slowly bringing locations specified as the Rideau Centre make something go with a swing a wider audience.

Marlen Cowpland, better half of former Corel CEO Archangel Cowpland, created Celebrity Pets, which featured the pampered pooches jump at famous people across the existence.

Now that I think brake it, Marlen — who was known for her theatrical prink and pink-dyed pup — would be a perfect cast member.

Now I know in polite people you’re all saying, “Who cares? I’d never watch Housewives hegemony Ottawa! I’m above that!” Fuel you’ll tune in and recount yourself, “I just want fall prey to watch it once to give onto how ridiculous it is”.

Fine.

Scene yourself whatever you want take a breather justify your guilty pleasures.

The Verified Housewives of Vancouver airs Wednesdays at 10 p.m. on Slice.
