The University of Ottawa (uOttawa, Université d'Ottawa, U of O, Ottawa U) supports online and distance learning across numerous faculties and degree types.

uOttawa is a bilingual university in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. It is one of the oldest universities in the country, originally established as the College of Bytown in 1848. Formerly a liberal arts college, it has been teaching pure and applied sciences in both French and English since the 1800s. The university has been conferring Bachelor's degrees since 1872, Master's degrees since 1875, and Doctorates since 1888. Saint Paul University is federated with the university and is also located in the city of Ottawa.

As noted at the university's Teaching and Learning Support Service (TLSS) web site:

The University of Ottawa is currently expanding its list of courses offered completely online. These courses follow the regular timetable of courses at the University and are usually offered within the framework of specific programs.

It is difficult to quantify the number of courses available online at a glance, but there are appears to be a significant offering.
