As one California girl to another, SHOPPING!!! They have a ton of stores we don't have in the states. I always come back from Ottawa with new clothes and not only do I get compliments, but people are bummed when I tell them where the stuff came from.
Byward Market is quite the experience. Go during the day, though; it gets a bit rough at night.
If you want to go to a FUN museum, go to the Museum of Science and Technology. It reminds me a bit of the Tech Museum in San Jose, CA or the Exploratorium in San Francisco.
Boat on the Rideau Canal. I haven't done that yet and I really want to!

things not mentioned above:
Go to Dows Lake and rent a boat, canoe, peddle boat, take a boat tour of the Rideau Canal, Take a beautiful walk along Queen Elizabeth Parkway and smell the flowers. Take the wild rapids ride on the Ottawa River and go behind the Chateau Laurier and look at the old locks. Rent a bike and explore ottawa, we have the greatest bike paths.

Byward market is always fun. But if you want real fun, go two blocks over to the Salvation Army and watch the bums all day long.

If Kunaldevchen's list turns you on - then good luck. I suggest that you head for Niagara on the Lake.
