Not even a comparison. Sure they have direct flights to pretty much everywhere, but they are completely insular as far as driving goes. There are no major cities within an easy drive at all. Ottawa has a massive geographical advantage...unfortunately Toronto shares that advantage. I have a feeling Toronto is going to win this sweepstakes regardless of the cost of real estate. They check off all the other boxes.

Ottawa is definitely well positioned geographically. But speaking in those terms exclusively, Atlanta still has an edge IMO. While Ottawa is slightly closer to the east coast corridor of NYC-Washington, Atlanta is relatively close to there as well, and not only that they are close to Florida, the Carolinas, Texas etc.
I think Ottawa would be a MUCH better choice then a city like Atlanta, but I still hold the opinion that geographically, Atlanta holds the edge.
