Used blazers in Ottawa typically sell for C$28 to C$130 (about $20 to $94). Blazers sell on shoulder fit, which cannot be altered cheaply — so give the shoulder measurement, not just the size, and buyers will actually trust the listing.
Selling a blazer in Ottawa
Ottawa is a government town with stable, well-paid employment and severe winters. Turnover is driven by postings and by the two universities rather than by industry, and the goods that appear are generally well kept.
Public service postings and academic terms both move people on predictable schedules. Winter sports equipment appears in spring and disappears by late autumn, which is a reliable pattern to buy against.
The city is straightforward to drive with plenty of parking, though the river divides the region and crossing it adds real time. Winter is long enough here to be a genuine planning constraint on anything bulky.
Ottawa, in Ontario, has around 1 million people, which means a deep enough buyer pool that most things sell without having to travel far to hand them over. Toronto, Brampton and Hamilton are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Ottawa
Two practical things shape a Canadian sale. Interprovincial shipping costs can exceed the value of a mid-priced item, which is why so much trade here is collection-only. And winter genuinely interrupts handovers in much of the country, so agree a window rather than a fixed day between December and March.

Is it part of a suit?
Say so, and whether the trousers are available. An orphaned suit jacket is worth less than a blazer designed as one.
