Here's also a couple of Slow Jams too:

Ottawa Celtic Slow Jam
Glebe Comunity Centre, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
http://ca.groups.yahoo.com/group/ottawajam/
Thursdays

Carp Celtic Jam
Village of Carp (just west of Ottawa)
http://www3.sympatico.ca/dr.qwerty/CarpJam
Mondays

For both jams, the tunes are usually played slower than session speed and there are tune books compiled for those who want sheet music.
