Taner- I live in Ottawa, and haven't heard or seen this. I'm at the University, and TA a large class (for those who don't know- The University of Ottawa is quite large- approx 32,000 students). Nothing seems out of the ordinary, and I'm on campus often (too often actually) and haven't heard of anyone being ill from anything other than a cold.
If you are talking about younger children- I don't have much interaction with them here, so have no clue what they may or may not be getting. But of course, children have weaker immune systems, so what may make them really ill can often easily be fought offby a healthy adult.
In fact, I only know of two people who have gotten ill this winter- me and my boyfriend! For myself I only vomitted once and was fine shortly afterwards; my poor boyfriend was sick yesterday, and is still a bit shakey today (but no more nausea or diarrhea). The poor guythrew upyesterday while getting off OCTranspo- I love the guy, but very glad I wasn't there with him at this particular moment!
