No other changes.
But, while we are at it, lets play the name game for the western extension;
Westboro; Metropole (I don't like the surrounding street names)
Dominion; Westboro
Baseline; Algonquin or Algonquin College

Downtown West: Place de Ville - Sounds fancy in both languages.
Downtown East: I like Confederation but I know the other one would have to change. What about something like
Central or Downtown Station?
Campus: uOttawa, simple, bilingual and understood by its students and alumni. Calling University/Université is an unnecessary amount of letters and presumptuous, considering Carleton University exists in Ottawa, as well.
Train: I think the city should come up with a good name for the stadium and name the station after it.
