Dubai is 9 hours ahead of Ottawa

Best overlap: 8:00 AM to 9:00 AM in Ottawa is 5:00 PM to 6:00 PM in Dubai.

For a call that suits both sides, look at 8:00 AM to 9:00 AM in Ottawa / 5:00 PM to 6:00 PM in Dubai. Dubai is 9 hours ahead of Ottawa, so you only get about 1 hour of overlap a day — worth locking in a standing time like 8:00 AM in Ottawa (5:00 PM in Dubai) before it slips. These times hold for most of the year, but Ottawa's daylight saving (which Dubai doesn't use) shifts them by an hour twice annually.
