From your timeline, your PPR is around the corner.
How did you confirm that your VO was Ottawa?
I was of the opinion that applications are sent to the local VO's for background checks.
I requested for GCMS note in January, which I received in February. From the note I realised that my file was transferred to VO Ottawa on 29th October. Nothing was done on my application from October 29th till 22nd January when my GCMS note was generated.
I think London VO processes application faster though as people that had similar AOR as mine and were interviewed in London got their PPR since January.
I am not sure if all applications are sent to local VO for background check

Cool stuff, I haven't requested GCMS notes, however I had a personal interview at Canada house 3 weeks ago during which the visa officer made me understand that my file was been processed in London.
There were a range questions but I believe the main reason for the interview was to ascertain whether my work experience aligned with my chosen NOC.
I may also have been chosen randomly for an interview because 2 additional visa officers who were in attendance were been trained by the visa officer conducting my interview.

Were you told when decision will be made with regard to your application.
I know of someone that attended the interview in December and was told he should get a response within a month. I am not sure the exact time he got his PPR but he already has.
Check the link below for details about his interview:

No, the visa officer didn't give me a timeline within which to expect passport request though he hinted that the outcome of the interview was positive.
