The passengers disembarked normally. The passenger thought residual fluid from the leak before departure caused the smoke when the brakes got hot during landing.
The Canadian TSB reported smoke became visible during roll out in Quebec, the crew was advise and taxied the aircraft to the gate, where emergency services responded to too. Residual fluid from a brakes leak before departure from Ottawa was identified as source of the smoke. The brakes were cleaned and inspected.
