Regional profile

With the exception of the more conservative rural western and southern parts, the former Region of Ottawa-Carleton which became the new City of Ottawa in 2001, has traditionally been a Liberal heartland. A high proportion of Francophones and civil servants had made ridings such as Ottawa—Vanier among the safest Liberal seats in the country, however, now there are probably only two safe Liberal seats in Ottawa - Ottawa South and Ottawa—Vanier. The NDP's only historical victory in the area, Ottawa Centre in 1984, was repeated in 2004, as their popular former leader Ed Broadbent was elected. The Green Party's best seat in the province also came in Ottawa Centre. The seat was retained in 2006 after Broadbent's retirement, by Paul Dewar (son of former mayor Marion Dewar).

The suburban Ottawa ridings tended to be swing ridings, a trend that was masked until the Canadian Alliance won Carleton-Mississippi Mills (then known as Lanark-Carleton), traditionally the most conservative riding in what was then Ottawa-Carleton. The Conservatives broke through to take another seat in 2004, and two more in 2006. They held them until 2015, when the massive Liberal wave that swept through Ontario resulted in the Conservatives being reduced to only one seat. The Liberals even managed to win Kanata-Carleton, essentially the Ottawa portion of Carleton-Mississippi Mills, with the help of star candidate and retired Air Force officer Karen McCrimmon.
