Your 1-stop shop for info on Ottawa region's federal candidates

Spanning nearly 80,000 square kilometres, the Ottawa region's 20 ridings cover a wide swath of Canada and are home to well over 2 million people within their combined borders.

In 2019, voters from the region elected 14 Liberals to the House of Commons, with most being politicians with at least one previous election under their belts. Six Conservatives were sent to Parliament Hill, although one now stands as an Independent after being kicked out of caucus.

This year's slate of candidates includes former mayors, an ex-MPP, a public health scientist a former national team bobsledder and multiple sailors, among others.

You can find a complete list of candidates ahead of advance polling and election day in the interactive map above, or in the list below.
