2022 Ottawa mayoral election
← 2018 October 24, 2022
 
Candidate Bob Chiarelli Catherine McKenney Mark Sutcliffe
Incumbent Mayor

Jim Watson


The 2022 Ottawa municipal election is scheduled to be held on Monday, October 24, 2022 to elect a mayor, city councillors, and trustees to the English and French public school boards and the English and French Catholic school boards in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.[1] This election will be the first since the 1997 municipal election that an incumbent mayor or its equivalent[a] did not run for re-election. Candidate nominations opened on May 2 and will close on August 19.[2] The election will be held on the same day as elections in every other municipality in Ontario.

Background

The outgoing city council was marred by a split between supporters of Mayor Jim Watson, known by detractors as the "Watson club",[3] who represented mostly suburban wards, and opponents of the mayor's agenda, who mostly represent more urban wards. Some of Watson's more vocal critics on council have included Jeff Leiper, Catherine McKenney, Shawn Menard,[4][5] Carol Anne Meehan[6] and Diane Deans.[7] This divide on council has shown up on a number of key issues during the term, such as a fight over who should chair the transportation committee, the Ottawa Police Services budget, a tax break for a proposed Porsche dealership in Vanier, whether to call for a judicial inquiry into the beleaguered Ottawa light rail system,[8] how to deal with the Freedom Convoy occupation of the downtown core,[7] and a vote on an unpopular addition to the Chateau Laurier.[9]
