Key

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, only one safe Liberal seat remains in Ottawa. The NDP's only historical victory in the area, Ottawa Centre in 1984, was repeated in 2004, as their 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). Beyond the urban core, it becomes much more conservative as the Conservatives hold four seats.
