Mayor before election

Jim Watson

Elected mayor

Mark Sutcliffe

Close

Incumbent Mayor Jim Watson did not run for re-election, citing his age as the reason behind his decision.[3] This election was the first since the 1997 municipal election that an incumbent mayor or its equivalent[a] did not run for re-election. The mayoral election was won by businessman and former journalist Mark Sutcliffe.[4]

Candidate nominations opened on May 2 and closed on August 19.[5] The election was held on the same day as the 2022 Ontario municipal elections.

Background

The outgoing city council was marred by a split between supporters of Mayor Jim Watson, known by detractors as the "Watson club",[6] who represented mostly suburban and rural 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,[7][8] Carol Anne Meehan[9] and Diane Deans.[10] 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,[11] how to deal with the Freedom Convoy occupation of the downtown core,[10] and a vote on an unpopular addition to the Chateau Laurier.[12]

Notes

  1. Key:
    DV – decided voters
    AV – all voters
  2. No margin of error was applied as the results were based on answers from a survey.
  3. Couchman was later removed from the debate after refusing to apologize to Catherine McKenney for a comment made regarding their pronouns.
  4. The debate was cancelled due to Catherine McKenney pulling out as they were summoned to appear before a public inquiry into the Emergencies Act the next day, which they had said they required time to prepare for.
  5. Voters who vote in the special advance voting period can vote across the city and are thus labelled in their own category.
