The deadline to file or withdraw a nomination for the office of Mayor, City Councillor and School Board Trustee in the 2022 Municipal Elections is Friday, August 19, 2022, at 2 pm.

Nomination process for candidates
Nomination forms must be filed by the candidate or by an agent acting on the candidate’s behalf, in person, at the City of Ottawa’s Elections Office during the candidate’s scheduled appointment. Candidates or their agents may contact the Elections Office by phone at 613-580-2660 or by email at elections@ottawa.ca to schedule an appointment.

Withdrawal of nomination or change of office
A withdrawal of nomination must be submitted in writing with the original signature of the candidate, and in person by the candidate or their agent, at the Elections Office, by appointment only.

A candidate’s previous nomination is deemed to be withdrawn upon filing nomination forms for a different office.

Candidate nomination certification

Following the close of the nomination period, the City Clerk will examine each nomination that has been filed to ensure it meets the requirements of the Municipal Elections Act, 1996, and if satisfied, will certify the nomination on or before Monday, August 22, 2022. The list of certified candidates will be available on ottawa.ca/vote.
