The riding of Kanata—Carleton is situated in the west end of the City of Ottawa and boundaries extend to the Ottawa River in the north and to Golden Line Road in the south.

The west end of the riding is near Arnprior, where the Ottawa River turns southward, and the east side ends at Highway 7, where it abuts the riding of Carleton.

The riding has only existed for a short time and was created from parts of Carleton—Mississippi Mills and Nepean—Carleton as part of the 2012 federal boundaries redistribution.

Incumbent Liberal Karen McCrimmon, who was elected in both 2015 and 2019, is the first MP to represent the current iteration of the riding.

In August 2021, Sudds announced her intentions to run for the riding, replacing McCrimmon who announced she would not be seeking re-election due to health concerns.

More than 20 per cent, of the riding’s residents are immigrants, with large populations coming from China, the U.K. and India, according to the 2016 census.
