Regional profile
Midwestern Ontario is primarily a conservative area. Vote splitting allowed the Liberals to win all of the seats here from 1993 to 2000 in their Ontario sweeps, although one seat was lost to the Progressive Conservative Party of Canada (now replaced by the Conservative Party) in a 2003 by-election. The Conservatives picked up four more seats in the 2004 election, another in the 2006 election, and four more in 2008, leaving Guelph as the only Liberal riding in both 2008 and 2011. The Conservatives are weaker in the cities, namely Brantford, Guelph, and the Kitchener-Waterloo area, where there are prominent universities (University of Waterloo, University of Guelph, Wilfred Laurier University) and large student populations.
