Orléans Ward (Ward 1) is a city ward in the city of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, represented on Ottawa City Council. It was created before the 2000 Election when the area was amalgamated into the city of Ottawa. The ward covers much of the suburban community of Orleans in the east of the city. Previous to that, the ward existed in the Regional Municipality of Ottawa-Carleton Council. It contains the neighbourhoods of , , , , , , , , Queenswood Heights, , Fallingbrook and the eastern part of the neighbourhood (east of Trim Road). Not all of Orleans is in the Orléans Ward, as some of it is in Cumberland Ward and Innes Ward. It covers an area of 25.2 km2 (9.7 sq mi).

When the Ward boundaries changed for the 2006 election, there was only a small change to the ward boundary on Portobello.

It was represented by Bob Monette from 2006 to 2018. He was elected in a by-election when the ward was vacated by Herb Kreling in September 2005. Kreling had held the seat since its inception. Montette won the by-election in January 2006. Monette retired in 2018, and the ward has been represented by Matthew Luloff ever since.

Following the 2020 Ottawa Ward boundary review, the ward's southern boundary will become Innes Road, and the ward will expand eastward to include Cumberland Village, and will lose the neighbourhood.[2] It is proposed that the new name of the ward be Orléans East-Cumberland.[3]
