The 2006 Oakville municipal elections took place on 13 November 2006, to elect a regional government chair, the town mayor, six town and regional councillors, and six town councillors in Oakville, Ontario, Canada.

Oakville elects two councillors from each of six wards to its town council for a total of 13, including the mayor. Each ward elects one of its two councillors to serve also on the 21-member council of the regional government of the Municipality of Halton. The mayor of Oakville is a voting member of both councils. The other members of the Halton Council come from Burlington (7), Milton (3) and Halton Hills (3), plus the directly elected at large Chair of the Region.

In addition, school trustees were elected to the Halton District Public School Board, Halton District Catholic School Board, Conseil scolaire de district du Centre-Sud-Ouest and Conseil scolaire de district catholique Centre-Sud. These elections ran in conjunction with those in all other municipalities across the province of Ontario (see 2006 Ontario municipal elections).

The 2003 mayoral race was a close rematch between incumbent Ann Mulvale and her opponent Rob Burton, a TV executive who had run and narrowly lost[1] to Mulvale in the previous 2003 mayoral election.

After 18 years serving as mayor, Mulvale said that she was "peaceful with the results" and "In 1972, Oakville was strong when I came here and it will be strong long after". Mulvale had been Oakville's first ever female mayor.[2]
