The ministry replaced the Campbell ministry, when Gordon Campbell stepped down as premier during the 39th Parliament of British Columbia and was replaced as premier by Clark.[1] It maintained power in the 40th Parliament of British Columbia after the 2013 general election. After the 2017 general election resulted in a hung parliament, it attempted to stay in power as a minority government, but fell less than two months later as a result of a successful non-confidence motion on June 29, 2017. It was replaced by the Horgan ministry.[2]
