7th Parliament of Ontario

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 7th Legislative Assembly of Ontario was in session from June 5, 1890, until May 29, 1894, just prior to the 1894 general election. The majority party was the Ontario Liberal Party led by Oliver Mowat.

Thomas Ballantyne served as speaker for the assembly.[1]

There was a small third-party movement represented in the 7th Parliament: the McCarthyite movement included Liberals and Conservatives who supported the "Equal Rights Party," which was anti-Catholic and anti-French, and involved four members.
