The2018 Ontario general election was held on June 7, 2018, to elect the 124 members of the42nd Parliament of Ontario .[ 2] Progressive Conservative Party of Ontario , led byDoug Ford , won 76 of the 124 seats in the legislature and formed a majority government. TheOntario New Democratic Party , led byAndrea Horwath , formed the Official Opposition. TheOntario Liberal Party , led by incumbent PremierKathleen Wynne , lostofficial party status in recording both the worst result in the party's 161-year history and the worst result for any incumbent governing party inOntario . TheGreen Party of Ontario won a seat for the first time in their history, while theTrillium Party of Ontario lost its single seat gained by afloor-crossing during the41st Parliament .
Redistribution of seats [ edit ] TheElectoral Boundaries Act, 2015 [ 3] 2013 Representation Order for Ontario, while preserving the special boundaries of the 11 seats inNorthern Ontario set out in the 1996 redistribution.
The Far North Electoral Boundaries Commission, appointed in 2016,[ 4] Kiiwetinoong andMushkegowuk—James Bay , carved out from the existingKenora—Rainy River andTimmins—James Bay ridings, which accordingly raised the total number of seats to 124.[ 5] [ 6] Representation Statute Law Amendment Act, 2017 .[ 7]
The new districts have been criticized as undemocratic, as they have a population of around 30,000 people compared with over 120,000 people in some southern Ontario constituencies.National Post Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms .[ 8]
In September 2017, a research firm analyzed the impact of redistribution if the boundaries had been in effect for the previous election.[ 9]
Change of fixed election date [ edit ] Under legislation passed in 2005, Ontario elections were to be held on "the first Thursday in October in the fourth calendar year following polling day in the most recent general election", subject to theLieutenant-Governor of Ontario 's power to call an election earlier.[ 10] majority , the passage of anon-confidence motion was not a likely option for calling an early election, though PremierKathleen Wynne stated in June 2015 that she would likely advise to dissolve the Legislature in spring 2018 rather than in October of that year in order to avoid any conflict with municipal elections and take advantage of better weather and longer days.[ 11]
To put this on a statutory footing, in October 2016Attorney General of Ontario Yasir Naqvi introduced a bill in the Legislative Assembly which, in part, included moving the election date to "the first Thursday in June in the fourth calendar year following polling day in the most recent general election",[ 2] [ 12]
Prelude to campaign [ edit ] TheOntario Liberal Party attempted to win their fifth consecutive general election, dating back to2003 . TheProgressive Conservative Party of Ontario won their first election since1999 , and theOntario New Democratic Party attempted to win their second election (having previously won in1990 ). Numerous other extra-parliamentary political parties also vied for votes.
The Liberals underKathleen Wynne headed into the 2018 campaign trailing far behind the Progressive Conservatives, led by formerToronto City Councillor Doug Ford . The Liberals' standing with voters had been badly hurt when they partially privatized Hydro One in 2015, after campaigning against it in the 2014 election, as well as rising criticism over "ballooning provincial debt, high electricity prices and costly, politically expedient decisions".[ 13] [ 14] [ 15] [ 16]
According to Wynne, voters were offered a "stark choice", between "cutting and removing supports from people" with "billions in cuts", which she alleged the Progressive Conservatives would do if they won the election, and expanding investments in social programs such asprescription drugs andchildcare , which the Liberal platform promised.[ 17]
In March 2018, the Liberals tabled a pre-election budget in the provincial legislature which promised billions of dollars in new spending for free childcare and expanded coverage fordental care but replaced the government's previousbalanced budget with a $6.7 billiondeficit projected to last until 2024–2025.[ 18] [ 19]
According toToronto Star Susan Delacourt , voters were motivated by a desire for change—such desire being more driven by emotion than by ideology—and one researcher estimated that more than half of the electorate was undecided in who they were likely to vote for.[ 20] Huffington Post [ 21]
In February 2018, Campaign Research conducted agap analysis on voter intentions in Ontario, and determined the following:
Voter gap analysis by party (February 2018)[ 22] Liberal PC NDP Highlights PCs had the lowest proportion of respondents (51%) not willing to vote for them at all, while the Liberals had the highest such proportion (64%) At 13%, the Liberals' "hard support" was only half that for the PCs For PCs, the strength of "hard support" increases with age, and older demographics tend to be more reliable voters Conversely, such support for the Liberals and NDP significantly declines with age, with almost ¾ of those aged 55+ not willing to vote for them at all = Not voting for party; not considered = Not voting for party; shared consideration = Not voting for party; exclusive consideration = Will vote for party; others considered = Will vote for party; no others considered
