		Below the Superior Court is the Ontario Court of Justice (formerly the Provincial Division), the judges of which are appointed by Ontario’s lieutenant governor on the advice of the provincial cabinet.
		Ontario still maintains a universal public health care system and social safety network, although these systems were in a state of transition in the early 21st century.

	1938: Ontario - Archive Article - MSN Encarta
		Both provincial leaders continued their anti-labor activities, and were accused of infringement on civil liberties.
		Although the mayors defeated a resolution which would have given them 'a mandate to take over the provincial government' if steps were not taken to relieve the burden on the cities, the introduction of such a resolution indicated that their patience was very rapidly becoming exhausted.
		Ontario's most renowned citizens — the Dionne Quintuplets — underwent a successful operation for the removal of their tonsils and adenoids in the late fall.

	Britain.tv Wikipedia - Bob Rae
		Rae, a former member of the New Democratic Party (NDP), was the 21st Premier of Ontario from October 1, 1990, to June 28, 1995, and the only leader of the Ontario New Democratic Party to serve in that capacity.
		Cassidy resigned as leader after a poor performance in the 1981 provincial election, and a movement began to draft Rae as his replacement.
		The opposition Liberals were led by the inexperienced David Peterson, and many senior NDP strategists believed their party could surpass the Liberals for second place.

	CNN.com - Ontario Tories call election after energy crisis - Sep. 2, 2003
		Ontario Premier Ernie Eves called an election for Oct. 2 Tuesday, with his conservative government facing an uphill battle to woo voters angry at health and education cuts and the botched deregulation of the province's electricity market.
		Ontario, Canada's economic powerhouse, lagged the United States in getting its power plants back to full operation, prompting the provincial government to impose usage limits that left manufacturers operating at reduced speed.
		Ontario's experiment with electricity market deregulation last year sent the government's popularity into a tailspin as consumer prices soared.

	ESR \| September 13, 2004 \| Tories choose new leader in Ontario
		Ontario is Canada's most populous province, with over ten million people (Canada's population is around 31 million), and is the destination for over half of immigrants to Canada.
		The winner of the upcoming Ontario Progressive Conservative leadership contest will therefore probably be fairly well-positioned to significantly challenge the provincial Liberals in the next election – although it is a number of years away, and the situation could obviously shift repeatedly during that time.
		A Progressive Conservative government in Ontario may also assist the recently reconstituted federal Conservative Party (formed in December 2003 out of the merger of the Canadian Alliance and the "ultra-moderate" federal Progressive Conservatives) in winning a larger share of Ontario seats in the federal Parliament, thereby finally offering a chance of displacing the federal Liberals.

		With the selection of Eves as the PC leader, the NDP hoped that the government's move to the centre in the spring of 2002 would reduce the polarization of the Ontario electorate between the PCs and Liberals and improve the NDP's standing.
		A leaked memo was used by the opposition to accuse the government of threatening public sector workers into not telling the truth at a public inquiry into the government's handling of the SARS crisis.

		If Dalton McGuinty, the leader of the Ontario Liberal Party, becomes premier of Ontario, he is promising to post the names and photographs of "deadbeat parents" on a Web site, and to suspend their driver's licences.
		McGuinty's intention -- if he becomes Premier of Ontario -- to post the names and photographs of "deadbeat parents" on a website, and to suspend driver's permits of "deadbeat parents"; moreover, for all of these measure, the definition of a "deadbeat" parent will be one who has missed two child-support payments.
		The Ontario Court of Appeal has issued a number of recent judgments which are hostile to paternal interests, against the findings of lower court judges who have had the advantage of hearing oral evidence from the parties and determining which parent is more credible.

	Leader of the Opposition opposes - almost
		It seems like only yesterday when the budget was tabled in the House of Commons and Harper was singing its praises (and of course, indirectly, the praises of the Liberals) and referring to the document as a "conservative budget".
		At that time, the leader of the Official Opposition pledged his party’s undying support to ensure that the budget document would pass.
		It is helpful to the opposition that the Inquiry has passed the phase of the politicians taking the witness stand and denying that they knew anything.
