  Ontario general election, 2007 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Ontario general election of 2007 is scheduled to be held on October 4, 2007 to elect members of the Legislative Assembly of the Province of Ontario, Canada.
By law, Ontario's electoral districts conform with the federal electoral districts, however changes could be made to keep minimum representation in certain areas (e.g., in northern districts).
Under the Representation Act of 1996, "Ontario is divided into electoral districts whose number, names and boundaries are identical to those of its federal electoral districts" which take effect "after the first dissolution of the Legislature" that occurs at least one year after the federal districts were established.

It is our impression that Ontario corn farmers have been careful this spring to ensure that Canadian guidelines for the planting of at least 20 per cent of seeded acreage with non-Bt corn, for "refugia" purposes, have been respected.
Indeed, that party's most notable interest in Ontario agriculture of late was a recent TV clip of leader Alexa McDonough of Nova Scotia holding an apple while suggesting that it was unsafe to eat because of pesticide residues.
