From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 23rd Legislative Assembly of Ontario was in session from June 2, 1948 until October 6, 1951, just prior to the 1951 general election. The majority party was the Ontario Progressive Conservative Party led by George Drew.

Drew lost his seat in the election and left provincial politics to become leader of the federal Progressive Conservatives. Thomas Laird Kennedy served as interim leader and premier until Leslie Frost became party leader and premier in May 1949.
