[edit] Notes
- ^ Ottenheimer served from 1967 to 1969. It is unclear who, if anyone, was Opposition Leader following Murphy's loss of his seat in the 1966 election or who served once Frank Moores, who did not have a seat until 1971, became Tory leader.[1]
- ^ Rowe defeated Roberts for the Liberal leadership in October 1977 and entered the House via a by-election in December. It is unclear who was Leader of the Opposition in the interim.
- ^ Neary became Opposition Leader after Liberal leader Sterling lost his seat in the 1982 general election. He subsequently became interim party leader as well.
- ^ Simmons was not party leader. He was Opposition Leader between the time that Leo Barry was deposed as Liberal leader and new leader Clyde Wells' acquisition of a seat via a by-election.
