The 40th Ontario general election, barring the possibilities of a motion of no confidence from Liberal backbenchers, war, or an early dissolution of parliament, will occur on October 6, 2011. It will elect members of the 40th Legislative Assembly of Ontario. The Liberal Party of Ontario formed a majority government in the 2007 election, with the Progressive Conservative Party of Ontario serving as the Official Opposition and the Ontario New Democratic Party serving as a third party.
Under amendments passed by the Legislature in 2004, Ontario elections are now held on fixed dates: the first Thursday of October every four years.
