1987 Ontario election

Updated: May 22, 2021

Following the 1985 election, the NDP backed the Liberal minority government.


The government fell after two years.


The NDP was unable to convince the bulk of voters that it should be given credit for the success of the Liberal government that it had supported. But it did receive more votes and a larger proportion of the vote than it had previously received.


However, due to the inefficiencies of FPTP, the NDP lost six seats.


The party became the Official Opposition for the second time in the party's history.
