The McGuinty ministry was the combined cabinet (formally the Executive Council of Ontario) that governed Ontario from October 23, 2003, to February 11, 2013. It was led by the 24th Premier of Ontario, Dalton McGuinty. The ministry was made up of members of the Ontario Liberal Party, which commanded at first a majority and later a minority in the Legislative Assembly of Ontario.
The ministry replaced the Eves ministry following the 2003 Ontario general election. The ministry governed through all of the 38th and 39th Parliaments of Ontario, as well as just over a year of the 40th Parliament of Ontario; after the Ontario Liberal Party secured only a minority in the 2011 election, McGuinty eventually resigned, and was succeeded as Premier of Ontario by Kathleen Wynne.
