1975 Ontario general election

The 1975 Ontario general election was held to choose members of the provincial legislature. The Progressive Conservative Party, led by Premier Bill Davis, sought to maintain its majority government. The Liberal Party, led by Robert Nixon, and the New Democratic Party (NDP), led by Stephen Lewis, also competed. The election resulted in the Progressive Conservatives retaining power with a slightly reduced seat count, allowing Davis to continue as Premier. This election reflected ongoing political stability in Ontario during that period, with the main parties contesting on issues like economic management, public services, and governance.
