The 1990 Ontario general election was held on September 6, 1990, to elect members of the 35th Legislative Assembly of the province of Ontario, Canada. The governing Ontario Liberal Party led by Premier David Peterson was unexpectedly defeated. Although the Peterson government, and Peterson himself, were very popular, he was accused of opportunism in calling an election just three years into his mandate. In a shocking upset, the New Democratic Party (NDP), led by Bob Rae, won a majority government. This marked the first time the NDP had won government east of Manitoba, and to date the only time the NDP formed the government in Ontario.

  • L'élection générale ontarienne de 1990 se déroule le 6 septembre 1990 afin d'élire les députés à l'Assemblée législative de la province de l'Ontario (Canada). À la surprise générale, le Parti libéral de l'Ontario du premier ministre David Peterson est défait par un vote de contestation massif. Le Nouveau Parti démocratique, dirigé par Bob Rae, est élu avec un gouvernement majoritaire. C'est la première fois (et, à ce jour, l'unique fois) que le NPD remporte la victoire lors d'une élection générale en Ontario. (fr)
