    Historique

    The Department of Finance for the Province of Canada, was established in 1859, replacing the Office of the Inspector General. The title of Inspector General was also changed at this time to that of Minister of Finance. The earlier titles of Inspector General and Inspector General's Office, however, were still often used after 1859.

    The Department consisted of the Minister of Finance, the Deputy Inspector General, the Audit Branch, and the Customs Branch, headed by the Commissioner of Customs.

    The Department was responsible for presenting several types of reports to the Legislative Assembly, including an annual report on the public accounts and an annual report on estimates of the expenses of the Executive Council.

    With Confederation in 1867, the Department of Finance for the Province of Canada was disbanded, and responsibility for the management of the financial affairs of the new Province of Ontario was passed to the Treasury Department.
