    History

    The Milk Industry Board of Ontario was established in 1957 within the Dairy Branch of the Department of Agriculture when the Milk Control Board of Ontario and the Milk Producers Board of Ontario were merged into a single agency. The amalgamation was part of the revision of the Milk Industry Act. The purpose of the new legislation was to streamline the dairy administration within the Department of Agriculture. The Milk Control Board of Ontario, which had administered fluid milk, and the Milk Products Board of Ontario, which had administered milk products under the Milk Industry Act, were replaced under the new legislation by one over-all Board, the Milk Industry Board of Ontario. In 1965 the Milk Act established the Milk Commission of Ontario to replace the Milk Industry Board of Ontario.
