    Historique

    The position of Minister of Public Works has its origin in the position of the Commissioner of Public Works, which was established by legislation on January 23, 1869. This same legislation created the Ontario Department of Public Works, over which the Commissioner presided.

    In the early years of the Province, the Commissioner of Public Works also held the position of Commissioner of Agriculture and Arts. This situation continued only until 1874, when a separate Commissioner was established for the Department of Public Works.

    In 1905, legislation was passed changing the title of the Commissioner of Public Works to that of Minister of Public Works.

    The Department of Public Works existed until 1972, when it was renamed the Ministry of Government Services. At this time, the title of the Minister was changed to that of Minister of Government Services.
