      History

      Heritage Trust was formed as part of the Heritage Conservation Division of the Ontario Ministry of Culture and Recreation, in 1975.

      In 1981 the Heritage Conservation Division was abolished, and Heritage Trust became part of the new Arts, Heritage and Libraries Division. This Division and its component branches were transferred to the Ontario Ministry of Citizenship and Culture in 1982. Later in 1982, Heritage Trust became a unit within the newly-created Heritage Branch.

      Heritage Trust ceased to exist in 1986, following a reorganisation of the Heritage Branch.
