    History

    The Ministry of Citizenship and Immigration succeeded the Ministry of Citizenship, Immigration and International Trade in June of 2016 when the ministry reorganized and the responsibility for international trade matters was transferred to the newly created Ministry of International Trade.

    The Ministry was organized into two main divisions: the Citizenship and Immigration Division, and the Regional and Corporate Services Division. In addition, both the Ontario Women's Directorate and the Ontario Seniors' Secretariat were part of this ministry.

    In January of 2017 the Ontario Seniors' Secretariat and the Ontario Women's Directorate were dissolved and replaced by the Ministry of Seniors Affairs and the Ministry of the Status of Women.

    In June of 2018, the Ministry of Citizenship and Immigration was dissolved and its functions assumed by the Ministry of Children, Community and Social Services.
