History
The Ministry of Tourism was created on June 17, 1999 when the Ministry of Economic Development, Trade and Tourism was divided into the Ministry of Tourism and the Ministry of Economic Development and Trade.
The Ministry was divided into the Tourism Division, the Corporate and Field Services Division, and a number of branches that did not form part of a division. It was also responsible for overseeing the Niagara Parks Commission, the Ontario Place Corporation, the Ontario Tourism Marketing Partnership Corporation, the Ottawa Congress Centre, the St. Clair Parkway Commission, and the St. Lawrence Parks Commission.
The ministry ceased to exist on February 8, 2001, when it was merged with the Ministry of Citizenship, Culture and Recreation to form the new Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Recreation.
