OBS

In 1882, the Ontario government established the Bureau of Industry under the Department of Agriculture. In 1900, a Bureau of Labour came into being, and labour affairs were transferred from the Department of Agriculture to Public Works. The bureau was replaced in 1916 by Trades and labour Branch, still under Public Works. In April 1919, Bill 169 brought all labour matters under the new Department of Labour. It was renamed the Ministry of Labour in 1970, when the Department of Labour Act was repealed and replaced by the Ministry of Labour Act
