The Pattullo ministry was the combined Cabinet (formally the Executive Council of British Columbia) that governed British Columbia from November 15, 1933, to December 9, 1941. It was led by Duff Pattullo, the 22nd premier of British Columbia, and was composed of members of the Liberal Party.
The Pattullo ministry was established following the 1933 election, in which the Liberal Party won a majority government.[1] It governed for the entirety of the 18th Parliament of British Columbia and, after re-election in the 1937 election, the entirety of the 19th Parliament of British Columbia as well.
After the 1941 election, the Liberal Party lost its majority in the Legislature.[2] Pattullo faced calls to form a coalition government with the Conservative Party, including from within his own party, but opted instead to form a minority government.[3] His new cabinet was sworn in on November 14.[4] However, at the party's annual convention on December 3, delegates voted to establish a coalition government. Pattullo then resigned, and the convention elected John Hart, who endorsed a coalition, as leader.[5] The next day, Pattullo announced his resignation as premier, and Hart invited Royal Maitland, the Conservative leader, to join a coalition.[6] The Pattullo ministry was thus disestablished and replaced by the Hart ministry on December 9, 1941.[7]
