For many years, the Ontario NDP was the most successful provincial NDP branch outside the national party's western heartland. It had its first breakthrough under its first leader, Donald C. MacDonald in the 1967 provincial election, when the party elected 20 Members of Provincial Parliament (MPPs) to the Ontario Legislative Assembly.
The NDP picked up one seat in a by-election, but lost it in the general election. Two MPPs resigned and their seats were retained in the general election in which the NDP won 10 seats, the same number as in the 2003 election. However the size of the legislature increased in this election from 103 to 107 seats.
