The Ferguson ministry was the combined cabinet (formally the Executive Council of Ontario) that governed Ontario from July 16, 1923, to December 15, 1930. It was led by the 9th Premier of Ontario, Howard Ferguson. The ministry was made up of members of the Conservative Party of Ontario, which commanded a majority of the seats in the Legislative Assembly of Ontario.
The ministry replaced the Drury Ministry following the 1923 Ontario general election. The Ferguson ministry governed through the 16th, 17th, and the beginning of the 18th Parliament of Ontario.
Ferguson resigned in 1930. He was succeeded as Premier of Ontario by George Stewart Henry.
