The Ontario Provincial Confederation of Regions Party was a minor political party in Ontario, Canada. It was the provincial branch of the now-defunct Confederation of Regions Party of Canada. The party was founded in 1989, around the time the federal CoR was dissolved, and it remained the last Confederation of Regions Party in Canada until 2025, when it was deregistered.
The CoR survived only in Ontario. However, it was once a national movement whose original raison d'être was to promote the rights of regions other than Ontario and Quebec, it later advocated for regions within Ontario. It has reinvented itself twice: in the 1990s, first in campaigning across mainly rural regions of Ontario with targeted policies, before in the 2000s finding resonance in Northern Ontario and Northeastern Ontario, where it continued to play a minor role in provincial elections.
