On May 2, 1985, the people of Ontario created an opportunity for change after 42 years of Conser- vative government. We are determined to accept responsibility for bringing about that change. During the election cam- paign, both the Liberal and New Democratic Parties advanced significant public policy and legislative reform proposals. These proposals contained many elements in common, which are outlined in the attached documents. In the interests of mak- ing minority government work, we are committed to a program of public policy reforms which will im- prove the quality of life for everyone in this province. We are also committed to legislative reforms design- ed to improve public access to and information about the legislative process in Ontario. It will take time to achieve these objectives. We have agreed on the need for a period of stabili- ty during which this pro- gram can proceed. Should the Lieutenant Governor invite the Leader', of the Liberal Party to form a Government, this agree- ment will be for two years from the day that the Leader of the Liberal Par- ty assumes the office of Premier. It is understood that the traditions, practices and precedents of the Ontario Legislature are that in- dividual bills are not con- sidered matters of con- fidence unless so designated by the Government.
