Notes

  1. There was no designated Leader of the Opposition for the sessions of 1921 and 1922.
  2. From 1925 to 1929, Anderson and Tran were both considered Leaders of the Opposition.
  3. From 1977 to 1978, Malone was the Leader of the Liberal Opposition and Collver was the Leader of the Progressive Conservative Opposition, as their parties had exactly equal representation in the Assembly.
