List of opposition leaders
A cohesive and consistent official opposition first formed when A. G. Blair formed the Liberal party in the early 1880s. Previously oppositions occasionally organized over major issues such as anti-prohibitionists led by John Hamilton Gray in the mid 1850s, and pro-Confederationists under Charles Fisher in 1865-1866.
