註釋
This study of the parliament buildings occupied by the legislatures of the provinces of Upper Canada, Canada, and Ontario describes the political and social developments which provided the historical background for the activities of successive legislatures and legislators of the past 200 years. It begins with the inception of the House of Assembly of Upper Canada at Newark in 1792 and the rest of the Upper Canada period (1797-1841) when the legislature was at York, later called Toronto. It then covers the Union period to 1867, when the legislature was at Kingston, Montreal, Toronto, and Quebec City. Finally, the post-Confederation period (1867 to date) is described, including the history of construction of the present legislative building in Toronto.
