Введение
Второй парламент Онтарио состоялся с 21 марта 1871 года по 23 декабря 1874 года, незадолго до всеобщих выборов 1875 года. Партией большинства была Либеральная партия Онтарио во главе с Эдвардом Блейком; Оливер Моват заменил Блейка на посту премьер-министра в октябре 1872 года. В 1872 году был принят закон, запрещающий члену занимать место в Законодательном собрании, занимая место в парламенте Доминиона, так называемый "двойной мандат". Во втором законодательном собрании было 88 членов. Ричард Уильям Скотт служил спикером ассамблеи, пока 21 декабря 1871 года его не назначили в кабинет министров. Джеймс Джордж Карри сменил Скотта на посту спикера, проработав в должности до своей отставки 29 марта 1873 года. Руперт Мёрс Уэллс затем сменил Керри на посту спикера.
The Second Parliament of Ontario was in session from March 21, 1871, until December 23, 1874, just prior to the 1875 general election. The majority party was the Ontario Liberal Party led by Edward Blake; Oliver Mowat replaced Blake as premier in October 1872. An act was passed in 1872 which prohibited a member from holding a seat in the Legislative Assembly while holding a seat in the Dominion Parliament, a so called "dual mandate". There were 88 members in the second legislature. Richard William Scott served as speaker for the assembly until he was named to cabinet on December 21, 1871. James George Currie succeeded Scott as speaker, serving until his resignation on March 29, 1873. Rupert Mearse Wells then succeeded Currie as speaker.
