Rae and Peterson signed a " Liberal-NDP Accord " in which the NDP agreed to support a Liberal government in office for two years.

The Progressive Conservatives were defeated in a no-confidence motion on June 18, 1985, and Lieutenant-Governor John Black Aird asked Peterson to form a new government.

Later in the same year, Rae argued that the Peterson government should reform the Ontario Human Rights Code to include provisions for group defamation and systematic discrimination.

Rae himself was more confident than in the 1985 and 1987 campaigns, and took a more aggressive stance against the Peterson government.

It did not help that the provincial election campaign was being run in the aftermath of the failed Meech Lake constitutional accord of Brian Mulroney's federal government, with which Peterson had significant media exposure in association with the other first ministers.

Some voters believed that Peterson deserved to be reduced to a minority government, while others believed the NDP should be given a chance to govern.

The Liberal government of David Peterson was unexpectedly defeated by the social democratic Ontario New Democratic Party ( NDP ) in that election, and McGuinty was the only rookie Liberal MPP elected.

However, in 1985, this veritable political dynasty ( termed the Big Blue Machine by observers ) came to an end when the minority government of Davis ' successor, Frank Miller, was defeated in the legislature by an alliance between the Liberal Party of David Peterson and the left-wing New Democratic Party ( NDP ) of Bob Rae after the PCs won a plurality but not a majority of seats in the provincial election.

The Liberals formed a minority government with NDP support, and Peterson was sworn in as premier.

Sticking to their policy status quo, the party was trounced in the 1987 election that gave Peterson a majority government.

The defeat occurred after an accord was reached between the David Peterson Liberals and Bob Rae's New Democratic Party to allow the Liberals to form a minority government for two years with NDP support despite the fact that the Liberals had slightly fewer seats than the Tories.

Some media outlets, such as the conservative Toronto Sun, compared the matter to the King-Byng Affair and accused Aird of partisanship for asking Peterson to form a government rather than dissolving the legislature and calling a new election.

The consensus among constitutional experts, however, is that Aird acted correctly as there had been an election only weeks before the government's defeat in the House, and as it was clear that Peterson had the support in the House to form a government.
