Although the Liberals’ status as governing party remained unchanged, her victory necessitated the planning and execution of a transfer of power within the same party. This paper examines the Wynne transition as informed by15 not-for-attribution interviews with public servants and political figures.

The text examines three such transitions going back to the 1970s, and observes the dislocations, and the initial misunderstandings and mistakes, both in policies and people, and proposes improvements. International comparisons (pp. 49 – 59) explore lessons learned from other Westminster democracies (Canada, Australia and New Zealand), and other tiers of government in the United Kingdom (Scotland, Wales, and the municipal government in London). This piece highlights attempts to improve the transition process in other Westminster democracies. Specifically, how to improve the information flow between the civil service and opposition parties, with the prospect of increased preparedness to support a new government in the event of a transition of power.
