Cabinet of British Columbia, 1871
The Interim ministry of British Columbia was the combined Cabinet that governed British Columbia from August 17 to November 13, 1871. British Columbia had initially joined Canada as a province on July 20, 1871, but continued to be governed by the previous colonial government until the interim ministry could be set up. The ministry was established to govern the province until the first British Columbia general election could be held in October and November of 1871. Following the election, the members of the first parliament of British Columbia elected John Foster McCreight to be the first premier of British Columbia .
