The 1986 Manitoba general election was held on March 18, 1986 to elect Members of the Legislative Assembly of the Province of Manitoba, Canada. It was won by the New Democratic Party, which took 30 seats out of 57. The Progressive Conservative Party won 26 seats and formed the official opposition. The Manitoba Liberal Party, which had not been represented in the previous legislature, won one seat.
1 "Before" refers to standings in the Legislature at dissolution, and not to the results of the previous election. These numbers therefore reflect changes in party standings as a result of by-elections and members crossing the floor.
Lbt: Libertarian Party of Manitoba (The Libertarian Party nominated four candidates in this election. As the party was not officially recognized, they ran as independents. Two of these candidates were Clancy Smith (who was probably the party's leader) and C. Dennis Owens; the other two have not yet been identified.)
Early in 1988, Laurent Desjardins announced his retirement from the legislature. Soon after this, NDP backbencher Jim Walding voted against his party's budget, causing the government to fall.
