The Ontario Liberal Party held a leadership convention in 1943 to choose a permanent replacement to Mitchell Hepburn who had been forced to resign at the end of 1942. Initially, Hepburn attempted to anoint Gordon Daniel Conant as his permanent successor but the caucus did not accept this and forced a full leadership convention which was won on the first ballot by Harry Nixon.
