The Miller Ministry is the name given to the Executive Council of Ontario under the leadership of Frank Miller, the 19th premier and president of the executive council.

The Executive Council (commonly known as the cabinet) was made up of members of the Ontario Progressive Conservative Party which held first a majority and then a minority of seats in the Legislative Assembly of Ontario. The cabinet was appointed by the Lieutenant Governor of Ontario on the advice of the premier. Members of the council are styled "the Honourable" only for the duration of their membership, not for life.
