The referendum was brought about by a clause in the Act, which permitted the possible repeal of prohibition by a majority vote. The referendum upheld prohibition, albeit by the narrowest majority of all of Ontario's prohibition referendums; in 1927, prohibition would be repealed with the passing of the '' Liquor Licence Act''. Referendum question #''Are you in favour of the continuance of the Ontario Temperance Act?'' #''Are you in favour of the sale as a beverage of beer and spirituous liquor in sealed packages under government control?''
