The political leader in Ontario is the Premier. The Premier is appointed by the Lieutenant Governor of Ontario as the person who is, in his judgement, most likely to have the support of the Legislative Assembly of Ontario. This is usually the leader of the party with the most seats at the time of appointment, unless it is clear that a majority of the Members of Provincial Parliament won't support him or her, in which case it would most likely be the leader of the next largest party.
