A plebiscite on the legality of alcoholic beverages was held in Ontario, Canada on January 1, 1894.

An Act of the Legislature specified the form of the question posed:[1] Are you in favour of the immediate prohibition by law, of the importation, manufacture and sale of intoxicating liquors as a beverage.

[3] Anyone who lived in unorganized areas of the Province was unable to participate.

Though the plebiscite passed, the results were non-binding and prohibition would not occur in Ontario until 1916.

[2] Provincial prohibition, though having majority support, would face another roadblock in 1896 when the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council determined that provinces do not have the authority to prohibit the importation of alcohol.
