This series documents the Right Honourable Jean Chrétien's activities when he was Leader of the Official Opposition Liberals (formal title: Leader of Her Majesty's Loyal Opposition / l'Opposition Loyale de Sa Majesté), a position he held during the second mandate of the Progressive Conservative government of the Right Honourable Brian Mulroney. More specifically, Jean Chrétien, who succeeded the Right Honourable John Turner as Liberal Party leader on June 23, 1990, held this position from December 21, 1990, until the general election of October 25, 1993 (which the Liberal Party of Canada won). Jean Chrétien was officially sworn in as Prime Minister on November 4, 1993.

The Leader of the Opposition series is divided into four (4) sub-series: Leader of the Opposition Correspondence, Chief of Staff of the Leader of the Opposition, Principal Secretary to the Leader of the Opposition, and Recordings of the Leader of the Opposition.
