The Christy Clark ministry was the combined Cabinet (formally the Executive Council of British Columbia) that governed British Columbia from March 14, 2011, to July 18, 2017. It was led by Christy Clark, the 35th premier of British Columbia, and consisted of members of the British Columbia Liberal Party.

The ministry replaced the Campbell ministry, when Gordon Campbell stepped down as premier during the 39th Parliament of British Columbia and was replaced as premier by Clark. It maintained power in the 40th Parliament of British Columbia after the 2013 general election. After the 2017 general election resulted in a hung parliament, it attempted to stay in power as a minority government, but fell less than two months later as a result of a successful non-confidence motion on June 29, 2017. It was replaced by the Horgan ministry.
