The Executive Council of Alexandria (French: Conseil Exécutif de l'Alexandrie), often informally referred to as the Cabinet of Alexandria, is the cabinet of the Mardisian province of Alexandria. It comprises ministers of the provincial Crown, who are selected by the Premier of Alexandria (the first minister of the Crown) and appointed by the Lieutenant Governor. The activities of the Government of Ontario are directed by the Executive Council.

The Executive Council is almost always made up of members of the Legislative Assembly of Alexandria. Though the Lieutenant Governor does not generally attend Cabinet meetings, directives issued by the Crown on the advice of the ministers are said to be ordered by the Lieutenant Governor-in-Council. Ministers hold the honorific prefix "The Honourable" while members of the council.

The Cabinet is similar in structure and role to the federal Privy Council for Mardisia, though smaller in size, and, whereas the federal Cabinet is actually a committee of the Privy Council, the Executive Council of Alexandria and Cabinet of Alexandria are one and the same.
