Please see the following link which will explain the difference between Federal and Provincial amounts when it comes to using your unused amounts.

Unused Credits

Ontario’s education and tax credits are non-refundable, meaning they cannot create a tax refund.
They can only lower the amount of provincial tax you owe.
If you cannot use all of your education and tax credits, you can transfer them or carry them forward.
After 2017, you can carry forward your unused tuition amounts, but you can’t transfer or claim new amounts.
