Prime Minister Carney to announce major cabinet shakeup Tuesday with many new faces going in

Carney to have core group of ministers manage country's biggest issues: sources

Carney names new cabinet | CBC News Special

 

Rosemary Barton, CBC News chief political correspondent, hosts special coverage as Prime Minister Mark Carney's new cabinet is sworn in at Rideau Hall in Ottawa.

Prime Minister Mark Carney will unveil his new cabinet Tuesday after returning his party to power last month — and some major front-bench changes are expected as he looks to remake the Liberals in his image.

An official in the Prime Minister's Office, speaking to CBC News on background, said roughly half of the soon-to-be ministers walking up the driveway to Rideau Hall for the swearing-in ceremony will be new to cabinet.

The government official said the cabinet will be on the smaller side — fewer than 30 full cabinet members — but there will be also be as many as 10 secretaries of state, a long-dormant ministerial designation Carney is reviving.

There will be many new faces around the cabinet table because Carney got a mandate from voters to change up the government, the official said.

Senior Liberal sources tell CBC News that Sean Fraser, a past housing and immigration minister who left federal politics in December before jumping back into the fray, will serve as the justice minister.

Tim Hodgson, a seasoned Toronto-area business executive who was just elected, will serve as the minister of natural resources and energy, replacing Jonathan Wilkinson who will be left out of cabinet. Former Vancouver mayor Gregor Roberston will be Carney's new housing minister, sources said.

Sources also tell CBC News and Radio-Canada that Quebec MPs Joël Lightbound, who was first elected in 2015, and Nathalie Provost, a gun control advocate elected earlier this month, will also be among the people being sworn in Tuesday — but it's unclear if they will be full ministers or secretaries of state.

Newly elected MPs Eleanor Olszewski, who represents Edmonton, and Rebecca Alty from the Northwest Territories are also going in as either ministers or secretaries of state, sources said. New Brunswick MP Wayne Long, who was instrumental in pushing former prime minister Justin Trudeau to resign, is also going in.

Transport Minister Chrystia Freeland and Canadian Culture and Identity Minister Steven Guilbeault will both remain in cabinet in some capacity, sources said.

All told, every province and the North will have either a full cabinet minister or a secretary of state, at a minimum, sources said.

Carney is building a team to take on U.S. President Donald Trump and his tariffs and help prop up a faltering Canadian economy as the country grapples with higher joblessness amid tremendous trade uncertainty.

The prime minister is also dealing with some restlessness in Western Canada as some of the region's leaders, including Alberta Premier Danielle Smith, urge the federal government to be more friendly to their interests, namely fast-tracking natural resource development, after a period of perceived hostility under former prime minister Justin Trudeau.

WATCH | A cabinet to fight U.S. tariffs:

 

Carney's cabinet to focus on fighting U.S. tariffs

 

Prime Minister Mark Carney hopes his new cabinet can make progress quickly on Canada’s many challenges, especially fighting tariffs from the U.S. The cabinet is set to be announced on Tuesday.

Carney and his team have been relatively tight-lipped about what's to come — with the newly elected prime minister only saying he will have an "efficient" and "focused" cabinet, which suggests there will be fewer people in the ministry than there were under Trudeau. Like his predecessor, Carney is promising gender parity around the table.

By comparison, Trudeau's last cabinet had 39 ministers — roughly a quarter of the Liberal caucus — while Carney's interim cabinet, announced shortly after he assumed the party's leadership in March, had just 24.

One of the changes Carney is expected to announce Tuesday is a sort of "tiered" model of cabinet — with senior ministers responsible for big portfolios and then secretaries of state holding more junior roles, sources have told CBC News.

If enacted, this could be another departure from how Trudeau arranged his government because all ministers, whether they were responsible for finance or small regional development agencies, stood on equal footing.

Fewer than 30 full ministers

Carney is expected to go ahead with this change because it would allow for a core group of senior ministers, namely those responsible for major departments, to meet frequently and deal with central government issues — a more nimble arrangement so that the new prime minister could conceivably get things done faster.

The government official said these secretaries of state will be more than just junior ministers, however — they will provide dedicated leadership on key issues and priorities and they will be invited to cabinet and cabinet committee meetings for items related to their responsibilities.

John Manley, a former finance minister and deputy prime minister under Jean Chrétien, said Carney will have to make some "tough decisions" if he wants to both keep cabinet small and add some new faces.

Some of the ministers Carney tapped just a few weeks ago could be out of cabinet. He has more potential names to choose from after voters elected 170 Liberal MPs to Parliament.

"There are some people who are there now who have had seats at the table, who are pretty well known to Canadians, who are not going to make the cut," Manley said in an interview.

"He has to make sure his cabinet presents a very different face than the one that surrounded Justin Trudeau. He's going to need to change those really high-profile positions, the ones that are most seen by Canadians," he said, referencing finance, justice, industry and foreign affairs.

Manley said there may be some hurt feelings and disgruntled ministers after this shuffle, but Carney has the right to shape the cabinet he wants — especially when he brought the party to victory after polls suggested the Liberals were destined for almost certain defeat under Trudeau. 

"If I were him, I wouldn't feel any obligation to reappoint anybody to a role they've barely been in for two months," Manley said. "They're all in Parliament today because Mark Carney was able to turn things around."

Lori Turnbull, a political science professor at Dalhousie University, says there will inevitably be some overlap between the Trudeau and Carney ministries because the former central banker did not have much time to recruit many candidates of his own.

While Carney can bat away Conservative claims that he's "just like Justin," because he just won a solid minority government, Turnbull said Carney will want to refashion the cabinet so that it reflects who he is — a leader who has said he will be laser-focused on the economy.

"I think he will want to put his own people on the front bench. He will want to have some sort of ownership of this cabinet," Turnbull said in an interview with CBC News

Still, Turnbull said it's possible Carney weighs experience and continuity when deciding who will fill which roles.

International Trade Minister Dominic LeBlanc, who has taken a leading role on Canada-U.S. relations and Ottawa's dealings with the provinces as intergovernmental affairs minister, is one person who will likely keep a job in cabinet, Turnbull said, because he has developed connections to the Trump administration at this crucial moment.

• Carney to meet premiers in Saskatchewan June 2 amid tensions with the West

• First Nations leaders want drinking water bill within 100 days of Parliament's return

At least one of the other U.S. specialists, Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly, could also be kept on, Turnbull said, in some capacity.

Turnbull said who is in cabinet may matter less than usual because so much of the focus is on Carney, who has promised to do a lot of the heavy lifting himself as the country's present challenges — trade and economic woes — fall into his wheelhouse.

"I think this is all about Carney. The focus is really on him as opposed to who his ministers are," Turnbull said.

Turnbull said Carney, the experienced businessman, may also take a "CEO-like" approach to governing, with his cabinet ministers serving as something like corporate vice-presidents — lieutenants responsible for their respective portfolios and empowered to make decisions.

"This sort of delegation, if it works well, could lead to big results for the government overall because what he's trying to do, of course, is enormous," she said.

Manley said decentralizing power will almost certainly help get things done faster. He said passing everything through the Prime Minister's Office, as was the standard practice under former prime minister Stephen Harper and then Trudeau, bogged things down.

"That's the way you get things done. You don't tie ministers up in red tape and bureaucracy if you want to see them actually make a difference."

Carney's new ministry, which includes 28 cabinet ministers and 10 secretaries of state from every province and the North, includes some old hands but is largely composed of new faces who have either never sat in cabinet before or were just elected to the House of Commons late last month.

In total, Carney has hand-picked 24 new people — 13 of them just elected — to serve as full cabinet ministers or secretaries of state, a long-dormant ministerial designation Carney is reviving.

Carney is elevating critics of former prime minister Justin Trudeau such as MPs Wayne Long and Joël Lightbound while removing some ministers who served under his predecessor, such as Bill Blair, Jonathan Wilkinson and Ginette Petitpas-Taylor, as he tries to show voters that things are changing in Ottawa on his watch.

Tim Hodgson, a seasoned Toronto-area business executive who also worked with Carney during his tenure at the Bank of Canada, will serve as the minister of natural resources and energy, replacing Wilkinson.

Former Vancouver mayor Gregor Robertson will be Carney's new housing minister. Mandy Gull-Masty, a former Cree grand chief in northern Quebec, is the new Indigenous Services minister while Rebecca Alty, the past mayor of Yellowknife, becomes the Crown-Indigenous relations minister.

Shafqat Ali, of Brampton, Ont., is taking over as president of the Treasury Board. Former journalist Evan Solomon takes on a newly created role as minister of artificial intelligence. Nova Scotia MP Lena Metlege Diab will be the immigration minister.

Champagne, LeBlanc stay put

Still, there is some overlap between the Trudeau and Carney ministries because the former central banker did not have a lot of time to recruit many candidates of his own, given it's been only two months since he won the leadership, was first sworn in and then won a mandate.

Carney also weighed experience and continuity when deciding who will fill some of the more senior roles — but some of these experienced operators are not staying in the jobs they held previously.

François-Philippe Champagne stays on as finance minister, while adding national revenue to his portfolio, a sign the longtime minister has earned the trust of the economically focused Carney.

Dominic LeBlanc retains responsibility for Canada-U.S. trade and Ottawa's dealings with the provinces as intergovernmental affairs minister. He has developed connections to the Trump administration and the premiers at this crucial moment.

But Anita Anand moves to foreign affairs, replacing Mélanie Joly who will be Canada's new industry minister. Gary Anandasangaree is leaving justice — he will be replaced by former minister Sean Fraser in that role — for public safety. David McGuinty has no longer has that portfolio and he goes to national defence.

Steven MacKinnon, an experienced parliamentarian, trades the jobs and families portfolio to become the leader of the government in the House — a crucial role as he's responsible for the legislative agenda and counting votes to get bills through Parliament without a Liberal majority. Patty Hajdu, who has been the Indigenous Services minister for the last four years, picks up where MacKinnon left off at jobs.

Chrystia Freeland, Trudeau's former deputy, will stay on as transport and internal trade minister, a role she got when Carney announced his first interim cabinet in March.

Steven Guilbeault, perhaps best known for his past work in the environment portfolio, will retain responsibility for Canadian identity and culture. Julie Dabrusin, a backbencher who was first elected in 2015 and trounced her NDP opponent in former leader Jack Layton's old riding in the April vote, has been elevated to cabinet and takes over at environment.

Some of the MPs who were promoted to cabinet by Carney just weeks ago in that shuffle, including Arielle Kayabaga, Kody Blois and Ali Ehsassi, have been left out this time.

Toronto-area MP Nathaniel Erskine-Smith, who was put into cabinet by Trudeau in late December after Freeland's shock resignation, also didn't make the cut.

Tiered cabinet model

Carney is going with a sort of tiered model of cabinet — with ministers responsible for bigger portfolios and then secretaries of state holding more junior roles.

This will allow for a core group of ministers, namely those responsible for major departments, to meet frequently and deal with central government issues — a more nimble arrangement so that the new prime minister could conceivably get things done faster.

The secretaries of state will be responsible for some key issues and priorities — Brampton-area MP Ruby Sahota will be focused on combating crime, for example, and B.C. MP and former Royal Canadian Air Force pilot Stephen Fuhr will tackle defence procurement.

Those two and the others will occasionally be invited to cabinet and cabinet committee meetings for items related to their responsibilities.

Carney is building a team to take on U.S. President Donald Trump and his tariffs and help prop up a faltering Canadian economy as the country grapples with higher joblessness amid tremendous trade uncertainty.

Beyond LeBlanc's focus on Canada-U.S. trade and Freeland's mandate to knock down internal trade barriers, Brampton MP Maninder Sidhu will serve as Carney's international trade minister — one of three ministers or secretaries of state from that growing suburb.

The prime minister is also dealing with restlessness in Western Canada as some of the region's leaders, including Alberta Premier Danielle Smith, urge the federal government to be more friendly to their interests, namely fast-tracking natural resource development, after a period of perceived hostility under Trudeau.

Eleanor Olszewski, who just won a seat in central Edmonton, is the sole minister from Alberta and is responsible for emergency management. Saskatchewan doesn't have a full cabinet minister but MP Buckley Belanger will represent that province as the secretary of state with a focus on a rural development.

Central Canada is well-represented in this 28-member cabinet with 11 of the full ministers from Ontario — or 12 of 29 if you include Carney himself — and seven from Quebec.

There are two ministers from B.C. and Nova Scotia and one each from Manitoba, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador and P.E.I.

Prime Minister Carney unveils major cabinet overhaul with two dozen new faces

Carney's ministry includes 24 new people — and 13 of them were just elected

Prime Minister Mark Carney unveiled a major overhaul of his cabinet Tuesday as he looks to remake the Liberals in his image and turn the page on the last government.

Carney's new ministry, which includes 28 cabinet ministers and 10 secretaries of state from every province and the North, includes some old hands but is largely composed of new faces who have either never sat in cabinet before or were just elected to the House of Commons late last month.

In total, Carney has hand-picked 24 new people — 13 of them recently elected — to serve as full cabinet ministers or secretaries of state, a long-dormant ministerial designation Carney is reviving.

Speaking to reporters after the swearing-in ceremony, Carney pitched the cabinet overhaul as a nod to Canadians' desire for change after nearly 10 years under his predecessor, former prime minister Justin Trudeau.

"Our government will deliver its mandate for change with urgency and determination. We're going to deliver on that mandate with a new team, purpose-built for this hinge moment in Canada's history," he said, noting half the ministry is new and will come to the table with "fresh perspectives."

"That's a tremendous amount of change," he said. "Half and half — for me, it's perfect."

FULL SPEECH | Carney pledges stronger economy, says new cabinet built for 'hinge' moment

 

Speaking outside Rideau Hall in Ottawa Tuesday after swearing in 28 ministers and 10 secretaries of state, Prime Minister Mark Carney said his cabinet members are expected to show leadership and bring new ideas in order to accomplish their work.

He said this smaller, "more focused" cabinet will "operate with a commitment to true cabinet government," with ministers empowered to make decisions without going to the Prime Minister's Office for approval at every turn.

Carney said this structure will help the government deliver on its ambitious agenda — which includes, he reiterated today, getting a new trade deal with the U.S., boosting a sluggish economy by dismantling internal trade barriers, pushing through a middle-class tax cut by Canada Day to address affordability concerns, speeding up home construction, reining in crime and building major infrastructure projects of "national significance."

"We've been elected to do a job and we intend to do it quickly and forcefully," Carney said. "We have to address this crisis with the Americans and we have to address the very real challenges with our economy and we will do just that." 

As part of the push to rejuvenate the front bench, Carney is elevating critics of Trudeau such as MPs Wayne Long and Joël Lightbound while removing some ministers who served under his predecessor, such as Bill Blair, Jonathan Wilkinson and Ginette Petitpas-Taylor, as he tries to show voters that things are changing in Ottawa on his watch.

Carney also weighed experience and continuity when deciding who will fill some of the more senior roles — but some of these experienced operators are not staying in the jobs they held previously.

Dominic LeBlanc retains responsibility for Canada-U.S. trade and Ottawa's dealings with the provinces as intergovernmental affairs minister. He has developed connections to the Trump administration and the premiers at this crucial moment.

WATCH | Carney on Joly's new role: 

 

Carney defends moving Joly from foreign affairs portfolio

 

Following the swearing-in ceremony at Rideau Hall Tuesday, Prime Minister Mark Carney defended his decision to shift Mélanie Joly from foreign affairs to industry. He said Joly has a lot of experience to help guide his government's focus on transforming the Canadian economy.

But Anita Anand moves to foreign affairs, replacing Mélanie Joly who will be Canada's new industry minister. Gary Anandasangaree is leaving justice — he will be replaced by former minister Sean Fraser in that role — for public safety. David McGuinty no longer has that portfolio and he goes to national defence.

Steven MacKinnon, an experienced parliamentarian, trades the jobs and families portfolio to become the leader of the government in the House — a crucial role as he's responsible for the legislative agenda and counting votes to get bills through Parliament without a Liberal majority. Patty Hajdu, who has been the Indigenous Services minister for the last four years, picks up where MacKinnon left off at jobs.

Chrystia Freeland, Trudeau's former deputy, will stay on as transport and internal trade minister, a role she got when Carney announced his first interim cabinet in March.

Steven Guilbeault, perhaps best known for his past work in the environment portfolio, will retain responsibility for Canadian identity and culture. Julie Dabrusin, a backbencher who was first elected in 2015 and trounced her NDP opponent in former leader Jack Layton's old riding in the April vote, has been elevated to cabinet and takes over at environment.

Joly told CBC's Power & Politics she had several conversations with Carney and requested the move to industry because she wanted a big economic portfolio and to spend more time in Canada.

"I asked for this position. I wanted to come back home, and go back to my roots. I'm a businesswoman before going into politics and also I was the minister of economic development," she said. "I ran in politics to do big things. And right now the number-one issue for the country is the economy."

Some of the MPs who were promoted to cabinet by Carney just weeks ago in that last shuffle, including Arielle Kayabaga, Kody Blois and Ali Ehsassi, have been left out this time.

Toronto-area MP Nathaniel Erskine-Smith, who was put into cabinet by Trudeau in late December after Freeland's shock resignation, also didn't make the cut.

In a social media post, Erskine-Smith said "it's impossible not to feel disrespected" by being shuffled out of the housing and infrastructure portfolios and cabinet entirely.

"The way it played out doesn't sit right," he said.

Tiered cabinet model

Carney is going with a sort of tiered model of cabinet — with ministers responsible for bigger portfolios and then secretaries of state holding more junior roles.

This will allow for the ministers to meet frequently and deal with central government issues — a more nimble arrangement so that the new prime minister could conceivably get things done faster.

The secretaries of state will be responsible for some key issues and priorities — Brampton-area MP Ruby Sahota will be focused on combating crime, for example, and B.C. MP and former Royal Canadian Air Force pilot Stephen Fuhr will tackle defence procurement.

Carney is building a team to take on U.S. President Donald Trump and his tariffs and help prop up a faltering Canadian economy as the country grapples with higher joblessness amid tremendous trade uncertainty.

Beyond LeBlanc's focus on Canada-U.S. trade and Freeland's mandate to knock down internal trade barriers, Brampton MP Maninder Sidhu will serve as Carney's international trade minister — one of three ministers or secretaries of state from that growing suburb.

WATCH | PM on cabinet representation: 

 

Carney says cabinet represents 'all Canadians, all regions'

 

Prime Minister Mark Carney said he is proud to have cabinet representation from every province and one territory. Speaking from Rideau Hall after his new cabinet was sworn in Tuesday, Carney said it will be Canadians at a future ballot box who will gauge his government's progress on key issues facing Canada today.

The prime minister is also dealing with restlessness in Western Canada as some of the region's leaders, including Alberta Premier Danielle Smith, urge the federal government to be more friendly to their interests, namely fast-tracking natural resource development, after a period of perceived hostility under Trudeau.

Eleanor Olszewski, who just won a seat in central Edmonton, is the sole minister from Alberta and is responsible for emergency management. Saskatchewan doesn't have a full cabinet minister but MP Buckley Belanger will represent that province as the secretary of state with a focus on a rural development.

Central Canada is well-represented in this 28-member cabinet with 11 of the full ministers from Ontario — or 12 of 29 if you include Carney himself — and seven from Quebec.

There are two ministers from B.C. and Nova Scotia and one each from Manitoba, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador and P.E.I.

'More of the same,' says Poilievre

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre said retaining some of the Trudeau-era ministers shows that "it's more of the same when Canada needs real change" and the new additions are "problematic."

He said Robertson was Vancouver's mayor when housing prices spiked, and that Fraser presided over "uncontrolled population growth" when he managed the immigration file.

WATCH | Conservative leader on the new cabinet: 

 

Poilievre asks Liberals to ‘steal’ his ideas on carbon tax, housing and more

 

After Prime Minister Mark Carney unveiled his new cabinet Tuesday, Conservative Party Leader Pierre Poilievre said he will hold the government accountable and invited Carney to ‘steal my ideas’ on carbon tax, inflation, housing, crime, drugs and resource development. Poilievre said the Liberals already ‘lifted a few of those ideas and put them in their platform to get re-elected.’

"If this is the new blood that Mr. Carney is bringing into the cabinet, then, sadly, for Canadians, nothing is going to change and the role of a Conservative Party will be more important than ever," he said.

But Poilievre said his party may be willing to back the Liberals on some things.

"I think it was Lincoln who said, 'I stand with a man when he stands right and I stand against him when he stands wrong,'" Poilievre said. "We'll see what he does."

Carney shows 10 ministers from his first cabinet the door

Experienced ministers Blair, Petitpas Taylor and Wilkinson not returning

Prime Minister Mark Carney's new cabinet has taken shape without 11 of the ministers he brought around the table barely two months ago.

On the outs are former defence minister Bill Blair, former president of the Treasury Board Ginette Petitpas Taylor and former energy and natural resources minister Jonathan Wilkinson.

All of those experienced ministers held numerous posts under former prime minister Justin Trudeau and remained in Carney's first cabinet. 

Three other MPs that Carney only elevated to cabinet on March 14 have been removed: Nova Scotia MP Kody Blois and Ontario MPs Arielle Kayabaga and Ali Ehsassi.

Carney also chose to drop some ministers appointed by Trudeau late last year and had remained in cabinet until now: Winnipeg MP Terry Duguid, Toronto MP Nathaniel Erskine-Smith and Quebec MPs Élisabeth Brière and Rachel Bendayan

And former minister and Ontario MP for Brampton West, Kamal Khera, failed to win her seat in last month's election.

She first joined cabinet as minister of seniors in 2021.

• PM Carney's smaller cabinet is facing pushback from advocacy groups

Trudeau then moved Khera to the role of minister of diversity, inclusion and persons with disabilities in 2023 before Carney shifted her once again, making her health minister.

Here is a deeper look at some of the ministers not returning to cabinet.

Jonathan Wilkinson

Wilkinson was part of the initial push from ministers working to remove President Donald Trump's tariffs last year. (The Canadian Press)

Wilkinson — who was reappointed as minister of energy and natural resources when Carney swore in his first cabinet — was first elected to the B.C. riding of North Vancouver in 2015.

Re-elected in 2019 and 2021, Wilkinson won a fourth term in the redrawn riding of North Vancouver-Capilano last month.

He served as parliamentary secretary to the minister of Environment and Climate Change starting in December 2015, but was soon promoted to cabinet.

In 2018, he was made minister of fisheries, oceans and the Canadian Coast Guard before being made the minister of environment and climate change in 2019. 

He was made minister of natural resources in 2021, and minister of energy and natural resources in 2023. 

In a statement posted on his X account, Wilkinson thanked both Carney and Trudeau, along with the voters who put him into office, for giving him the chance to serve in cabinet.

"Four times you have placed your trust in me to represent your interests and lead with purpose here in the riding but also on the national and international stages," he said. "It has been and remains the privilege of a lifetime."

Tim Hodgson is the new minister of energy and natural resources.

Bill Blair

Blair was first elected as the Ontario MP for Scarborough Southwest in the 2015 federal election, and was re-elected in 2019, 2021 and 2025.

In 2023, Blair, a former police chief, took over the defence portfolio from Anita Anand, after serving as the minister for emergency preparedness from October 2021 until July 2023. 

Before that he sat at the cabinet table, including as minister of public safety and emergency preparedness, and as minister of border security and organized crime reduction. 

He has also served as the president of the King's Privy Council of Canada. 

David McGuinty, the former public safety minister, is the new minister of national defence.

Ginette Petitpas Taylor 

Petitpas Taylor had held several cabinet roles under Trudeau. (Adrian Wyld/The Canadian Press)

Petitpas Taylor won the New Brunswick riding of Moncton-Riverview-Dieppe in 2015, 2019 and 2021. She won her fourth straight election last month in the reconstituted riding of Moncton-Dieppe.

She has been an active committee member in Parliament, chairing the subcommittee on procedure and House affairs.

Shortly after the 2015 election Trudeau made her deputy government whip before elevating her to health minister in August 2017. She was dropped from cabinet the first time in 2019.

Petitpas Taylor returned to cabinet in 2021 and went on to preside over a number of ministries including official languages, veterans affairs and employment, workforce development and official languages. 

Trudeau made Petitpas Taylor president of the Treasury Board in December, a role she kept when Carney unveiled his first cabinet in March. 

Shafqat Ali is the new president of the Treasury Board.

Arielle Kayabaga

Kayabaga served as Carney's Government House Leader — while Parliament wasn't sitting — and is one of the cabinet members being dropped after sitting at the top table for barely two months. 

In a statement posted on X, she said that while she won't be returning to cabinet, she remains "deeply honoured to have had the opportunity to serve as a member" of Carney's team.  

Kayabaga was first elected in the Ontario riding of London West in the 2021 federal election, leaving behind a seat on the London city council to make the jump to Parliament.

Kayabaga came to Canada as an 11-year-old refugee with her mother and siblings after her family fled Burundi during that country's civil war.

She sat on a number of committees including health, citizenship and immigration, science and research and official languages. Kayabaga was made parliamentary secretary to the minister of small business in February 2025 by Trudeau.

Carney elevated her to serve as the Government House Leader and minister of democratic institutions in his March 14 cabinet.

Former labour minister Steven MacKinnon is the new leader of the Government in the House of Commons.

Nathaniel Erskine-Smith

Erskine-Smith developed a reputation as a bit of a maverick MP over the last decade demonstrating that he is unafraid to vote against his Liberal colleagues when he felt his party's legislative offering was out of step with his values. 

First elected to the Toronto riding of Beaches-East York in 2015, and re-elected in 2019 and 2021, Erskine-Smith launched a leadership bid for the Ontario Liberal Party in 2023.

A year after coming in second to Mississauga Mayor Bonnie Crombie, he announced that he would not defend his Beaches-East York seat. 

In December, Trudeau named him as his new housing minister after Nova Scotia MP Sean Fraser announced he, too, would not be running again. 

When Carney announced his March cabinet, Erskine-Smith held onto the housing file. Fraser and Erskine-Smith both changed their minds about running in the 2025 federal election and subsequently won their respective seats. 

Fraser returned to cabinet as the minister of justice and attorney general of Canada. The new housing minister is former Vancouver mayor Gregor Robertson.

Prime Minister Mark Carney overhauled his cabinet Tuesday in the wake of last month's election.

The Liberals increased their seat count to 170, falling just short of a majority. The larger caucus gave the prime minister plenty of fresh faces and veteran MPs to choose from.

Carney seems to have opted to shake things up, adding 24 new faces that previously haven't held cabinet portfolios. Of the 24, 15 are ministers and nine are secretaries of state — a sort of junior cabinet position.

While a majority of Carney's ministers had been part of Justin Trudeau's Liberal caucus, 13 of them are first-time MPs.

Ten former ministers were also dropped from their roles. You can read more about them here.

Here is a look at the new faces joining the Liberal front bench.

Julie Dabrusin

In his first, albeit brief, cabinet, Carney didn't appoint any ministers who had endorsed Chrystia Freeland in the Liberal leadership race — though he did give Freeland herself a spot. 

But in naming Julie Dabrusin minister of environment and climate change, Carney added a cabinet member who had backed one of his leadership rivals.

The representative for Toronto-Danforth gets her first cabinet portfolio after nearly a decade as an MP. In April's vote, Dabrusin trounced her NDP opponent in former leader Jack Layton's old riding.

Previously, Dabrusin had held a few parliamentary secretary positions, including to ministers of environment and natural resources.

Evan Solomon

Evan Solomon was first voted into public office in last month's election. (Spencer Colby/The Canadian Press)

The former broadcaster joins cabinet in his first foray into elected politics. Solomon, who had previously worked for both CBC and CTV, is taking on the new role of minister of artificial intelligence.

Solomon won his first election last month in the riding of Toronto Centre.

In 2015, CBC fired the then host of Power & Politics and The House, following reports he was brokering art deals with people he interviewed as a journalist — including Carney.

More recently, Solomon worked for the Eurasia Group as the publisher for GZERO Media.

Eleanor Olszewski

The newly elected representative for the riding of Edmonton Centre will be Alberta's sole representative at the cabinet table.

Carney tapped Olszewski to be minister of emergency management and community resilience. She will also manage the department known as Prairies Economic Development Canada.

Olszewski ran for the Liberals in 2015 and 2019 in the neighbouring riding of Edmonton Strathcona, but fell short both times. She now joins the Liberal caucus representing the riding previously held by former cabinet minister Randy Boissonnault.

Mandy Gull-Masty

Mandy Gull-Masty, former grand chief of the Grand Council of the Crees, is the new minister of Indigenous services.

The newly elected representative for the Quebec riding of Abitibi-Baie-James-Nunavik-Eeyou is one of three Indigenous MPs on Carney's front bench.

Gull-Masty was first elected to public office in 2014, serving as deputy chief of her home community, the Cree First Nation of Waswanipi, where she held the finance, administration, housing and mining negotiation portfolios, according to the Grand Council of the Crees.

She was elected as the first female Grand Chief of the Cree Nation Government in Quebec in 2021.

Shafqat Ali

Liberal MP for Brampton Centre Shafqat Ali is now the president of the Treasury Board. (Adrian Wyld/The Canadian Press)

The MP for Brampton-Chinguacousy Park enters cabinet for the first time as president of the Treasury Board.

Ali is one of the veteran MPs in Carney's cabinet who has previously not held a portfolio. He has been an MP since 2021, and has been a member of a few House committees.

Unlike some of the other MPs joining cabinet who had been part of caucus before the last election, Ali hadn't held a parliamentary secretary position — sometimes seen as a stepping stone to cabinet.

But Ali has been quite active as a backbencher, joining over a dozen parliamentary groups and associations. He now takes over a role that is largely responsible for overseeing the federal public service.

Ali was one of a number of MPs to have toured the West Bank last year and subsequently raised concerns about Israeli settler violence in the territory.

Tim Hodgson

Businessman Tim Hodgson is a new MP and cabinet member. (Christinne Muschi/The Canadian Press)

Tim Hodgson is new to elected politics, but has some familiarity with government and with the prime minister himself.

The MP for Markham-Thornhill worked with Carney during his tenure at the Bank of Canada, and will now serve as the minister of natural resources and energy.

Hodgson also has private sector experience, most notably in his former role as the CEO of Goldman Sachs Canada.

Joël Lightbound

  Joël Lightbound has been named the minister of public works and procurement. (Adrian Wyld/The Canadian Press)

The representative for the Quebec riding of Louis-Hébert is another MP making the jump to cabinet after nearly a decade on the backbench.

Lightbound was first elected in 2015 and has been a parliamentary secretary to a number of cabinet ministers. Carney has now given Lightbound his own portfolio as the minister of government transformation, public works and procurement.

The veteran MP has not shied away from speaking out against the Liberal government in the past.

Rebecca Chartrand

Rebecca Chartrand, who identifies as Anishinaabe, Inninew, Dakota and Métis from Pine Creek First Nation, is one of three Indigenous members of Carney's cabinet.

The newly elected MP jumps right into a cabinet role after unseating longtime NDP MP Niki Ashton in the northern Manitoba riding of Churchill-Keewatinook Aski. Chartrand was previously the president and CEO of Indigenous Strategy, a management consulting company.

During her campaign, Chartrand promised to advance economic development opportunities in the North, ranging from the railway to the Port of Churchill and the abundance of critical minerals. She takes on the role of minister of northern and Arctic affairs and minister responsible for the Canadian Northern Economic Development Agency.

Rebecca Alty

The new MP for the Northwest Territories is the only territorial member of cabinet, having been sworn in as the minister of Crown-Indigenous relations.

Alty is one of the new MPs jumping right into a cabinet position. She previously served as mayor and city councillor in Yellowknife.

Alty had promised to push for federal funding related to an Indigenous conservation deal in the territory — something she could now potentially have influence over in her cabinet role.

Gregor Robertson

Former Vancouver mayor Gregor Robertson has been named the new housing minister. (Darryl Dyck/Canadian Press)

The former Vancouver mayor will take on a cabinet position after notching his first federal electoral win.

The new MP for Vancouver Fraserview-South Burnaby will be Carney's housing and infrastructure minister. He will also be responsible for Pacific Economic Development Canada.

Robertson was Vancouver's mayor from 2008 to 2018. He also served as a New Democrat B.C. legislative member from 2005 to 2008.

Heath MacDonald

Heath MacDonald will be the cabinet representative from P.E.I., taking on the role of agriculture minister.

The agriculture file had previously been held by Lawrence MacAulay, another Islander and longtime minister who decided not to run this past election.

MacDonald is not a new face in the Liberal caucus — he was first elected in 2021. Though he hasn't previously been a parliamentary secretary, he has previously been the chair of the House public safety committee.

Jill McKnight

    Jill McKnight, middle, was elected in B.C. (Spencer Colby/The Canadian Press)

McKnight is another rookie MP who Carney has immediately put in his cabinet. She will be taking on the role of veteran affairs minister and associate minister of national defence.

A small business owner, McKnight won last month in the B.C. riding of Delta, which included parts of former minister and MP Carla Qualtrough's riding.

Before entering electoral politics, McKnight served as the executive director of the Delta Chamber of Commerce.

Lena Metlege Diab

Liberal Lena Metlege Diab has held her Halifax seat since 2021. (Mark Crosby/CBC)

Like Dabrusin, Diab had endorsed Freeland in the Liberal leadership race. Despite that, Carney named the Nova Scotia MP the new minister of immigration, refugees and citizenship.

Diab was first elected in Halifax West in 2021. Though she hasn't held a parliamentary secretary position, Diab has been the chair of the House justice committee.

The child of Lebanese immigrants, Diab brings provincial cabinet experience to her new job. She had previously been an N.S. MLA and held a number of provincial cabinet positions — including immigration — during her tenure.

Marjorie Michel

Marjorie Michel won former prime minister Justin Trudeau's Montreal riding. (Christinne Muschi/The Canadian Press)

The new minister of health is also a rookie MP. Marjorie Michel won her seat last month in the Montreal riding of Papineau — the same riding that former prime minister Justin Trudeau represented.

Michel is a longtime Liberal organizer. She previously served as Trudeau's deputy chief of staff and worked as the party's director of campaign operations in Quebec during the 2019 and 2021 federal elections.

Michel had initially been tapped to be the Liberal deputy campaign director back in the fall when Trudeau was still party leader.

Maninder Sidhu

Liberal MP for Brampton East Maninder Sidhu was given the international trade file. (Adrian Wyld/The Canadian Press)

An MP since 2019, Sidhu gets his first cabinet role as minister of international trade — likely to be a key portfolio given the ongoing U.S. trade war.

The MP for Brampton East has been a parliamentary secretary for a number of ministers — including his two predecessors, Dominic LeBlanc and Mary Ng.

Sidhu was an early backer of Carney's leadership bid.

Buckley Belanger

Buckley Belanger stepped down from provincial politics to seek a federal nomination for the Liberals. (Matt Duguid/CBC)

A former Saskatchewan Liberal and NDP MLA, Belanger will be the secretary of state for rural development.

Belanger, who is Métis, is one of three Indigenous members of Carney's cabinet. After winning his riding, the newly elected MP said he wanted to convene a series of summits bringing together leaders, artists, land stewards and language keepers to shape a shared vision for the North's future.

Belanger won the Liberals' first seat in Saskatchewan since 2019, and will be the province's sole representative in caucus and at the cabinet table.

Stephen Fuhr

Stephen Fuhr was previously an MP from 2015 to 2019. He won back his seat in last month's election. (Justin Tang/The Canadian Press)

Fuhr was an MP from 2015 to 2019, before losing his B.C. seat to Conservative Tracy Gray. Fuhr was able to take the seat back from Gray in last month's election.

For his second term as an MP, the representative for Kelowna will have a cabinet role — albeit a junior position — serving as the secretary of state for defence procurement.

During his first stint as an MP, Fuhr was chair of the House defence committee. He is the first and only Liberal MP to be elected in B.C.'s interior in the last 50 years.

Anna Gainey

Anna Gainey had previously been the president of the Liberal Party. (Christinne Muschi/The Canadian Press)

Gainey had been an adviser with the Liberal government before making the jump into electoral politics 2023. She won a byelection that year in the Montreal riding of Notre-Dame-de-Grâce-Westmount to replace outgoing MP and former cabinet minister Marc Garneau.

Gainey advised two ministers of national defence and veterans affairs, and is a former president of the Liberal Party.

The Montreal MP will be Carney's secretary of state for children and youth.

Wayne Long

Wayne Long was one of the first MPs to call for Trudeau to resign as Liberal leader. (Jacques Poitras/CBC)

First elected in 2015, Long now gets his first cabinet role. He will be the secretary of state responsible for the Canada Revenue Agency and financial institutions.

Long was one of the more outspoken MPs calling on Trudeau to resign. The New Brunswick MP had initially signalled he wouldn't run again but decided to stay on after Carney won the leadership.

In the past, Long also broke ranks with his party over small business tax changes.

Nathalie Provost

Provost, a survivor of the 1989 Montreal massacre and longtime gun control advocate, is taking on the role of secretary of state for nature.

Provost won her first election last month in the Quebec riding of Châteauguay-Les Jardins-de-Napierville.

Carney would often tout Provost's candidacy during the campaign when emphasizing his party's commitment to firearm regulations. In an embarrassing moment early in the campaign, the Liberal leader mispronounced Provost's name.

Randeep Sarai

Sarai has been an MP since 2015, but this will be his first time at the cabinet table. Carney named the Surrey Centre MP as the secretary of state for international development.

Since his first election, Sarai has been a parliamentary secretary for veterans affairs. He has also been the chair of the House justice committee.

Sarai has found himself in hot water in the past. The MP invited Jaspal Atwal — who was convicted of attempting to assassinate an Indian cabinet minister in 1986 — to a pair of high-level receptions during Trudeau's 2018 trip to India. Sarai apologized and resigned as chair of his party's Pacific caucus. 

Adam van Koeverden

Adam van Koeverden will handle the sport portfolio. (Sean Kilpatrick/The Canadian Press)

The former Olympian turned politician is now the secretary of state for sport.

Van Koeverden was first elected in 2019, unseating longtime Conservative MP and former cabinet minister Lisa Raitt.

He has held a number of parliamentary secretary roles, including for former ministers of sport. But this is his first time at the cabinet table.

Van Koeverden won a gold medal in kayaking at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens.

Stephanie McLean

Stephanie McLean had previously been an Alberta MLA and was a minister in former premier Rachel Notley's government. (Dave Bajer/CBC)

Although she is a former Alberta NDP MLA, Mclean won a seat for the federal Liberals in B.C.

A lawyer by trade, McLean won the riding of Esquimalt-Saanich-Sooke, which had been held by the NDP since 2011.

McLean is now the secretary of state for seniors.

John Zerucelli

John Zerucelli is a new MP and will handle the labour file in cabinet. (Christinne Muschi/The Canadian Press)

Zerucelli is a rookie MP taking on the role of secretary of state for labour.

He was elected in the Toronto riding of Etobicoke North, a seat formerly held by longtime Liberal MP and former cabinet minister Kirsty Duncan.

Although he is a new MP, Toronto Life magazine listed Zerucelli as having worked for the Trudeau PMO in 2016.

Liberal MP Sean Fraser changes mind, will seek re-election

Former cabinet minister announced in December he would not run again

Liberal MP and former cabinet minister Sean Fraser is cancelling his plans to retire from politics and will announce today he will seek re-election in his Nova Scotia riding of Central Nova.

CBC News first reported the news Tuesday morning and Fraser later confirmed it in an interview.

"It's an opportunity to demonstrate to my kids that when there are important fights to have, good people need to stand up to bullies," he said, in reference to the current U.S. administration. 

Fraser said he made the decision Monday after a phone call from Liberal Leader Mark Carney asking him to reconsider. 

Fraser announced in December he wouldn't run again because of the strain the job placed on his family life. But sources say Carney reassured Fraser they would find a way to balance his workload with his family life.

Liberal MP Sean Fraser changes mind, seeks re-election in Nova Scotia

 

Liberal MP and former cabinet minister Sean Fraser confirms he will seek re-election in the riding of Central Nova in Nova Scotia after he decided to step away from politics in December 2024. Fraser said he received a call from Liberal Party Leader Mark Carney about reconsidering to run and said he got assurances from Carney that he will be able to balance family life with work.

Fraser said Carney assured him that if he stayed on he would be able to spend more time with his family.

"We probably spent half an hour on the phone discussing the assurances that we could create a family-friendly environment that would allow me to serve my community without compromising my ability to be a present husband and father," he said.

Fraser and Carney are expected to appear together at an event later today in Nova Scotia where the news will be officially announced.

Asked about the news in Halifax, Carney said Fraser is an "exceptional public servant."

"I and my colleagues have wanted Sean Fraser to come back and serve Canada at this crucial time. Sean stepping up for our country ... is exceptionally good news for Canada," he said.

Fraser stepped down from the federal cabinet in December when he announced he wouldn't run again. He was the federal housing minister until then, and immigration minister before that.

The Liberals nominated a candidate to run in Central Nova last week. The nominee, Graham Murray, was the only Nova Scotia Liberal candidate absent from Carney's appearance in Halifax on Tuesday.

Fraser is not the first high-profile Liberal to change their mind about running in the upcoming election. Cabinet minister Anita Anand had said she would not run again, but changed her mind last month.

New Brunswick MP Wayne Long and Ontario MP Helena Jaczek also said they would not run again, but then reversed course.

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre seized on the news to reiterate his point that a Carney Liberal government would lead to more of the same, and criticized Fraser's record on the immigration and housing files.

"He helped contribute to creating this crisis in the first place. And now Mark Carney and the Liberals say that he should be back," Poilievre told reporters in Vaughan, Ont.

We’re making Pictou West a vibrant place to live and to work.

The Province is collaborating with our federal and municipal counterparts to fund the construction of Market Wharf on the Pictou Waterfront. This infrastructure will be built to resist rising sea levels and storm surges, so that it will serve as an important piece of our community for years to come

Congratulations to Tim Houston on the Nova Scotia Election!

Nov 28

Written By Sean Fraser

 

Congratulations to the Westville Fire Department on their 150th anniversary!

To celebrate the occasion, the department hosted a dinner and awards banquet, which we were happy to support with a financial contribution of $8,000.

In order to commemorate this incredible milestone, we are also supporting the Department’s plan to build an amphitheatre with a contribution of $98,000 that will host events for the community for years to come.

A big thank you to all members of the department, past and present, for your service and dedication to keeping our community safe!

Sean Fraser
