Mark Carney looks to break with Trudeau era with new cabinet
May 13, 2025
OTTAWA — Prime Minister Mark Carney will try to make a clean break with the past on Tuesday with a cabinet full of fresh faces and a series of new “junior minister” positions.
Carney will assemble a “small, focused” cabinet of less than 30 ministers and up to 10 secretaries of state, said
a source within the Prime Minister’s Office
. It’s one of the ways Carney will try to distance himself from the unpopular tenure of his predecessor, former prime minister Justin Trudeau.
The secretaries of state will be members of the Privy Council and will be responsible for key issues and priorities within a federal department, added the source, but will only be invited to cabinet meetings when decisions associated with their responsibilities arise.
The swearing-in ceremony will begin at 10:30 a.m.
More to come.

There were no balls, pucks, sticks or high-performance shoes for the athletes. Instead, there were desktops, laptops, ergonomic keyboards and very large mouse pads. Inside the computer lab at Vimy Ridge Academy in Edmonton, athletes prepared for the tournament of the year.
