Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau introduced four changes Tuesday to his Cabinet, spurred by retirement of minister of innovation, science and industry Navdeep Bains.
A major change was in the Foreign ministry portfolio, where former Transport Minister Marc Garneau replaced Francois-Philippe Champagne, who moved to head the ministry vacated by Bains.
Trudeau named Member of Parliament Omar Alghabra his new transport minister.
The changes, conducted virtually due to the coronavirus pandemic, come as Trudeau and his ministers prepare for a virtual retreat to discuss the coronavirus pandemic and the relationship with Washington in light of the upcoming inauguration of US President-elect Joe Biden.
