Prime Minister Mark Carney set to unveil new cabinet Tuesday

Prime Minister Mark Carney is set to unveil his new cabinet at a swearing-in ceremony at Rideau Hall on Tuesday.

The Governor General of Canada, Mary Simon, will be presiding over the swearing in ceremony, expecting to begin at 10:30 a.m.

Carney said he is committed to gender parity in his cabinet – a standard established by Liberal predecessor Justin Trudeau when he took office in 2015.

Carney’s first cabinet, which he named shortly after he won the Liberal leadership in March, was smaller than Trudeau’s previous team.

Parliament is slated to meet May 26 and Carney has announced that King Charles will deliver the speech from the throne the next day.
