Canada's Carney unveils economy-focused cabinet amid US trade war

May 14, 2025

Ottawa [Canada], May 14: Prime Minister Mark Carney has unveiled a new team promising "decisive action" on his ambitious economic agenda, amid a trade war with the US and President Donald Trump's repeated remarks undermining Canada's sovereignty.
The new cabinet of 28 ministers and 10 secretaries of state marks some significant changes, including a new foreign minister to handle the currently fraught US-Canada relationship.
Carney says the reshuffle, two weeks after the election, brings a mix of familiar names as well as political newcomers - a team "purpose-built for this hinge moment".
