Chrystia Freeland confirmed as finance minister, Liberals will prorogue Parliament until fall

. Dominic Leblanc replaces Freeland as minister of intergovernmental affairs. In a sign of the times, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau gave Freeland and LeBlanc a congratulatory elbow bump each as they were sworn in, rather than a hug.The National Post has confirmed news first reported by CTV that Trudeau will also ask to prorogue Parliament.

Parliament is currently set to sit once more in August, in a special session, before resuming full sittings in late September. Due to the pandemic, Parliament has sat rarely this year, limited to special sittings to pass emergency legislation. “Regardless, though, of how you play musical chairs, we still have the same corrupt and incompetent prime minister ahead of the same corrupt and chaotic government.”

Why are you so negative about it? Wait and see! Excellent choice! Congratulations to our new minister of finance!👌👏👏👏

Finally! She can put that journalism diploma to good use.

What a joke...even dumber and inept as the last minister

Now I can do everything JT tells me to do with money. Easiest job ever. S-P-E-N-D

Fire one criminal and hire another one! Angry yet canadians! 3rd world status has just been kicked into overdrive... WheresTheMoneyCatherine

She should’ve been confirmed as Prime Minister

Perfect picture of Larry, Curly and Moe

Congrats!

With all the slagging here, not one person has offered a viable alternative. Anyone can stand back and throw darts. If you could do a better job run for office

Grandpa Munster!!!

Freeland is a demented Thatcherite Neoliberal corporate fascist hellbent on privatization. Here's a window into her twisted mind:

freeland is amazing

The liberal government plungers further and further into what can only be described as insanity. She’s totally unqualified

With a trillion dollar debt - and growing - someone with serious qualifications and experience would be a better choice.

What could go wrong with the person who SCREWED UP NAFTA putting us behind Mexico in the deal in charge..?

Or, the end of Canada as we know it!

This meme says it all. Why don’t you just randomly throw a calculator at the wall. It will be as good at managing Canada’s finances.

Disaster

She tanked every business venture in her past, but this time...

Such an embarrassing and sad day for our country.
