Dominic LeBlanc Sworn in as New Finance Minister

Dominic LeBlanc, who has been Public Safety Minister at the forefront of issues involving the Canada-U.S. border and the incoming administration of Donald Trump, has been sworn in as the new Finance Minister.Shortly after he was sworn in, Mr. LeBlanc told a news conference outside Rideau Hall that he will remain Intergovernmental Affairs Minister while taking on his new assignment as the third finance minister since Mr. Trudeau led the Liberals to power in 2015. (Bill Morneau and Ms.

Freeland were the others.) The new finance minister also noted that he will assume the role of chair of the Canada-U.S. cabinet committee, and remain focused on border security “It’s an enormous privilege to serve as the finance minister and it’s something I will pour my heart and soul into for as long as I have the job,” Mr. LeBlanc said. Mr. LeBlanc said he will turn his attention to leading the development of a federal budget for release in 2025, and that his key priority in his new ministerial assignment is dealing with affordability issues. He also said he remains committed to working on relations with the United States in his role as intergovernmental affairs minister, and that he will work with the premiers, whom he deemed “essential allies” in dealing with the Donald Trump’s threat to impose 25 per cent tariffs on Canadian goods.Asked if Mr. Trudeau must resign or if he has the legitimacy to remain prime minister, Mr. LeBlanc said Mr. Trudeau remains focused on the work associated with key issues, including public finances and dealing with the administration of Mr. Trump. Mr. LeBlanc declined to address Ms. Freeland’s criticisms of Mr. Trudeau, but said he admires her as a colleague and appreciates her as a friend. “She has a proud record of delivering for Canadians,” he said. “She accomplished a great many things.”
