Mark Carney, who was recently elected leader of Liberal Party, will take oath as the 24th Prime Minister of Canada with his cabinet on Friday. He will take over from Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau after winning the first voting on Sunday.
The news agency ANI has shared this information, quoting CTV News report. The office of Canadian Governor General Mary Simon has said that the swearing -in ceremony of the Prime Minister and the members of the Canadian cabinet will take place at 11 am at the Ride Hall Ballroom at 11 am.
On his first day as Liberal leader, Carney met Trudeau at the Prime Minister’s Office and discussed how much period of transition period would be required. According to CTV News report, by the end of the day, Carney said the change would be “uninterrupted” and “quick”.
Since then, Carney has been holding meetings with key officials at Ottawa and other places and has been worked behind the curtain to implement power transfer from both bureaucracy and security.
The report quoted a spokesperson as saying that the Bank of Canada and the former Governor of Bank of England have sold all their assets in a blind trust. Trudeau will meet the Governor General on Friday and will officially resign. Subsequently, Carney will take oath of position and loyalty.
The new Prime Minister of Canada will unveil his new ministry, which will include all members of his cabinet. According to CTV News reports, several leading players handling central departments for tariff management of US President Donald Trump supported Carney during the leadership race.
Carney will take over at a time when the polling of Canada and the US about the growing concerns about the relationship between Canada and the US shows that Conservatives and Liberals are equal to each other. This voting indicates that Trudeau will officially end his term as the Prime Minister of Canada, as his popularity is at a 12 -month highest level.
According to CBC News report, in his final speech as Liberal leader, Justin Trudeau highlighted the ‘achievements’ of the Liberal Party in the last decade, and announced his successor as the leader of his party, looking towards the future.
In his speech at the Liberal Leadership Convention, Trudeau said, “In the last 10 years, I am proud of what we have done for the middle class and hard work to join it.”
Trudeau told the crowd that “It is our responsibility to ensure that Canada remains the best country on Earth! In one of his last speeches as the Liberal leader and Prime Minister of Canada, he urged his supporters to continue the struggle for Canada as much as possible.
He said, “Democracy is not a gift. Freedom is not a gift. Even Canada is not a gift.” He said, “None of these did not happen by chance. None of these can continue without efforts,” CBC News reported.
After resigning from the post of Prime Minister of Canada, Justin Trudeau was seen in a fun manner while exiting Parliament – he was taking out the tongue with a chair.
Bryan Lily, the political columnist of Toronto Sun, wrote in a post on X magazine that according to tradition, Canada MPs are allowed to take their chair with them while exiting Parliament.
“When any MP leaves the Commons, he is allowed to take his chair, his seat with him. I find this a great tradition that I support. Still, this is a strange picture of Trudeau in which he is going with him. Also, perhaps it is another sign of a adjacent choice that he has written on X.
