Topic inside:
 
New Federal Cabinet Sworn In - In late November, the Canadian federal cabinet was sworn in at Rideau Hall in Ottawa. The continuity of Minister Marc Garneau at Transport and Minister Bill Morneau at Finance is important to NAFA. The Association will be able to build upon the past advocacy work with these key ministers. Also, most senior political staff in these offices will be maintaining their roles. NAFA will continue fostering and leveraging the key relationships amongst decision-makers as in the past, and hit the ground running with the Minister of Transport, the Minister of Finance, the Minister of Public Safety, and the Minister of Environment under the minority mandate the government has won.
