A new look Cabinet for Premier Ford’s second mandate includes many familiar faces.
Among PC stalwarts retaining their positions are Peter Bethlenfalvy as Minister of Finance, Steve Clark, Municipal Affairs and Housing, Stephen Lecce, Education, Monte McNaughton, Labour, Caroline Mulroney- Transportation and Francophone Affairs, Greg Rickford- Northern Development and Indigenous Affairs, and Lisa Thompson, Agriculture Food and Rural Affairs.
Other familiar faces repeat in new portfolios and there are 30 representatives at the Cabinet Table in all.
There’s no returning to Cabinet for our local Member of Provincial Parliament, as Premier Ford’s list of key posts for his second term in office doesn’t include John Yakabuski’s name.
Yak served first as Minister of Transportation and then as Minister of Natural Resources and Forestry before being removed in a mid-term shuffle during the Premier’s first mandate.
