Canada Gets A New Ag Minister In Cabinet Shuffle

Canada has a new Federal Agriculture Minister.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau shuffled his cabinet Friday morning, moving Prince Edward Island M.P., Lawrence MacAulay, to Veterans-Affairs Minister, filling the void left by Jody Wilson-Raybould.

Trudeau appointed Quebec MP, Marie-Claude Bibeau, as Canada's first female Agriculture Minister.

Bibeau was previously the Minister for International Development and was elected as the Member of Parliament for Compton-Stanstead in October of 2015.

Macaulay, a 30-year vet, had served as Ag minister since 2015.
