Speaking about her commitment to the new role, Kamal Khera said "As a nurse, my top priority is to always be there to support my patients and that’s the same mentality I’ll bring every day to the role of Minister of Health. Extremely grateful for the confidence of PM Carney. Now, it’s time to roll up our sleeves and get to work."

Negativity won’t win a trade war. We’re united and strong and we will immediately get to work, to build the Canada and the Canadian economy of tomorrow.”
Canada got its new PM in Mark Carney who was sworn in on March 15 as a formal successor of Justin Trudeau.
Mark Carney is also an economist, and a former governor of the Bank of Canada and Bank of England.
Upon his new appointment, Mark stressed upon his commitment to defending Canadian sovereignty. Reports stated that he mentioned that meeting US President will be a possibility when ‘when there is respect for Canadian sovereignty’.
