Doherty takes on mental health, Zimmer takes on northern affairs
Prince George's two MPs remain in familiar roles in the latest edition of the Conservative shadow cabinet.
On Wednesday, party leader Pierre Poilievre named Cariboo-Prince George MP Todd Doherty the Opposition critic for Mental Health and Suicide Prevention and Prince George-Peace River-Northern Rockies MP Bob Zimmer the Opposition critic for Northern Affairs and Arctic Sovereignty. Zimmer was also named to the position when the party's previous leader, Erin O'Toole, named his shadow cabinet in November 2021.
Doherty, who has been recovering from knee surgery, was left out of that version but was the special advisor to the leader on mental health and wellness when O'Toole appointed his shadow cabinet in September 2020.Fifty, including Doherty and Zimmer, were named "shadow ministers" and 20 were named "associate shadow ministers" but a handful to significant portfolios such as finance and justice.
