Shadow cabinet includes Scott Aitchison and Leslyn Lewis, but not veteran B.C. MP Ed Fast and Alberta MP Michelle Rempel Garner
has announced a list of opposition critics that includes posts for his leadership rivals Scott Aitchison and Leslyn Lewis, but not former party leader Erin O’Toole.
Mr. Fast, a former international trade minister under Stephen Harper first elected to Parliament in 2006 as the MP for the B.C. riding of Abbotsford, stepped down as the Conservative finance critic in May, criticizing Mr. Poilievre’s commitment to fire Bank of Canada governor Tiff Macklem over the country’s inflation rate. Mr. Fast said the idea hurt the party’s credibility on economic issues.
The party announced that Mr. Poilievre was the new leader on Sept. 10 in Ottawa. Mr. Poilievre, who represents an Ottawa-area riding, becomes the third leader of the party, after Andrew Scheer and Erin O’Toole, since the Stephen Harper-led Conservatives were defeated by Justin Trudeau’s Liberals in 2015. Mr. Scheer was leader for three years, from 2017 to 2020, and Mr. O’Toole led the party for a year and a half.
