As Prime Minister Justin Trudeau reorganized his front bench Wednesday in a massive federal cabinet shuffle, he also created a single new job: minister of citizens’ services.
But when the minister appointed to the new role was asked what exactly citizens’ services is, he wasn’t entirely clear.
“I actually think that getting stuff done and delivering goods and services to Canadians in ways that actually makes a difference in their lives is really good politics,” she said. The problems led the prime minister to strike a task force made up of cabinet ministers to address serious delays in passport and immigration applications.“There’s this whole of government challenge. Is the government actually set up to deliver services to Canadians in ways that reflect the way that citizens expect to be treated now?” she said.
After his new cabinet was sworn in, Trudeau said his team will offers an optimistic view of the future “that is a clear contrast from the broken-ist philosophy that the leader of the Conservative party continues to put forward.” The kinds of files that are likely to fall under Beech’s supervision are some of the most tangible interactions people are likely to have with government. Sometimes, those are things that affect people’s bank accounts, she said.
