Mark Carney is set to be sworn in as Canada’s 24th prime minister as the nation prepares for a general election and to tackle economic challenges intensified by U.S. President Donald Trump. His cabinet is likely to be leaner than Justin Trudeau’s, comprising 15 to 20 ministers focusing on the economy and sovereignty amidst U.S. pressure. Key roles will remain filled by previous ministers, including Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Joly, while Carney invites rival Chrystia Freeland to take on the transport minister position in his government.
