    Political Watchers Weigh in on Potential Gallant Cabinet Shuffle

    21 juillet 2017 – Times & Transcript Political watchers weigh in on potential Gallant cabinet shuffle ADAM HURAS LEGISLATURE BUREAU Who should be pushed out? Who’s poised for a cabinet seat? Let the speculation begin. With Premier Brian Gallant’s office confirming that the Liberal government is considering a cabinet shuffle as early as the end of summer, political watchers have been quick to theorize what a shakeup will look like. “It is common practice for a provincial government to shuffle its cabinet in the lead-up to an election,” said Jamie Gillies, associate professor of communications and public policy at St. Thomas University. “It gives a government an opportunity to potentially increase the profile of MLAs in more vulnerable constituencies or promote those who have not yet served in cabinet. “A last cabinet shuff le before an election can also be seen as a final opportunity to move retiring cabinet ministers out in favour of those running for re-election and, in some cases, remove ministers that have handled files or policy areas that have proved unpopular with the public.” UNPOPULAR FILES “I’m surprised it hasn’t happened already,” said Mario Levesque, a political science professor at Mount Allison University, in an interview with the Telegraph-Journal. “There are some files that definitely need a new face.” It’s already in its fifth month of grabbing headlines and giving the Gallant government headaches, but the ongoing property tax controversy will stay in the spotlight with auditor general Kim MacPherson slated to release a report on the troubled assessment system by the end of November.
