Leblanc Shuffled to Tougher Job with Brighter Spotlight 19 juillet 2018 – Telegraph Journal LEBLANC SHUFFLED TO TOUGHER JOB WITH BRIGHTER SPOTLIGHT ADAM HURAS PARLIAMENT HILL Dominic LeBlanc Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has entrusted New Brunswick’s most senior federal politician with a much tougher portfolio and brighter national spotlight in a wide- sweeping cabinet shuffle that’s likely integral to the success of the federal Liberals in the lead up to the next election. Dominic LeBlanc has been named the minister of Intergovernmental Affairs. It’s a position Trudeau held himself, until now. The challenging file will now task Le-Blanc with trying to keep the provinces in step with the federal Liberal government’s increasingly controversial plan for a national price on carbon, as the faces around the premiers’ table change considerably. “Provincial elections don’t erase the commitments we made to Canadians in our election campaign,” LeBlanc said in an interview with Brunswick News.“We need to work with these provincial governments to find the best way to achieve what I think are common interests.” The Beauséjour MP will be tasked with pushing back, but also finding common ground with Ontario Premier Doug Ford, while navigating the outcomes of elections on the horizon in Quebec, New Brunswick and Alberta. 19 juillet 2018 – Telegraph Journal Immediately at issue are a few new premiers that stand against some of the federal government’s key policy planks. Ford and Saskatchewan’s Scott Moe are both unified in their opposition of Ottawa’s carbon tax. Meanwhile, last week, P.E.I.’s Liberal government confirmed that its climate action plan will not include a price on carbon. LeBlanc will also manage the divisive immigration file and concerns with a recent flow of asylum seekers into Canada, among other thorny issues involving the provinces. In doing so, LeBlanc relinquishes his current role as federal Fisheries minister. “This will give me an opportunity to be very active in every part of the country,” LeBlanc said.“If you’re minister of Fisheries you have more limited dealings with landlocked provinces like say Ontario, as compared to Atlantic Canada and British Columbia. “This gives me a window into a whole series of issues domestically that cuts across different portfolios.” In addition to the intergovernmental role, LeBlanc becomes minister of Northern Affairs and Internal Trade - the beer border file and other questions of internal trade barriers now becoming his.Trudeau has also named LeBlanc the president of the Queen’s Privy Council for Canada, know as the central machinery of government. The LeBlanc move came as Trudeau revealed on Wednesday what amounted to a big shakeup of his inner circle involving 16 Liberals MPs, while also redefining existing ministries and creating two new ones. LeBlanc was the only New Brunswick-er impacted. Moncton-Riverview-Dieppe MP Ginette Petitpas Taylor retains the role of federal Health minister, while the province’s other eight MPs remain outside of cabinet. 19 juillet 2018 – Telegraph Journal Trudeau said that LeBlanc will now “focus on implementing national commitments and priorities that depend on strong relationships with other orders of government, creating more jobs, growing the economy, and improving interprovincial trade.” In addition, LeBlanc will take on a larger role in the region’s Atlantic Growth Strategy. Still, the shuffle drew immediate criticism from Conservative critic for Atlantic Canada Rob Moore who characterized it as “another hit” to the region. “Prime Minister Justin Trudeau shuffled his cabinet and made it abundantly clear that he doesn’t care about Atlantic Canada,” Moore said. Moore, the Harper Conservative government’s minister responsible for the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency, said the Liberals failed to right a wrong by leaving Navdeep Bains, a minister from Ontario, to oversee ACOA. LeBlanc has also been replaced as Fisheries minister by British Columbia MP Jonathan Wilkinson. “Having a Fisheries minister from the east coast, there is value there in that they know the region and hopefully understand the region,” Moore said.“It’s a major economic driver and another place where we now don’t have ministerial representation.” Donald Savoie, the Canada Research Chair in Public Administration and Governance at Université de Moncton, has predicted that LeBlanc would be promoted to a file that will give him national reach. He said that Trudeau needs LeBlanc’s voice behind a bigger podium ahead of the next federal election. Premier Brian Gallant said that could be helpful to federal-provincial relations. “I think that’s a great move on behalf of the federal government,”Gallant said in reacting the cabinet shuffle at a meeting between the country’s premiers on Wednesday in Bouctouche. 19 juillet 2018 – Telegraph Journal “Dominic is somebody that has the respect of many of my colleagues, he’s somebody who has been part of this government in a significant way, he is somebody who has been around politics for a long time and understand the country, understands all the regions’ aspirations and challenges. “I think he will be a great asset for the federal government to be able to help move files forward and he will be a great asset to us.” Gallant said he understands why Trudeau would give one of his “lieutenants” an important file. “I can sympathize with the prime minister,” Gallant said. “We have the same type of challenges when it comes to the roles we take on a premiers. “We want to do the best we can to engage with the people we should be engaging with, but sometimes we don’t have enough time in the day.” LeBlanc has already changed files twice since the Trudeau government took office in 2015. He was initially given the prominent role of House leader in an original cabinet, but he then took over the role that once belonged to his father, Roméo Le-Blanc, who was Minister of Fisheries and Oceans under the Pierre Trudeau Liberals. He has remained in that position since 2016. .

  • Mass Cancellations Put Artists' Livelihoods at Risk; Arts Organizations in Financial Distress
    Prime Minister Justin Trudeau March 17, 2020 ​ Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland The Honourable Steven Guilbeault The Honourable William Francis Morneau Minister of Canadian Heritage Minister of Finance The Honourable Mona Fortier The Honourable Navdeep Bains Minister of Middle-Class Prosperity Minister of Innovation, Science and Industry Associate Minister of Finance The Honourable Mélanie Joly Minister of Economic Development and Official Languages Re: Mass cancellations put artists’ livelihoods at risk; arts organizations in financial distress Dear Prime Minister Trudeau; Deputy Prime Minister Freeland; and Ministers Guilbeault, Morneau, Fortier, Joly, and Bains, We write as the leadership of Opera.ca, the national association for opera companies and professionals in Canada. In light of recent developments around COVID-19 and the waves of cancellations as a result of bans on mass gatherings, Opera.ca is urgently requesting federal aid on behalf of the Canadian opera sector and its artists -- its most essential and vulnerable people -- while pledging its own emergency support for artists in desperate need. Opera artists are the heart of the opera sector, and their economic survival is in jeopardy. In response to the dire need captured by a recent survey conducted by Opera.ca, the board of directors of Opera.ca today voted for an Opera Artists Emergency Relief Fund to be funded by the association. Further details will be announced shortly. Of the 14 professional opera companies in Canada, almost all have cancelled their current production and some the remainder of the season. This is an unprecedented crisis with long-reaching implications for the entire Canadian opera sector.

    The Honourable Ginette Petitpas Taylor, P.C., M.P. Minister of Health House of Commons Ottawa, ON K1A 0A6 Re: Dedicated ALS Research Funding Dear Minister Petitpas Taylor, I am writing to you today on behalf of the nearly 3,000 Canadians living with ALS today and the 1,000 Canadians who will be diagnosed each year in the future, all of who continue to face the realities of this challenging and terminal disease – realities that led Carol Skinner and Eddy Lefrançois, two Canadians affected by ALS, to start a letter-writing campaign. The campaign asked Members of Parliament to hold themselves accountable following their unanimous approval of Motion M-105, which called on the government to play a leadership role in supporting ALS research and national efforts to find a cure. Over the course of four months, more than 2,300 Canadians joined Carol and Eddy in their initiative. But even that short time proved to be too long for someone living with ALS: Eddy Lefrançois died in January 2019 before he could see the results of his initiative. The reality is that ALS continues to be a devastating disease and the impact on families – emotionally, financially, and psychologically – is tremendous. Despite advancements in research the causes of ALS are unknown, and 80 per cent of people with ALS die within two to five years of being diagnosed. Since the unanimous approval of M-105 in April 2017, there has been little action from the federal government to act on the repeated calls from the ALS community to invest in dedicated, sustained funding for ALS research.

We have over 70 member companies comprising over 2,000 employees in highly skilled jobs and the sector has attracted over $0.5 billion of investment in the past 2 years -- and is growing. But this is only the tip of the iceberg. Hydrogen energy will benefit millions of Canadians and help scores of industries decarbonize. The Hydrogen Council forecasts the global sector will become a $2.5 trillion annual market by 2050 to achieve net-zero CO2 emissions, while the Bank of America cites Bloomberg BNEF forecasting an $11 trillion infrastructure market over the next 30 years1. Canada is well positioned to secure a large share of that market due to the world renown strength of our technology companies and energy resources. But over 26 other countries also see the opportunity, so there is urgency to move quickly to maintain our Canadian advantage. For that reason, the CHFCA, with the support of other leading Canadian industry associations, urges: 1. The prompt release of the Hydrogen Strategy for Canada, 2. That it be backed with significant federal government investment, and 3.

  • Cpha Letter to Prime Minister on Drug Shortage Concerns
    August 8, 2019 The Right Honourable Justin Trudeau, P.C., M.P. Prime Minister of Canada Langevin Block Ottawa, ON K1A 0A2 Dear Prime Minister Over the last two weeks, Canadians along with pharmacists have been alarmed by the growing interest from our American counterparts to import medications from Canada into the US and the impact that this could have on Canada’s drug supply. While we sympathize with American patients who are seeking affordable access to medications, we do not believe that this is a practical or sustainable solution to addressing their domestic concerns. While we are very encouraged that the federal government is meeting with stakeholders next week to develop a plan to address the US proposal, the focus and attention on the recent US announcement has also put a much-needed spotlight on an issue that is deeply concerning to Canadians. Drug shortages in Canada are not a new phenomenon but pharmacists are reporting significant increases in the last 3-5 years. In some cases, pharmacists have indicated that up to 50% of their weekly order was not able to be filled. This trend has also been confirmed by patients with one in four Canadians saying that they have experienced a shortage, either personally or a family/friend. Given the nature of the global supply chain and the challenges that health care providers experience on the front lines, we would urge the government to commit to a clear drug shortage action plan that would include: 1. Research on the underlying causes of shortages in Canada and globally 2.

As you know, the Office of the Prime Minister forwarded a copy of your correspondence to the Honourable Ginette Petitpas Taylor, Minister of Health, and the Honourable Dominic LeBlanc, Minister of Intergovernmental and Northern Affairs. I appreciate being made aware of the concerns that members of Food Secure Canada and other organizations have regarding the timely announcement of A Food Policy for Canada. As the Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food, I am honoured that the Prime Minister asked me to lead on a food policy that promotes healthy living and safe food by putting more healthy, high-quality food produced by Canadian ranchers and farmers on the tables of families across the country. A Food Policy for Canada is expected to be a federal, whole-of-government initiative that will establish a long-term vision for a coordinated and systems-based approach to addressing a broad scope of food-related issues in Canada. Throughout the public consultations held in 2017 on this food policy, Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC) heard from many participants about the importance of taking a balanced approach toward addressing the interconnected themes of food security, health and food safety, environmental sustainability, and economic growth.
