Osborne replacing Dix as Health Minister, Begg in for Farnworth as Solicitor General
Premier David Eby Monday unveiled his new cabinet during a ceremony held at Government House, the official residence of Lt. Governor Janet Austin.
"At a time when there is a lot of worry and uncertainty about the future, British Columbians have asked us to work together and get things done that make a real difference in their daily lives," Eby said. Perhaps the most significant shake-up concerns the Ministry of Health, which now belongs to Josie Osborne. She essentially switched jobs with Dix, who is now responsible for energy, under the newly created Ministry of Energy and Climate Solutions.
Bowinn Ma, who previously headed B.C.'s response to various emergencies, returns to cabinet, but this time as Minister of Infrastructure. Returning MLA Kelly Greene joins takes over from Ma as Minister of Emergency Management and Climate Readiness. Lana Popham returns to her previous role as Minister for Agriculture and Food, a position she held under late premier John Horgan. Her previous cabinet portfolio of Tourism, Arts, Culture and Sport goes to Spencer Chandra Herbert.
