Ford Government Shuffle: What You Need to Know

In a sweeping cabinet shuffle, the scope of which far exceeded anything that most observers expected, Premier Doug Ford unveiled his new front bench today. In what is being described as a "reset" of the Ontario government, Premier Ford has elevated some of his best communicators to more prominent roles.

This cabinet is much larger than the initial cabinet appointed by Ford in June 2018. It is a cabinet of 28 instead of 21.

Mayors, Councillors, and municipal staff are under pressure to show real progress, not just more debate. For developers, institutions and major proponents advancing projects at the municipal level, that means one thing: if your work is visible, it will be political.
