TheThirtieth Canadian Ministry or theCarney Ministry is the ministry currently in office led by Prime MinisterMark Carney. It was formed on March 14, 2025 following the resignation of former Prime MinisterJustin Trudeau and Carney's victory in the Liberal leadership contest over formerDeputy Prime MinisterChrystia Freeland.[1][2][3] Initially, Carney reduced the size of the cabinet from 37 ministers under Trudeau, to 24 ministers including himself.[4] Following the2025 federal election that returned the Liberals as a minority government, Carney revamped his cabinet on May 13 with 29 ministers including himself, and appointed a further 10 secretaries of state, reviving a non-cabinet ministerial rank used throughout theChrétien Ministry and briefly during theHarper Ministry.
The29th Canadian Ministry of Justin Trudeau had started a tradition ofgender parity with an equal number of male and female ministers excluding the prime minister. The brief first Carney cabinet from March to May 2025 had slightly more male than female ministers, but an equal number of male and female ministers excluding the prime minister was reinstituted in the post-election cabinet in May.[5]
Secretaries of State are considered part of the ministry but not part ofcabinet. The practice of appointing Secretaries of State to assist more senior ministers was revived during the May 13, 2025 cabinet shuffle, having previously been used during the governments ofJean Chrétien andStephen Harper.
