MP VIC TOEWS NEW PUBLIC SAFETY MINISTER

Prime Minster Stephen Harper has made a cabinet shuffle. The position of Minister of Public Safety has been given to MP Vic Toews.

The Manitoba Senior Cabinet Minister had been the Treasury Board President since 2007. He was the Justice Minister for 1 year prior to that position. He has been an MP for Provencher since 2000.

Media outlets were saying that the Prime Minister was not pleased with Van Loans handling of some issues with the RCMP.

There have been 10 cabinet shuffles today. MP Toews was swore in today as the Minister for Public Safety.

Hopefully this cabinet shuffle will be a help in resolving the current issue with Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA).
