New Faces, But Stability Key In Harper Cabinet Shuffle

Stephen Harper, just recently announced his first majority cabinet members.  There were a few new faces, and a few shuffles, but Prime Minister Harper seemed to keep more experienced ministers in prior positions.  Prime Minister Harper said that he had to make some significant changes due to the fact of two retirements, and four election losses.  He says that the new cabinet is, "fundamentally about stability and continuity."  After the cabinet was sworn in at Rideau Hall on Wedenesday, Prime Minister Harper said that he never had a deeper roster of talent to choose his new cabinet ministers from.  Some of the new faces in the ministry include, Steven Blaney as Minister Of Vetran Affairs, Bal Gosal as Minister Of State For Sport, Joes Oliver as Minister For Natural Resources, and a few others.  Prime Minister Harper said, that he wanted to make as few changes as possible, and says also, that the MP's who were not given a promotion, will gain more political experience, which will give The Conservative Party Of Canada, a bright future in terms of possible cabinet ministers.

I believe that Prime Minister Harper did an excellent job at organizing his first majority ministry.  I think that the idea of keeping experienced cabinet ministers in there prior positions to the elections was a smart move, as Canada recovered from the recent recession with most of these cabinet ministers in the spots they are in today.  I believe that this was a smart decision to keep them like this, as Canada continues to recover from the recent recession, and the people who were in-charge before, should still be in-charge now.  I think that it is also good that there are some new ministers in the ministry, because there needs to be some new ministers as well, with some new ideas.  I think that his will bring some new, and creative decisions within the ministry, and will overall, improve the ministry.  Overall, I think that Prime Minister Harper did an excellent job at creating his new ministry, and made the right decisions with the placement, and how he keep where he put his cabinet ministers.
