David Eby Unveils New B.C. Cabinet with Focus on Key Issues

The newly appointed cabinet aims to address affordability, healthcare, and public safety in British Columbia.

Premier David Eby has introduced a new cabinet featuring a mix of veteran and rookie ministers to tackle pressing 'kitchen table' issues.
With a slim NDP majority, Eby emphasizes the need for cooperation across party lines while setting boundaries against hate and discrimination.
The new cabinet includes 27 ministers, maintaining the size of the previous government, with many new appointments due to retirements and electoral losses.
Key ministerial changes include Brenda Bailey as the new finance minister and Josie Osborne taking over the health portfolio from Adrian Dix.
Eby's cabinet faces the challenge of representing rural areas, with only five NDP MLAs elected outside Metro Vancouver and Vancouver Island.
