Mark Carney is officially Canada’s 24th prime minister. About an hour after Justin Trudeau officially resigned on Friday, Carney’s first cabinet was sworn in alongside him at a ceremony at Rideau Hall. The new Liberal government has 24 ministers — 13 men and 11 women, including Carney — and no deputy prime minister. It maintains Trudeau’s core team that has been dealing with the trade war with U.S. President Donald Trump, but drops 18 members of the former prime minister’s cabinet.
