Three more Canadian government ministers said on Tuesday they would step down at the next election, freeing up room inside Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's cabinet for a reshuffle that he will unveil this week.
Trudeau, who last carried out a major shake-up in October 2021, is looking to refresh his left-leaning Liberal Party team ahead of an election that must be called by October 2025 and could happen earlier.
"The prime minister deserves a cabinet is committed to running in the next federal campaign," he said in a video. Public Procurement Minister Helena Jaczek, 72, and Fisheries Minister Joyce Murray, 69, said on social media that they also would not run again. La Presse newspaper said Montreal-area Justice Minister David Lametti, 60, would also lose his job. Spokespeople for Lametti were not immediately available for comment.
