Culture Minister Steven Guilbeault is resigning from cabinet over Prime Minister Mark Carney’s deal with Alberta Premier Danielle Smith to advance a proposed Alberta–B.C. pipeline and overhaul energy policies. The Quebec MP says he will remain in the Liberal caucus.
“This afternoon, it is with great sadness that I submitted my resignation to the Prime Minister as Minister of Canadian Identity and Culture and Minister responsible for Official Languages, Minister of Nature and Parks Canada, as well as his Lieutenant in Quebec,” Guilbeault said in a statement on Nov. 27.
