Thunder Bay-Atikokan MPP Kevin Holland was named parliamentary assistant for both the Indigenous affairs and northern development portfolios
In a minor switch-up of parliamentary assistant roles announced late last week, Holland will become the parliamentary assistant to the minister of Indigenous affairs and for northern development, with both of those portfolios overseen by Minister Greg Rickford.“The staff from Minister Rickford already reached out to me to bring me up to speed on the files associated with the ministry that obviously I don't have as much intimate knowledge of right now,” he said.
“The Indigenous file of course is a very important file for me, [as is] meeting with the Indigenous leaders when the opportunity presents and really become more aware of the needs of the Indigenous communities,” he said. “[It was an] opportunity to learn from the minister, particularly in the portfolio that I was very familiar with, as the mayor of my community for 31 years,” he said.
