Prime Minister Justin Trudeau told reporters on Tuesday he is 'happy' Employment Minister Randy Boissonnault remains in his cabinet and represents Albertans.
Reporters at the summit pressed Trudeau to explain why he maintains confidence in Boissonnault in light of new fraud allegations made against Boissonnault’s former business partner and other accusations that Boissonnault misrepresented his family’s Indigenous ancestry.
“In the meantime, I’m happy that he is continuing to lead on issues around jobs and employment and represent Alberta in our government.” Boissonnault has faced scrutiny this week over past statements he made identifying himself as a “non-status adopted Cree.” He later clarified his adoptive family had Métis ancestry.
