Canadian reshuffle

Justin Trudeau is not allowing his administration to become stale. His reshuffle includes the youngest female cabinet minister and the first Somali-Canadian.

Particularly interesting is the appointment of Cynthia Freeland as Foreign Minister. A Rhodes scholar, she has journalistic experience of Ukraine, Russia and other parts of eastern Europe, so should provide an objective counter-weight to the incoming representative from Canada's neighbour to the south.
