Crystay Freeland says that if she becomes the next liberal leader and the Prime Minister, the number of federal ministers and Prime Minister’s staff will be reduced by half.
“Leadership begins with the top, so we have to make the Cabinet and the Phalaen (PMO) right in order to start,” said Freeland campaign on Wednesday.
The Freeland campaign states that the size of 38 ministers will be reduced to “ministers of less than 20” from the current list.
In this release, Freeland’s cabinet states that it is “more concentrated and more effective. Balance between regional diversity and a wide range of experiences, and a space for the minister to contribute to governance. I will do it.
According to Freeland’s campaign, the Cabinet, led by the former Deputy Prime Minister and the Minister of Finance, is often supported by the Deputy Minister.
Freeland is one of the six candidates running to replace Prime Minister Justin Trudeau as a liberal leader. The party will select the successor of the Trudeau on March 9th.
Christopher Kokuran, a professor at the University of Toronto, told CBC NEWS that small cabinets could be more intensive and effective, but could have difficulty.
“If you have a small cabinet, you will be more challenging and have a very competent group to balance all the orders of various expressions that the Prime Minister will need to balance. “He said.
These essentials include the chopping of the national, linguistic, ethnic, and gender diversity of the country.
Junior and Senior Minister
Kokuran says that the Prime Minister may be difficult to execute the Cocas discipline.
“It removes the source of incentives that the Prime Minister could use to maintain the loyalty of the parliament,” he said.
In the UK, the British Prime Minister is struggling with the Cocas discipline. Because their lower house has almost twice as many members of Canadian houses.
“In Canada, the ratio is much higher, so there is a reasonable desire for MPS to be part of the Cabinet someday,” he said. “As a result, the Prime Minister creates more loyalty.”
Previously, the former Prime Minister has appointed a smaller minister, and the minister of junior has been able to lead a specific file of a ministry.
Kokuran says this is a successful strategy to maintain the concentration of cabinets, and at the same time, it may enable the minister of junior to achieve things on the ground.
He says that the task can lead to a specific ministry’s responsibility silo that does not know what a minister of the same ministry is doing.
Freeland’s campaign also stated that by reducing the number of PMO staff, as the Prime Minister can give the Cabinet members with more responsibility and end the PMO staff.
“These two actions to restore the trust and trust of the government are only the first steps of Christia’s plan to make the government more effective and efficient and better. “He said on Wednesday, Freeland’s campaign.
