Opposition parties slam Trudeau cabinet’s future appointments to government agencies

Prime Minister Mark Carney should review a series of future appointments made by his predecessor’s government and shouldn’t automatically accept them, Green Party Co-Leader Elizabeth May said Friday.

In an interview with CBC News, May said appointments have to be filled but it was “a huge mistake” to make so many of those appointments in the final days of Justin Trudeau’s government.

“Any last-minute appointments of people who, I’m pretty sure, are likely to be Liberals, raises the worst possible political optics and it reinforces the idea that Trudeau was aiding and abetting his cronies throughout.”
