As first disclosed by the Star, Ford has shuffled his cabinet, demoting some under performers and promoting up-and-coming ministers. Following just four months in office, Premier Doug Ford has pressed the reset button. NDP MPP Sara Singh (Brampton Centre) expressed concern that Ford didn’t seize the opportunity to make the cabinet more ethnically diverse. Indeed, it’s the earliest that a new premier has shuffled his cabinet since Tory Ernie Eves shook up his executive council after four months in office in 2002. Similarly, former Tory premier Mike Harris shuffled his cabinet in 1995 after 14 months while former Liberal premier Dalton McGuinty rejigged his executive council in 2005 after one year and eight months in power.
