Ottawa abuzz over shuffle today

Political Ottawa is abuzz with speculation today about how Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will reshape his cabinet today after the unexpected resignation of longtime Liberal Scott Brison from his post as Treasury Board president.

The cabinet shuffle is expected to be small, with as few adjustments as possible to fill the void of Brison’s departure. But given the internal importance of Treasury Board when it comes to government spending, the shuffle is expected to include at least one big name.
