Justin Trudeau
Justin Trudeau visited Gov. Gen. Mary Simon Friday morning to formally resign as prime minister, paving the way for Mark Carney to become Canada's 24th prime minister.
A swearing-in ceremony is set for 11 a.m. at Rideau Hall, where Carney will also reveal his first cabinet.
His cabinet is expected to be smaller than Trudeau's 37-member team and almost certainly will be in place when a general election is launched.
Liberal MPs began arriving at Rideau Hall shortly after 10 a.m., including Ontario MP Arielle Kayabaga and Nova Scotia MP Kody Blois, who were not in Trudeau's cabinet.
Trudeau ministers Steven MacKinnon, Patty Hajdu, Jonathan Wilkinson, Steven Guilbeault, Joanne Thompson, Nate Erskine-Smith and Anita Anand were also spotted heading into the governor general's residence.
Chrystia Freeland, who resigned from Trudeau's cabinet in December and ran for the leadership against Carney, also arrived for the ceremony.
