Clement continues in FedNor Portfolio

The Head of the Economic Development Agency for Northern Ontario is staying put.

Tony Clement has kept his post as FedNor Minister in the new Federal Cabinet.

Since taking over the Industry Canada program in 2006, Clement has spent nearly 150-million dollars in the North.

John Duncan keeps his job as Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Minister, while the Natural Resources portfolio will see a change with Toronto-area MP Joe Oliver taking over.
