A pair of Prince George MP’s are back in familiar roles under Pierre Poilievre’s Shadow Cabinet.
The federal Conservative leader announced today (Wednesday), Prince George-Peace River-Northern Rockies MP Bob Zimmer will once again be the Shadow Minister for Northern Affairs and Arctic Sovereignty as well as be part of Canada’s Northern Economic Development Agency.
Zimmer, who was re-elected for a fifth-term in parliament last month held a similar role under previous party leader Erin O’Toole.
In addition, Cariboo-Prince George representative Todd Doherty was named the Shadow Minister for Mental Health and Suicide Prevention.
Similar to Zimmer, Doherty was named to the same role in October of 2022. One of his highlights was championing the three-digit 9-8-8 national suicide prevention line that received royal assent in November of 2023.
