Prime Minister Stephen Harper: Deputy Ministers

Shuffle Dept: Overhauling that cabinet can be trickier still, but Prime Minister Stephen Harper is preparing to do just that this summer, according to The Star. The signs are he will not move until August, following a shuffle of deputy ministers necessitated by some high-profile retirements. And there could be some surprises and oTTAWA Crafting a cabinet is tricky business. The prime minister must balance gender and geography, weigh experience against much-needed new blood. He doesn t like the big shuffle, he certainly doesn t like to shuffle under duress, but he appears to have little choice for a government only a year into a majority, it is a group that provides too much easy fodder for the opposition and looks tired.
