Thunder Bay-Superior MPP Michael Gravelle is taking over as minister of Ontario’s ministry of Northern Development and Mines (MNDM).
Gravelle was announced as MNDM minister on Feb. 11, as new premier Kathleen Wynne was sworn in and her new cabinet announced.
Sudbury MPP Rick Bartolucci had previously announced he would be stepping down as minister and leaving politics at the end of his coming term.
Wynne also announced that Ontario’s ministry of Aboriginal Affairs would become an independent ministry in her government.
David Zimmer, MPP for the Toronto riding of Willowdale, becomes the new minister of Aboriginal Affairs.
Gravelle’s previous position at Natural Resources will be filled by David Orazietti, the MPP for Sault Ste. Marie.
