The Ministry of Labour still exists - it is in the portfolio of the Minister of Jobs and Families which is responsible for Employment and Social Development Canada: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Employment_and_Social_Development_Canada

Carney had to make some changes to demonstrate he's not JT. But also Carney reduced the size of cabinet for a more wartime stance given the tarriff war we're in. Also to perform austerity (less ministers to pay extra) while not actually doing austerity (they are responsible for more). All of this knowing we will likely be going into an election very soon. Each time there's a federal election new cabinet ministers are named. They change up cabinet minsters every so often as well. Whether there's an election or not. It's nothing new or unusual.

Yes, I can get the sense for this, so I agree.

That's actually pretty smart. The PMO should broadcast this point more.
