Ontario Premier Doug Ford shuffles cabinet

This is the best summary I could come up with:

---

Ford's changes come as the legislature rose for an extended summer break — to late October — and as the premier has been fuelling early election speculation by refusing to commit to waiting until 2026 to go to the polls.

One of the new faces in cabinet is Mike Harris, son of the former premier, and he takes over the red-tape reduction portfolio, which has been vacant since Parm Gill resigned in January to run for the federal Conservatives.

Auditor general Bonnie Lysyk found that developers who had access to Clark's chief of staff, Ryan Amato, wound up with 92 per cent of the land taken out of the Greenbelt.

"Let's not forget that this was a minister who resigned in disgrace because of his central role in the government and Doug Ford's Greenbelt corruption scandal and now he's going to be put in charge of it with pretty enormous responsibility."

Calandra had worn multiple hats in the government, including quietly taking over as red tape minister when Parm Gill left for the federal Tories in the spring.

Sam Oosterhoff, who became Ontario's youngest-ever member of provincial parliament in 2016 when he was elected in a byelection at the age of 19, is now in cabinet as associate minister of energy-intensive industries.
