EDMONTON– The Leader of the Liberal Party of Canada, Justin Trudeau, today announced the following changes to the Liberal team of Caucus Critics:

“I am pleased to announce that Emmanuel Dubourg will be assuming the role of National Revenue Critic and that Chrystia Freeland will now be assuming the responsibilities of International Trade Critic. I have the utmost of faith that these two new Liberal MPs will serve as strong voices for their communities in Ottawa.
