The provincial government has scheduled a surprise swearing-in ceremony this afternoon.
The province has been taking a lot of flack in recent weeks following the appointment of Justice Minister John Hogan as interim Health Minister following the resignation of Tom Osborne.
Critics believe the portfolio is so important it requires a stand alone, full-time ministerial position.
It’s not clear what is behind today’s swearing-in ceremony, set for 2:30 this afternoon.
VOCM News will be there to provide the latest information as it becomes available.
