What happens during the ceremony?
The swearing-in ceremony will kick off with St-Pierre Plamondon taking his oaths as a member of the executive council and as premier.
Accompanied by the secretary general and clerk of the executive council, he will then sign the official register at the National Assembly.
Following that, as each incoming cabinet minister is called, they will step into the council chamber to take two oaths — including a pledge to keep cabinet deliberations confidential — and sign the register.
The newly sworn-in premier is set to deliver an address at 3 p.m. ET, with the government’s first cabinet meeting scheduled for later this evening at 6 p.m.
