Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says his team of familiar and new faces will deliver on real change.

Flanked by his new cabinet, Trudeau says the top-of-mind issue for Canadians is ending the pandemic for good.

He says the country is not out of the COVID-19 pandemic yet, despite high vaccination rates.

He says his government will move forward on legislation that specifically criminalizes harassment of health-care workers.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says Canadians are expecting big things from this Parliament and his government.

He says they expect Canada to step up its efforts on fighting climate change, work harder on reconciliation and build back better to include everyone.

Trudeau had a one word answer when reporters asked if he would run in the next election, an emphatic "Yes."
