Anand, who was a front-runner in the race to be the next prime minister to replace Trudeau, had in January declared that she is backing out from the race and also that she would not be seeking re-election.However, she had reversed the decision on March 1 saying, “Canada is facing a crucial moment in our nation’s history.”Born and raised in rural Nova Scotia, Anand moved to Ontario in 1985.”I am honoured to be sworn in as the Minister of Innovation, Science, and Economic Development in @MarkJCarney’s Government. We know that negativity won’t pay the rent or the mortgage. Negativity won’t bring down the price of groceries. Negativity won’t win a trade war.We are united and strong and we will immediately get to work, to build the Canada and the Canadian economy of tomorrow,” she said in a post on X.
