The newly named Minister of Finance Cathy Rogers is settling into her new role, but it will take some time for her to go over all of the current files.
She says she looks forward as Finance Minister to work smart and fast and think sustainably, “Our priorities remain, to help New Brunswickers to be employed and so this means a strong focus on skills and education. We have to be fiscally responsible, so we have to work smart.”
She says their goal is to make New Brunswick the best place to raise a family.
Rogers was named to the role of Finance Minister in a Cabinet Shuffle last Monday. She is the first female ever in the province to be named to the role.
She says she looks forward, as Finance Minister, to helping the province think about all of interplay of the economy, the environment, and the social, as well as thinking sustainably.
