Eby ministry

The Eby ministry is the combined Cabinet (formally the Executive Council of British Columbia) that has governed British Columbia since November 18, 2022. It is chaired by the 37th premier of British Columbia, David Eby. The Cabinet is made up of members of the British Columbia New Democratic Party (NDP), which commands a majority in the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia.

The ministry replaced the Horgan ministry after John Horgan stepped down as premier and NDP leader and Eby was selected to succeed him. Eby was sworn into office on November 18, 2022, and appointed his first cabinet on December 7, 2022.

Cabinet composition and shuffles
After being sworn in on November 18, 2022, Eby announced his new cabinet on December 7, 2022. His cabinet consisted of 23 ministers and four ministers of state, and established two new ministries: a standalone Ministry of Housing and the Ministry of Emergency Management and Climate Readiness. Among the changes, former forests minister Katrine Conroy was named the new finance minister; Ravi Kahlon, former jobs minister and a close ally of Eby's, became the inaugural housing minister; Bowinn Ma, formerly minister of state for infrastructure, moved to the new emergency management ministry; and Niki Sharma, former parliamentary secretary for community development, was promoted to Attorney General. A total of eight ministers were elevated from parliamentary secretary or the backbenches — Sharma, Pam Alexis, Brenda Bailey, Jagrup Brar, Dan Coulter, Grace Lore, Andrew Mercier and Rachna Singh — while eight ministers kept the portfolios they held under Horgan: Harry Bains, Lisa Beare, Mitzi Dean, Adrian Dix, Mike Farnworth, Rob Fleming, George Heyman and Murray Rankin. After the shuffle, Eby's cabinet included more women than men.

Two cabinet ministers were replaced in 2024. On January 15, Mitzi Dean was dropped as minister of children and family development, with Grace Lore appointed as her replacement. Dean took Lore's old position as minister of state for child care. Additionally, Andrew Mercier's responsibility changed from workplace development to sustainable forestry innovation. On February 5, Selina Robinson was dismissed as minister of post-secondary education after comments about Palestine; Brenda Bailey assumed the duties of the ministry until a full replacement was named. Two weeks later, on February 20, Lisa Beare was named the new post-secondary minister, and George Chow took over Beare's old portfolio of citizens' services.
