Minister of Intergovernmental Affairs (Canada) → Minister of Intergovernmental Affairs – This is the only office anywhere in the world called Minister of Intergovernmental Affairs.

 * Oppose Each of the Canadian provinces have (or had) such a ministry. Suggest placing a DAB over the redirect at primary Minister of Intergovernmental Affairs.  There are articles at Ministry of Intergovernmental Affairs (Ontario), Ministry of Intergovernmental Affairs (Manitoba) and Secrétariat aux affaires intergouvernementales canadiennes (Quebec), mention of such a position at Executive Council of New Brunswick, and here are some sources for Nova Scotia 1, PEI 2, NFLD 3, BC 4, and Saskatchewan 5. Alberta dissolved Alberta International and Intergovernmental Relations (the name of its equivalent ministry) in 2015. The Canada one gets almost half of the total |Ministry_of_Intergovernmental_Affairs_(Ontario)|Ministry_of_Intergovernmental_Affairs_(Manitoba)|Secrétariat_aux_affaires_intergouvernementales_canadiennes_(Quebec)|Alberta_International_and_Intergovernmental_Relations pageviews, but I don't feel that's enough to move it to primary. – Reidgreg (talk) 20:02, 18 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Those pages are about provincial government departments, not ministerial offices. The exception is Manitoba which uses "Minister of Local Government." This is the only page on Wikipedia about a "Minister of Intergovernmental Affairs." TrailBlzr (talk) 03:49, 21 February 2020 (UTC)
