EDMONTON – Alberta has a new minister of infrastructure.
Martin Long has been appointed to the cabinet post after the previous minister resigned earlier this week.
Long, the member for West Yellowhead, says he will continue building infrastructure to keep up with population growth.
First elected in 2019, Long has served as a parliamentary secretary for various files, including small business, and most recently, rural health.
His appointment comes after Peter Guthrie resigned as infrastructure minister over concerns about how procurement contracts were being signed across government.
Guthrie, who represents Airdrie-Cochrane, remains in Premier Danielle Smith’s United Conservative caucus but now sits as a backbencher with no cabinet responsibilities.
