Minister Freeland retains her MP status. The Prime Minister assigns her the role of Special Envoy for the Rebuilding of Ukraine.

In a significant move, Prime Minister Mark Carney announced on September 16th, 2025, that Chrystia Freeland will serve as Canada's new Special Representative for the Reconstruction of Ukraine. The announcement was made after a Cabinet meeting held in Burlington, ON.

The meeting, which was closed to the press, concluded with Prime Minister Carney and Chrystia Freeland exiting with arms around each other and smiles on their faces. Despite the absence of a press conference, the announcement was made in a written comment by Prime Minister Carney.

It's worth noting that Chrystia Freeland will continue to serve as a Member of Parliament in addition to her new role. The position of Special Representative for the Reconstruction of Ukraine is an important one, given the ongoing challenges in Ukraine.

Interestingly, Prime Minister Mark Carney himself was appointed as Canada's special envoy for Ukraine's reconstruction by the Canadian Prime Minister, who previously held the same position. This appointment underlines the government's commitment to supporting Ukraine in its reconstruction efforts.

As the details of Chrystia Freeland's new role unfold, Canadians and the international community will be watching closely to see how this appointment will shape Canada's approach to Ukraine's reconstruction.
