Dalai Lama Asserts Sole Authority Over Reincarnation Amid China’s Claims

In a landmark declaration just days before his 90th birthday, the Dalai Lama has reaffirmed that the centuries-old Tibetan Buddhist institution will continue after his death—and that his reincarnation will be determined solely by the Gaden Phodrang Trust , a foundation he established.

Carney's Cabinet Overhaul: A New Era for Canadian Governance


Prime Minister Mark Carney is set to unveil his new cabinet today at Rideau Hall, marking a significant shift in his administration's approach. The swearing-in ceremony, scheduled for 10:30 a.m. ET, will introduce a streamlined front bench designed to emphasize a more business-oriented governance style.

Carney's new team is expected to consist of up to 30 ministers and 10 secretaries of state, with nearly half of the appointees being fresh faces, including newly elected officials from the April 28 election. A government insider has indicated that the cabinet will feature representatives from every province and the North, ensuring a broad national perspective.

This marks Carney’s second cabinet formation, but his first outside of a caretaker government. His previous cabinet, formed in March, faced criticism for consolidating several ministerial roles into larger portfolios, a move that some advocacy groups opposed. Today’s announcement is expected to address some of those concerns while maintaining a focus on efficiency and economic growth.

As Canada watches closely, the unveiling of Carney’s cabinet will set the tone for his administration’s priorities in the coming months. With Parliament set to return on May 26, the new ministers will have little time to settle in before tackling key legislative challenges.
