HALIFAX -- Nova Scotia premier-designate Iain Rankin and his new cabinet will be sworn in next Tuesday.
Lt.-Gov. Arthur LeBlanc will preside over the ceremony at the Halifax Convention Centre.
Rankin was chosen as Liberal party leader at a virtual convention in Halifax Feb. 6.
The 37-year-old edged out two of his fellow ex-cabinet ministers in the vote.
He will replace Stephen McNeil as premier.
McNeil announced his retirement after 17 years in politics last August.
