The Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness (French: Ministre de la Sécurité publique et de la Protection civile) is the Minister of the Crown in the Canadian Cabinet responsible for overseeing the federal government's domestic security department, Public Safety Canada.[2] The position is a successor to the previous position of Solicitor General of Canada, with the official title of Solicitor General briefly carrying over during the 27th Canadian Ministry.
The position was nominally created in December 2003 and incorporated the responsibilities associated with the Solicitor General, including responsibility for the federal prison system (Correctional Service of Canada), the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, the Parole Board of Canada, and the Canadian Security Intelligence Service.[2] The position also assumed responsibility for the Canada Border Services Agency upon that agency's formation in December 2003. The title of Solicitor General was abolished in 2005 and formally replaced in relevant laws with the present title.
The current minister is Ralph Goodale.[3]
