MP Glover shifts to Indian Affairs

MANITOBA MP Shelly Glover is moving over to become the parliamentary secretary for Indian Affairs.

The Prime Minister's Office announced the change Sunday for the first-term Conservative MP, who is Métis. She replaces John Duncan, who a few weeks ago was elevated to become the minister of Indian Affairs in a minor cabinet shuffle.

Glover has been the parliamentary secretary for official languages since 2008.

She represents Saint Boniface and was elected for the first time in October 2008.

She is on a leave of absence from her job as a Winnipeg police officer.

Parliamentary secretaries are assistants to the minister.

They earn an additional $15,834 a year on top of their $157,731 annual salary.

Kenora MP Greg Rickford takes over from Glover in official languages.
