Prime Minister Mark Carney said the head of Quebec’s public utility company Hydro-Québec, Michael Sabia, will become the new Clerk of the Privy Council, the highest ranking civil servant in the government.

Carney said Sabia’s vast experience in the public and private sectors will help his government fulfill its objective to build the “strongest economy in the G7” and lower the cost of living.
