History

[edit]

Prior to the 2019 Canadian federal election, the role was variously known as Minister of International Trade and Minister of International Trade Diversification. In 2019, the portfolio was merged with Small Business and Export Promotion and renamed Minister of Small Business, Export Promotion and International Trade. In 2021, the role gained additional responsibility for economic development, being renamed Minister of International Trade, Export Promotion, Small Business and Economic Development.[3] In 2023, the role lost responsibility for small business to the Minister of Small Business, shifting to its current title as a result.
