Summary
Prime Minister Mark Carney is reshuffling leadership at Invest in Canada just ahead of a major investment summit, appointing Dominic Barton—former Canadian ambassador to China and McKinsey veteran—as new board chair, and Gurinder Grewal as CEO, bringing deep expertise in global capital flows. Barton, who helped design the agency back in 2016 and played a key role in securing the release of Canadians detained in China, will serve part-time for three years while the outgoing chair aids in transition. Grewal’s track record spans energy, tech, and infrastructure investments. The move follows Laurel Broten’s resignation, though Carney didn’t publicly acknowledge her departure. With the summit looming in Toronto, Carney aims to attract billions by showcasing Canada’s strengths—but much of the event’s logistics appear to be managed by PMO staff and pension boards, raising questions about Invest in Canada’s direct role.
