History

Prior to the 2019 Canadian federal election, the minister of international trade was a separate ministerial position.

Before 2015, the Cabinet position responsible for small business was filled by either a Minister of State or Secretary of State. On November 4, 2015, upon the formation of the 29th Canadian Ministry, the position was named "Minister of Small Business and Tourism" without "of State" but remained formally a Minister of State "to assist the Minister of Industry" (the senior portfolio now styled as the Minister of Innovation, Science and Economic Development).[3]

Economic development was added to the title of the portfolio after a Cabinet shuffle following the 2021 federal election.[4]
