This article assesses the outcome of the Liberal reforms to the Canadian public appointments policy after Justin Trudeau vowed to enhance the diversity of federal board members. We compare 1,174 Liberal Governor‐in‐Council (GIC) with 1,409 GIC appointments made by the Conservative government during its final term in office. Examining all appointees’ place of residence, educational background, occupational history, Indigeneity, and estimated ethnicity revealed that public member representation within federal agencies, boards, and commissions has shifted. Consequently, we find that the Trudeau government succeeded in its quest to enhance equity, diversity, and inclusion considerations more effectively than its predecessor, albeit with room for progress
