OTTAWA -- A mix of Conservative veterans and relative rookies will form the team behind Conservative Leader Andrew Scheer as he faces off this fall against Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

Scheer unveiled on Wednesday his so-called shadow cabinet, the list of members of Parliament who will serve as critics of portfolios in the Liberal government's cabinet.

On Scheer's team are all but two of the sitting MPs who challenged him for the leadership, a race that ended in May with a narrow 13-ballot victory over presumptive front-runner Maxime Bernier.

Both Kellie Leitch and Deepak Obhrai were bumped, although they had already relinquished their roles in order to seek the leadership.

Bernier has been tasked with keeping tabs on the Liberals' marquee innovation agenda, while third-place finisher Erin O'Toole nabs the Foreign Affairs portfolio.

Scheer had already given the deputy leader position to fellow contender Lisa Raitt; prior to the leadership vote, she served as finance critic, a job now occupied by longtime MP Pierre Poilievre.

According to the Conservative Party's press release, the following caucus members have been named a part of the Official Opposition House Leadership Team:

John Brassard has been named Deputy Opposition Whip.

Hon. Diane Finley has been named Caucus-Party Liaison.
