with no party controlling a majority of seats in the Legislative Assembly. However, the NDP was eventually able to form a minority government with the support of the Green Party of British Columbia. The NDP government was sworn in on July 18, 2017, with new Premier John Horgan naming Kahlon as Parliamentary Secretary for Sport and Multiculturalism. Kahlon was later named Parliamentary Secretary for Forests, Lands, Natural Resource Operations and Rural Development. Kahlon supported eventual winner Jagmeet Singh for leader of the federal New Democratic Party in that party's 2017 leadership election. Following his re-election in 2020, in which he won 56.78% of the vote, he was named Minister of Jobs, Economic Recovery and Innovation. After Horgan announced his retirement as premier and party leader in 2022, Kahlon endorsed David Eby and joined as co-chair of Eby's campaign, alongside Katrina Chen. Kahlon was subsequently named Minister of Housing and Government House Leader in the Eby ministry on December 7, 2022.
