Les termes «ministère» et «cabinet» sont souvent employés l'un pour l'autre, mais de fait, le ministère comprend à la fois les ministres et les secrétaires d'État. À l'origine, le conseil des ministres désignait les ministres détenant un portefeuille à titre amovible, alors que le cabinet était l'endroit mis par le premier ministre à la disposition du conseil pour ses réunions. Ministère et cabinet ne sont pas toujours interchangeables, les ministres n'étant pas tous membres du Cabinet. Mais durant une bonne partie de l'histoire du Canada, les deux termes ont désigné la même chose. 3, record 3, French, - minist%C3%A8re
