Canadian ministers of the Crown stay in office indefinitely at the Governor General's pleasure. In practice, the Prime Minister is in control of the composition of the Ministry. Ministries are dissolved when the Prime Minister leaves office, though this also occurred once when former Prime Minister Robert Borden formed a coalition Unionist government while in office (dissolving his original Conservative government).
