There's a pretty clear hierarchy within a caucus and within a cabinet.  Put Morneau as the Minister of Sport and see how he likes it.  Prime Ministers have long used their power to appoint and remove MPs to/from different cabinet posts, committees, and schedule speaking time in the House of Commons etc. to reward or punish MPs based on their obedience.  Parliament is one big ass-kissing party.

Sure but Trudeau made a pretty big show of making all Ministers equal within his government.
