The two portfolios were permanently seperated in 1912. The position was then held concurrently by the Prime Minister of Canada until 1946. Noted Secretaries of State for External Affairs have included Lester Pearson, Paul Martin, Sr., Allan MacEachen, Mitchell Sharp and Joe Clark.
   
The position was replaced by the Minister of Foreign Affairs in 1993.
