Moore was elected as the Member of Parliament for Port Moody-Westwood and Port Coquitlam in November 2000.
He is viewed as an up and coming figure in the Conservative party in Ottawa.
Moore's appointment came as no surprise to Ben Meisner,”I am not surprised, some time ago I got a call from a national newspaper asking me what I knew about James, I told them to put a star beside his name because it is my belief that some time in the future he will be Canada’s Prime Minister."
Meisner said Moore displayed his abilities when he used to fill in on the radio program "To just come in off the street and do a talk show in the manner he did, shows that he had a great deal of savvy and intelligence for his age, being appointed to the Cabinet comes as no surprise to me , he will move up the ladder quickly."
Moore is filling the portfolio that had been held by David Emerson, as Emerson has moved into Foreign Affairs to fill the gap created by the departure of Maxime Bernier.
