Jennifer McGuire, general manager of CBC News, made the announcement on Wednesday.
Milewski becomes the senior reporter covering politics in Ottawa.

Solomon has been chosen to host a new political show to run two hours on Newsworld. Further details of the new political program have yet to be confirmed.
Solomon was formerly host of CBC News: Sunday, which gave its last broadcast last month, but is in repeats. He continues as host of CBC News: Sunday Night until the end of August. .
In other changes:
- Keith Boag moves from Ottawa to become a correspondent in Los Angeles.
- Susan Bonner moves from Ottawa to the CBC's Washington bureau.
- Paul Hunter is to be officially posted to the Washington bureau.

FILM REVIEW: Men in Black 3 by Eli Glasner May. 25, 2012 11:40 AM Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones are back in the action sequel Men in Black 3, a third instalment of a series now 15 years old. Though new addition Josh Brolin manages some amazing mimicry as a younger version of Jones, the story doesn't measure up to the weird and wonderful charms of the original, says film reviewer Eli Glasner.
