The House

The House

New government. New PM. New priorities. And no one’s taking a break for the summer. Catherine Cullen & CBC’s best political journalists cut through the noise and make politics make sense.


Every Saturday, join Catherine and her guest hosts on The House for in-depth explorations of the biggest issues facing Canada: negotiating with Donald Trump, Canada's climate goals, military readiness, and more.


We’ll be out on location, we'll speak to decision makers, we'll check in on how the political parties are gearing up for the Fall sitting… and, as usual, hear analysis of the week’s news from across the political spectrum.


Because democracy is a conversation, and we’re here for it.
