BEN MULRONEY STEPS IN AS HOST OF THE WEST BLOCK BEGINNING SEPTEMBER 14

Global News is excited to announce the return of its political affairs program, The West Block, entering its fifteenth season beginning September 14 on Global and streaming live on STACKTV, with brand-new interim host, Ben Mulroney.

The award-winning news network’s political program features timely conversations with must-see guests touching on the political and economic issues that matter most to Canadians. Veteran Canadian broadcaster, Ben Mulroney, will take the hosting seat while Ottawa Bureau Chief Mercedes Stephenson is away on parental leave this season, bringing his distinguished television experience, law background and political expertise to each episode.

“The West Block sets the tone, pace and conversation for the week ahead around politics,” said Ben Mulroney. “I feel privileged to be a part of the team bringing Canadians the number one political show in the country.”

Viewers can expect information-packed episodes on the latest in Canadian politics every Sunday starting September 14, at 12 p.m. AT, 11 a.m. ET/CT, and 10 a.m. MT/PT, with encore broadcasts Sunday nights on Global and STACKTV.
