The House (radio program)
[1] The program debuted on October 22, 1977, soon after the rules of the House of Commons of Canada were changed to permit radio and television broadcasts of the chamber's proceedings.[3] The content is focused on interviews with Canadian politicians, advocates, and commentators, with infrequent radio documentaries and a weekly "in-House panel" discussion featuring a rotating roster of CBC and external political journalists including Terry Milewski, Rosemary Barton, Ici RDI's Emmanuelle Latraverse, Joël-Denis Bellavance of La Presse, and pundit Tasha Kheiriddin.The Christmas episode is reserved for an annual holiday House Quiz, a game show-format political trivia competition featuring a panel of CBC journalists as competitors, each equipped with a different humorous noisemaker used to claim precedence in answering questions posed by the host about news stories from throughout the year.[4] The digital archive on the CBC's website includes selected segments from the program dating as far back as 1978.[5] Since then, it has been hosted by Stephen Boissonneault, Denise Rudnicki, Judy Morrison (1980s),[6] Jason Moscovitz (1990s),[7] Anthony Germain (2001–2006),[8] Kathleen Petty (2006–2011)[8][9] and Evan Solomon (2011–2015).
