West Block

About the show

The West Block with Tom Clark reverses the convention of political talk shows, speaking directly with Canadians in communities across the country and bringing their concerns to Ottawa for answers.

The Global journalists behind the West Block not only ask questions, but seek solutions. The end product is a show that doesn’t just follow the agenda, but helps set it.

We ask for your input on this — in fact, we need it.

What do you want to see on the show? What about government concerns you? We will deconstruct the key political issues and present them in clear, concise ways.

Host Tom Clark, chief political correspondent with Global National, brings with him one of the best resumes in the business — a veteran anchor, political and foreign correspondent, who last year was named one of the most influential journalists in Ottawa.

You can watch The West Block with Tom Clark on Global at 10 a.m. PT and MT, 11 a.m. CT and ET and noon AT. The show is repeated 10:30 p.m. CT, and 11:30 p.m. everywhere else.

***Times in Atlantic Canada will be jumping around a bit for the next few weeks: April 29 and May 6 at 1 p.m. ET, May 13 at 12:30 ET due to the PGA Players Championship weekend, May 20 and May 27 at 1 p.m. ET. ***
