Canadian political figures were interviewed by a panel of journalists in each episode.
In the early years of the program, the panel consisted of Ron Collister, Charles Lynch, and a visitor.
In 1974, Collister and Lynch were replaced by Doug Collins and Elizabeth Gray.
Guest politicians included Edgar Benson, Réal Caouette, Tommy Douglas, David Lewis, Peter Lougheed, Bryce Mackasey, Lester Pearson, Mitchell Sharp, Robert Stanfield and Pierre Trudeau.
Previously, the CBC conducted political interviews on Press Conference.
