The Agenda With Steve Paikin . . . .

Having recently discovered The Agenda with Steve Paikin has been a rewarding and informative experience for me as someone immigrating to Canada. The program usually has an excellent panel of guests to discuss topics of interest to all Canadians.


Two recently rebroadcast episodes - "How Many Roads to Multiculturalism" and "Dual Citizenship" - were particularly good. They examined the differences and similarities in the many varied peoples who immigrate to Canada, and the pluses and minuses of dual citizenship.

As we don't get TVOntario broadcasts here in Florida - big surprise, eh? - the availability of the program via video podcast is welcomed. Until we are permanently in Vancouver our television reception is by over-the-air antenna only. Does anyone know if the programming is available on a cable channel there?

Check it out, if you have not already done so . . . .

Yes, we are finding Vancouver to our liking, and I hope you do, too.

Just checked out your blog - Love the template :)!

Looks like I may need to check back regularly, as you sound like one of "us" . . . .

Thanks for checking in, Michael.

Hello. I'm an Associate Producer on The Agenda with Steve Paikin. I'm not too sure if the show is available on cable in Vancouver, but keep checking in to our website. We're hoping to make it even better and even more interactive.
Glad you enjoy the show, season two begins September 4th, and good luck with your move to the beautiful West Coast!
