A series of public conversations with leading public figures in politics and the arts at the newly-renovated National Arts Centre in Ottawa. Paul Wells, Maclean's senior writer and an award-winning author and television will host figures who are making the news for exclusive, one-on-one conversations. The format is simple: an hour of no-holds-barred conversation, including questions from the audience.

The next event will feature Jason Kenney, the new leader of Alberta’s United Conservative Party.

Future guests will include other party leaders, senior advisors to the Prime Minister, cabinet minister, provincial premiers and mayors, as well as leading figures from the world of arts and letters.

In partnership with the National Arts Centre and CPAC
