Power Play with Tom Clark

Power Play with Tom Clark takes a fresh look at politics, politicians and plays for power. Weekdays at 5pm ET / 8pm PT

Power Play is the political show of record for Canadians, complete with a new look and fresh new take on political reporting. Every day from Monday to Friday, Clark cuts through the rhetoric and highlights the people and players that dominate the political scene in Canada.

Online, at CTV.ca, viewers can catch episodes they've missed on the CTV Video Player.

"Working on POWER PLAY is a fantastic new adventure for me," said Tom Clark. "The political scene in Ottawa is such a fascinating and dramatic place and this new show will illustrate just how exciting it is on Parliament Hill."

In addition to delivering the breaking news from Parliament Hill that political junkies have come to expect from CTV Newsnet, Power Play with Tom Clark has numerous segments including "Hill to Hill." This  feature expands on Clark's experience as CTV's Washington Bureau Chief with an in-depth look at Canada-U.S. relations. Currently no other television show in Canada provides regular in-depth coverage of this critical issue.
