Ben Mulroney is taking the reins of Global News’ political affairs program, The West Block.
Global News says Mulroney will serve as interim host while Ottawa bureau chief Mercedes Stephenson takes parental leave.
The son of former prime minister Brian Mulroney begins his stint Sept. 14 when a 15th season launches on Global and streams live on StackTV.
Mulroney says he feels privileged to be part of the network’s flagship national political affairs program, which airs Sundays and repeats Sunday nights on Global and StackTV.
The longtime TV personality also hosts the nationally syndicated radio show, The Ben Mulroney Show, carried across Corus’ network of talk radio stations.
Mulroney is a former co-host of CTV’s Your Morning, Etalk and Canadian Idol.
