Joining them will be five participants from their respective political parties:

- New Democratic Party of Canada – Angella MacEwen, Ottawa West-Nepean (Ontario)

Moderated by La Presse Bureau Chief Joel-Denis Bellavance, Canadian Press journalist Jordan Press and Toronto Star columnist Heather Scoffield, it will cover a wide range of issues related to housing and home affordability in Canada.
