Warner Troyer hosts this public affairs program examining the views of Prime Minister Pierre Elliott Trudeau prior to the 1968 federal election campaign. Footage includes: Trudeau's arrival, accompanied by a police escort, at Toronto's new City Hall, where he answers questions from a panel of journalists and an assembled audience of voters. Larry Zolf, Norman DePoe and Troyer form the panel. Trudeau responds with characteristic humour to questions of topics such as: the length of the election campaign; the heckling he received in Quebec over the issue of separatism; the media's portrayal of him; his priorities if re-elected; female politicians; programs for Indians; federal aid for student education; a current bill dealing with hate propaganda; and allegations by Canadian intelligence sources that he is a socialist. Troyer's summary is followed by clips of Trudeau, Opposition Leader Robert Stanfield, and Leader of the New Democratic Party of Canada Tommy Douglas. <30mn>
