The Agenda with Steve Paikin is the flagship current affairs program of TVOntario, Ontario’s public broadcaster. The show practises what anchor and senior editor Steve Paikin calls "long-form" journalism. Each hour-long program tackles no more than two topics, and often only one.

The show airs weekdays on TVO at 8 and 11 pm. Content is available on demand online at tvo.org and through mobile media.

The Agenda plans a similar exercise for the 2011 Ontario provincial election.
