CBCT-DT

CBC's general lineup is the closest Canada gets to a true PBS vibe, but with more hockey. The daytime block leans hard on lifestyle and talk, think Steven and Chris reruns, daytime game shows, but prime-time is where the Canadian content shines. Dramas like Heartland and comedies like Schitt's Creek (both CBC originals) anchor the schedule, though you'll also find British imports filling gaps. The National at 10pm remains the gold standard for Canadian news broadcasting, calm, thorough, and mercifully free of U.S.-style cable hysteria. Weekend mornings are for kids: CBC Kids block with shows like Paw Patrol and The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle. The station's local Toronto feed (CBCT-DT) sometimes breaks for local news inserts. It's not flashy, but it's reliable. If you want to watch CBCT-DT online, Tvivu makes it easy. General TV Canada doesn't get much more straightforward than this.
