Not mentioned yet, but CBC Gem has been streaming the 2023 Global T20 Canada cricket tournament from Brampton (its first edition since 2019, which was split between Asian Television Network and TSN). The tournament final will air on CBC Television on August 6.

This is the second time that the CBC has flirted with cricket recently, with the Commonwealth Games doing so last year by virtue of it having a women's T20I tournament as a medal event. While this is not the first time cricket has been on FTA TV in Canada (Omni Television carrying the IPL as part of Sportsnet's rights to it), this I do believe is the first time a match will be carried on national broadcast TV in Canada.

Besides OMNI, it was also carried on regular Sportsnet and Sportsnet World. They stopped showing it because head of Sportsnet said most viewers were alreay accustomed to streaming it via non English languages and/or pirated streams.

This year, about one IPL match/day was available for free via a Rogers Sports Pak channel via Willow TV.

CBC SPORTS TO PROVIDE EXTENSIVE COVERAGE OF THE 2023 WORLD ATHLETICS CHAMPIONSHIPS, AUGUST 19-27

The good thing CBC is doing is airing the broadcast with the English commentators. Anything in the studio makes you reach for the fast forward button.

You don't like Donovan Bailey?

You don't like Donovan Bailey?

Haven't seen Bailey. Perdita Felicien and the other girl. We like to watch the whole session broadcast, but it appears some days have only a broadcast with studio cuts. Those are painful, frankly.

Bailey hasn't been bad from what I can recall, may have even been insightful. Can't say I've heard anything of value from the others.

The sound quality on CBC GEM from the ISU 2024 Skating world championship continues to be poor.

The music volume is low (just ambient?) and the volume for the commentators varies from normal to very loud and the overall quality is 'thin'.

It has been the same poor quality all season starting with the Grand Prix events.
