LETS GO TEAM CANADA!
Where can Candians watch the Olympics?
In Canada, the primary home for Olympic Games coverage is the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) – the national public broadcaster that holds the exclusive Canadian broadcast rights to the Olympics through at least 2032. You can watch marquee events like the opening and closing ceremonies and daily competition on CBC Television, which is available over-the-air with an antenna or through most cable and satellite packages. Extensive live and replay coverage is also provided across CBC’s broadcast schedule and on digital platforms operated by the broadcaster.
For streaming, Canadians can tune in free via CBC Gem, the broadcaster’s online streaming service, which offers live streams of Olympic events and on-demand highlights on computers, phones, and connected TV devices. CBC often supplements this with additional content through its Olympics-focused digital services and social channels.Â
As the Milano-Cortina Winter Olympics unfold, Canadians everywhere are cheering on our remarkable team with pride, passion, and that unmistakable red and white spirit – Go Canada Go! From the icy precision of figure skating to the high-octane speed of downhill skiing, Team Canada’s athletes bring heart, grit, and excellence to every event.
You can explore all the winter sports Canadians are competing in here, and check out the full roster of incredible Canadian Olympians representing our nation here. Whether it’s curling, hockey, snowboarding, or biathlon, each competitor carries the dreams of a country united behind them.
Behind every athlete’s Olympic moment is a whole community of supporters who helped shape their journey: families who’ve sacrificed so much, coaches who refine every technique, teachers who instilled discipline, and volunteers who build opportunities at the grassroots level. It’s this collective dedication – from local rinks to national stages – that makes Canada one of the greatest sporting nations on earth. So as we tune in, let’s celebrate not just the medals and milestones, but the enormous network of coaches, loved ones, and volunteers whose passion fuels our champions. Go Canada Go!Â
If you’re looking for something fun to do while you’re watching the Olympics — whether it’s just for you, the kids, or the whole family — there are plenty of winter or sports-themed puzzles, toys, and games that can turn the viewing experience into a hands-on activity. For example, winter-scene jigsaw puzzles featuring snowy mountains, ice rinks, and Olympic stadiums can be great for kids to work on during longer competition periods. Sports-themed board games or card games that center around racing, teamwork, or winter sports challenges can add a playful twist to commercial breaks or slower events.
You can even create your own Olympics bingo Examples: (Link 1) (Link 2) – have the kids mark off when they see certain things (like a snowboard trick, record-breaking moment, or specific country’s flag) – turning silent spectator time into an interactive family challenge. Toys like Indoor tabletop hockey games, silent balls, LEGO and Puzzles also keep little hands busy and engaged in the spirit of the Games. It’s a great way to balance screen time with creative play and make the Olympics a memorable, multi-sensory event in your household.
