CBC only care about ET.
I thought the CBC coverage of these ceremonies was quite poor. The sound was in and out. You could hardly hear the stadium announcers. Mansbridge did all the heavy lifting with the explanations and the history. MacLean was awful. He butchered his way through most of it getting the stories and most of the countries wrong.
I've watched a few minutes of the NBC coverage and so far they're doing better already explaining the performances how they were created.

EDIT: finished watching the NBC coverage and it was miles better than CBCs. Yes it was american-centric as usual but they explained everything and didn't miss any countries during the parade and listed the flag bearers on the screen.
Having said that.. cbc.ca is amazing. So many live streams and you can pick and choose what events you want to watch. For all you beach volleyball fans, there's a few matches going on right now you can specifically watch.
