Yep, as long as your TV has a built in HDTV tuner and you can get the signal it should work.

Just plug the antenna in and re-scan your channels. CBC comes up as channel 9.1

And over the air HDTV quality is the best out there, since there's less compression than with cable or satellite.

So ironically, the highest picture quality is now available with rabbit ears. Of course, the downside is there's only a few channels.
