It is similar for all time zones for the seamless programming. The best is having all the timeshifter and french channels so there is never any break from the Olympics!

I will have to catch up on the news after the games are over.

You probably know but, here in British Columbia, the live programming on the CTV goes until 1500h, then followed by three hours of highlights and review which is basically the primetime show until 1800h.

The Mountain time zone goes live until 1600h and then two hours of highlights and review. Central viewers go live until 1700h with one hour of review.

Everyone gets their one hour of local news at 1800h local and then the primetime show until 2300h followed by the national and local news until midnight. The exception is for the Atlantic and Newfoundland timezones which are in sync with eastern programming times during the Olympics.

The primetime show in the eastern timezone is repeated from midnight to four and after four it is live programming. Central timezone, primetime is repeated for only three hours from midnight to three and then live. Less repeating of primetime the further west you go.
