CBC Television local newscasts


CBC News produces a variety of local newscasts for CBC Television's owned-and-operated stations (O&Os) throughout Canada. On most stations, the local news operation is currently titled CBC [city/province name] News, such that (for example) the 6:00 p.m. newscast on CBLT-DT is named CBC Toronto News. However, there are variations to this naming convention for northern Canada and certain markets where CBC has historically been strong in local news.

Currently, most CBC O&Os produce either a full-hour or a 30-minute local newscast during the early evening on weeknights, which are titled accordingly. For example, CBLT-DT's newscasts are called CBC Toronto News. In addition, most stations air a late-night newscast for ten or thirty minutes at 11pm (immediately following the flagship network newscast The National), titled CBC [region name] News Late Night.

This schedule varies for some stations depending on available resources or local considerations. CBET-DT Windsor previously aired its 90-minute evening newscast at 5:30 p.m. until the revamping of CBC's local news operations in October 2015 (it now airs for 30 minutes beginning at 5:59 p.m.), while CBNT-DT St. John's formerly aired CBC News: Here & Now - Early Edition at 5:30pm Newfoundland Time until October 2015, followed by the hour-long CBC News: Here & Now at 6:00 p.m. NT.

Local evening newscasts are produced in all three Maritime provinces, but a single late-night newscast for the region is produced at CBHT-DT Halifax. Likewise, the Alberta stations in Calgary and Edmonton produce their own evening newscasts, but a single late-night provincial newscast is produced in Edmonton at CBXT-DT.
