As CBC continues to celebrate its 75th birthday, they have also started to revamp the organization, including their websites. This week they re-launched CBCSports.ca, adding better navigation, up-to-the-minute sports news, and live and on-demand video streaming, but also additional ways for advertisers to reach the coveted sports audience in more and better ways.

“With so many new features on CBCSports.ca, the opportunities for engagement really have multiplied,” said Alan Dark, Executive Director, CBC’s The Revenue Group. “Streaming video, news and blogs will give our advertisers even more ways of reaching and enabling dialogue with our consumers, and we’re excited to help them do that.”
