8.7 million Canadians watched men’s Olympic gold medal hockey game

Nearly nine million Canadians tuned in to watch the men’s gold-medal hockey game at the Milano-Cortina Olympics, marking it as the most-watched moment of the Games, though this is a decline from 15 million viewers during the 2014 Sochi Olympics. CBC reported that approximately 30.5 million Canadians, or 73% of the population, watched parts of the Olympics, with online content amassing 89 million streams. Viewership peaked during the hockey final and included significant numbers for other events such as women’s hockey and men’s curling.
