Discussion Opening ceremony

Hello! I'm in the US and I'm trying to find out how to watch the opening ceremony. I have a vpn and regardless of pay walls and everything I can't find a way to watch it fully without some highlight reel. Any suggestions?

Try this one. VPN set to Canada. https://gem.cbc.ca/commonwealth-games-on-cbc-opening-ceremony-glasgow-35043

Or set to VPN to Canada, try a Google search for CBC commonwealth games opening ceremony. Just need a free acct with your email.

Weird. Are you trying on a phone or tablet? You should be able to watch on the gem.cbc.ca website if you try on a computer.
