CBNT is the television call sign for the CBC's television station in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador. CBNT's terrestrial signal is on channel 8, while the cable system in St. John's carries the station on channel 3. CBNT also has an auxiliary transmitter in St. John's broadcasting on channel 12 under the callsign CBNT-42.

CBNT's schedule is the same as that of CBHT, with the exception of its local newscast, the restored CBC News: Here and Now, anchored in St. John's by Debbie Cooper and Jonathan Crowe. The hour-long Here and Now is aired in place of the half-hour CBC News at Six programs aired in most regions. To make room for the extra half hour, CBNT does not air programming that normally airs at 4:00 P.M. in the rest of the country.

Probably one of the longest-running television shows in Newfoundland and Labrador is Land and Sea, having been broadcast since 1964. Other CBC programs produced in Newfoundland and Labrador include Reach for the Top, As Loved Our Fathers, Soundings, Yarns from Pigeon Inlet, and Skipper and Company, just to name a few.

CBNT went on the air on October 1, 1964, as previous CBC affiliate CJON switched networks to CTV.
