The station moved into new studios in 2004, uniting all of CBC/Radio-Canada's staff in Quebec City.{{cite web | title = The New Maison de CBC/Radio-Canada in Quebec City is Officially Open for Business | url = http://www.cbc.radio-canada.ca/newsreleases/20040307.shtml | accessdate = December 17, 2007 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20070921155833/http://www.cbc.radio-canada.ca/newsreleases/20040307.shtml | archive-date = September 21, 2007 | url-status = dead }}

For the network, the station produces {{lang|fr|La semaine verte}}, an hour-long weekly newsmagazine about agriculture and rural life,{{cite web | title = Programming: La semaine verte | url = http://ici.radio-canada.ca/tele/la-semaine-verte/2014-2015/}} and {{lang|fr|Second regard}}, a half-hour program exploring religion and spirituality.{{cite web | title = Programming: Second regard | url = http://advertising.radio-canada.ca/A2007/VEng/02_Radio-Canada/Emissions/second_regard.asp | accessdate = December 17, 2007 | archive-url = https://wayback.archive-it.org/all/20110706202120/https://publicite.radio-canada.ca/b2bfcs/content/fcscontent.aspx%3Fpageid=fcscontent&locale=4105 | archive-date = July 6, 2011 | url-status = dead }}

For local programming, an evening newscast under the title {{lang|fr|Le Téléjournal/Québec}}, airs weekdays at 6 p.m.; a weekday noon newscast, {{lang|fr|Le Téléjournal midi/Québec et Est du Québec}}, is shared with Radio-Canada's group of stations in Eastern Quebec.

After the analogue-to-digital conversion which took place on August 31, 2011, CBVT-DT stayed at its pre-transition position on channel 12, allowing CBVE-TV, a repeater of CBMT-DT Montreal, to move from channel 5 to channel 11. Because of potential interference from CFCF-DT in Montreal (which moved its digital signal to channel 12 on the transition date) and reception problems, CBVT-DT moved to channel 25 in December 2011.{{Cite web |url=http://cbc.radio-canada.ca/dtv/Quebec_City_Radio-Canada.shtml |title=Télévision de Radio-Canada Quebec City (CBVT-TV) |access-date=September 14, 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120321192958/http://cbc.radio-canada.ca/dtv/Quebec_City_Radio-Canada.shtml |archive-date=March 21, 2012 |url-status=dead }} Channel 25 was previously used by CIVQ-DT, a local digital repeater of Télé-Québec.

CBVT had seven analogue television rebroadcasters in the communities near Quebec City.

Due to federal funding reductions to the CBC, in April 2012, the CBC responded with substantial budget cuts, which included shutting down CBC's and Radio-Canada's remaining analogue transmitters on July 31, 2012.[http://cbc.radio-canada.ca/en/media-centre/2012/04/04/ Speaking notes for Hubert T. Lacroix regarding measures announced in the context of the Deficit Reduction Action Plan] None of CBC or Radio-Canada's television re-transmitters were converted to digital.

CBVT's main transmitter site for Quebec City is located at Mount Bélair.
