Unfortunately, there is no way to play Ogg streams through iTunes.
Installing XiphQT will add support for local files, but not streaming
radio. There's nothing we can do; it's a limitation of the iTunes
software. Please tell them you'd like this to work.

I can suggest the Songbird player from http://getsongbird.com/ or the
VLC player from http://videolan.org/ as an alternatives. The CBC
stream works fine in both of them.

Hope that helps, and sorry for the inconvenience.
