I thought the law in Canada is there is no reporting of results until all the polls close throughtout Canada.

Apparently, the law was changed so that, for the first time, there are no media blackouts. Elections.ca [official site for the Canadian government] will not report until after 10 pm when the last polls close but the media may report the results as they come in.

I think it was struck down in court. Elections Canada isn't reporting until 10 Eastern, but ATV/CTV promises results as soon as they get them.
