The fifth season of MasterChef Canada originally aired on April 3, 2018, on CTV and concluded on June 19. Filming began in September 2017 and ended in November 2017. Sherwood Park resident Beccy Stables (originally from Grimsby, England) won the trophy, title and $100,000 prize money.[1] At the age of 19, Stables became the youngest winner in the history of MasterChef Canada, a title she currently holds, and tied the record for being the youngest contestant to appear and compete on the show. Following her victory, she moved to Kelowna, British Columbia, and currently runs a baking website called dessertclub.[2][3] Stables also guest-starred in an episode of the sixth season. This season aired on June 26, 2018, on TLC in India.[4][5]
