Big Brother Canada 5 is the fifth season of the Canadian reality television series Big Brother Canada. It is based upon the Dutch series of the same name, which gained notoriety in 1999 and 2000. It was produced by Endemol USA, and Insight Productions. The season premiered on Global on March 15, 2017.
This season of the series saw 8 new HouseGuest compete against 8 HouseGuests from the prior edition who are deemed to need a second chance. These houseguests lived a house together with no communication with the outside world and constantly filmed during their time in the house. The HouseGuests competed in challenges for power and safety before voting each other out of the house. When only two HouseGuests remain, nine of previously evicted houseguests decide which of them will win the grand prize of $100,000, a 2017 Toyota 86, as well as a $30,000 home makeover from The Brick.[1] The runner-up receives a $20,000 cash prize.
The series ended after 69 days – the shortest full season to date by one day – on May 18, 2017, where returning houseguest and poker player Kevin Martin was crowned the winner over new houseguest and real estate broker Karen Singbeil.
