Big Brother Canada 9 is the ninth season of the Canadian reality television series Big Brother Canada. It is based on the Dutch series of the same name, which gained notoriety in 1999 and 2000. Arisa Cox returned as the host for the series as well as her new role as executive producer.[1] The season premiered with a two-night premiere on March 3–4, 2021, on Global.[2]

This season revolved around 14 strangers (known as HouseGuests) living in a house together while being constantly filmed and having no communication with the outside world as they competed to be the last HouseGuest remaining. Each week, the HouseGuests competed in challenges for power and safety before voting each other out of the house. When only two HouseGuests remain, a Jury of previously evicted Houseguests decided which finalist won the grand prize of a $110,000 cash prize (consisting of the base prize of $100,000 with an additional $10,000 provided by sponsor Sunlight), $10,000 worth of grills and grilling accessories from Weber, and a vacation for two from Expedia. The runner-up wins $20,000. A new prize for "Canada's Favourite Houseguest" was also introduced this season, where the Canadian public voted for the recipient of a $10,000 prize.

After 69 days, the season ended on May 6, 2021, when Tychon Carter-Newman beat Breydon White in a 6-1 vote. Carter-Newman is the first Black HouseGuest to win a season of Big Brother Canada, and the second (after Celebrity Big Brother 2 winner Tamar Braxton) to win a season of Big Brother in North America.

Twists[edit]

For the first time in Big Brother Canada, the HouseGuests will compete in two teams (known as Team Destiny & Team Defender). The teams were selected by Team Captains determined by Canada's Vote, which opened as the cast was revealed. The Captains are also awarded immunity for the first week.[3] For the duration of the teams phase the Head of Household would win immunity for their entire team. The draft for the teams was as follows:[4]

Round Team Defender Team Destiny
Captain Kiefer Tina
1 Jedson Tychon
2 Latoya Tera
3 Josh Kyle
4 Julie Beth
5 Rohan Victoria
6 Breydon Austin

HouseGuests[edit]

The HouseGuests' images and profiles were released on Wednesday, February 24, 2021.[5] Initially announced HouseGuest Ethan Quance was later removed when significant concerns were brought to the attention of production.[6] He was replaced by Kyle Moore.[7]

Production[edit]

Development[edit]

Following the cancellation of the eighth season due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the future of the show was uncertain, however on July 13, 2020, Big Brother Canada was renewed for a ninth season. It was also announced that Arisa Cox would return as host and would assume the role of executive producer for the new season.[8] On February 17, 2021, Global announced that the season will start airing with a two-night premiere on March 3–4, 2021.[2]

Casting[edit]

Kassting Inc. returned to cast the ninth season. On August 10, 2020, casting opened online.[9]

Filming[edit]

Filming started on February 27, 2021, without a live audience for the premiere episode for the first time in Big Brother Canada history due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

Release[edit]

The free 24/7 live feeds, hosted on Big Brother Canada's website, started on March 4 after the first eviction episode. A tribute to Big Brother Canada 4 HouseGuest Nikki Grahame aired on the 18th episode following her passing.[10]

House design[edit]

On February 22, 2021, Global released an image of the living room wall. The theme for the season was confirmed to be post-apocalyptic.[11] The full house design was revealed on March 1,[12] with most of the house being similar to the season 8 superhero themed house, but with decorative fake vines and overgrowth covering large portions of the house. The bathroom, the HoH bedroom the outdoor spa area, and the Expedia-themed lounge room remained the same as last season. Of the few rooms to be completely redesigned was the main bedrooms, which were redecorated to correspond the theme of each team. The swamp themed Have-Not room was replaced by a ball-pit. Additionally, there was no nomination room, with the space normally taken by the nomination room being used as a OLG themed games room.

Summary[edit]

On Day 1, fourteen HouseGuests entered the post-apocalyptic "Big Brother Canada" House. As the first twist of the season, Kiefer and Tina were selected by Canada to enter the House first. They were able to watch the rest of the HouseGuests enter the game and interact for the first few minutes. Kiefer, Tina, and the rest of the House later learned they would play the game in two teams, with Kiefer and Tina dividing the House as team captains. Tina, Tychon, Tera, Kyle, Beth, Victoria, and Austin became Team Destiny. Kiefer, Jedson, Latoya, Josh, Julie, Rohan, and Breydon were dubbed Team Defender. The HouseGuests then learned of the next twist. The teams would compete in a head-to-head safety competition. The winning team would be safe and earn a feast, while the entirety of the losing team would face the first eviction and be on slop for the night. The team captains would be safe regardless of the result. The HouseGuests then took part in the Drop In the Bucket Safety competition. In this competition, everyone would hold a bucket of sludge correspondent to their measurements. Throughout the competition, the team captains can add sludge to an individual on the opposing team to make it heavier. If a HouseGuest drops their bucket, they will be eliminated. The last HouseGuest standing will be the winner, earning safety for their team. Victoria was the winner, saving Team Destiny for the week. Austin, Breydon, and Julie formed "The Dolls" alliance. In addition, Beth, Jedson, Kiefer, Latoya, Tina, and Tychon formed "The Sunsetters" alliance. Latoya campaigned to evict Julie for seeming like a loud mouth, while Josh wanted to evict Rohan for being a threat. Just before the vote, Arisa announced all of the HouseGuests, except the winning captain Tina, would vote to evict. On Day 6, Julie was evicted by a 11-2-0-0-0-0 vote, with Julie and Victoria voting to evict Josh.

Following Julie's eviction, the HouseGuests took aim in the Arch Rivals Head of Household competition. In this competition, HouseGuests must balance a ball in their bow and arrow. When the horn sounds during the competition, they will add another ball to their bow. If they drop any of their balls, they will be eliminated. The last HouseGuest standing will be the new Head of Household, and their team will be safe for the week. Austin was the winner, and Team Destiny was safe for the week. Big Brother presented the teams with a food dilemma. They had the opportunity to earn a feast of peanut butter and jelly, cookies, and milk for their team for the week. Each team would vote to either share the feast with the other team or steal it for themselves. If both teams share, they will share the feast. If one team steals, they will earn a luxury dinner, a week of groceries, and an advantage in the Power of Veto competition, while the team that shared will be on slop for the week. If both teams steal, the entire House will be on slop for the week. Both teams decided to share. On Day 7, Austin nominated Josh and Kiefer for eviction, with Josh as the target. On Day 8, Josh and Kiefer, as well as Victoria, Tera, and Tina, balanced in the Don't Upset the Apple Cart Power of Veto competition. In this competition, HouseGuests must steer their wheelbarrow down the winding track, placing five apples on their wheelbarrow every time they reach the end. If an apple hits the ground, it is out of play. They have 30 minutes to stack apples, but may lock in their score early if they feel they have enough to win. The HouseGuest who places the most apples on their wheelbarrow will win the Power of Veto. Kiefer was the winner. On Day 10, Kiefer used the Power of Veto on himself, and Austin named Rohan as the replacement nominee. On Day 13, Josh was evicted by a 10-0 vote. Arisa then announced to the HouseGuests that the teams were officially disbanded, and everyone would play as individuals.

Following Josh's eviction, the HouseGuests faced off in the Dream to the Max Head of Household competition. In this competition, HouseGuests participated in a series of head-to-head matches. In each round, competitors will be shown a photo of a dream scenario. Arisa will then read them a statement about the scenario, the HouseGuest must determine whether that statement is true or false. The first person to answer correctly will advance and eliminate their opponent. However, if they answer incorrectly, they will be eliminated and their opponent will advance. The HouseGuest who survives the match will select the next two HouseGuests to face off. The last HouseGuest standing will be the new Head of Household, as well as earn a lottery gift card from OLG and Lotto Max. Victoria was the winner. As Head of Household, Victoria had to name four HouseGuests to be Have-Nots for the week. Austin, Breydon, Kyle, and Rohan became Have-Nots for the week. Latoya became a target for trying to stage a last-minute flip against Rohan last week. Victoria also felt threatened by Kiefer after he tried to blame the flip on her. Austin, Breydon, and Victoria formed the "Bossy Glossies" alliance. On Day 14, Victoria nominated Kiefer and Latoya for eviction, with Latoya as the target. In order to counteract the other side of the House, Austin, Breydon, Kyle, Rohan, and Victoria formed the "Oddballs" alliance. On Day 15, Kiefer and Latoya, alongside Tychon, Jedson, and Austin, were puzzled in the Instant Crossword Power of Veto competition, sponsored by OLG. In this competition, HouseGuests must scratch off their board to reveal clues to solve their crossword, dropping letter tiles and blank tiles in the appropriate slot. If they drop a tile in the wrong spot, they must restart their crossword in order to fix it. The first HouseGuest to correctly complete their crossword will win the Power of Veto. Jedson was the winner. The HouseGuests learned of the "Skip the Slop" vote to save a Have-Not, earning them a dinner from "Skip the Dishes" and canceling their Have-Not status for the rest of the week. Canada voted for Breydon. While Jedson wanted to save an alliance member, Victoria alluded that Beth or Tychon would be the replacement nominee to dissuade him from using it. On Day 17, Jedson decided not to use the Power of Veto. On Day 18, the HouseGuests played a game of "Big Brother Instant Bingo". Divided into two teams, HouseGuests in turn would scratch a space off their bingo card, revealing a dare. If they complete their dare, they earn a ball to complete their card. The first team to complete their card will earn a pizza party and will select a member of the losing team to become a bingo ball for the rest of the week. The team of Austin, Beth, Kiefer, Rohan, Tera, and Tychon won the pizza party, and Breydon became a bingo ball for the rest of the week. Day 20, Latoya was evicted by a 6-3 vote, with Beth, Jedson, and Tychon voting to evict Kiefer.

Following Latoya's eviction, the HouseGuests fired in the Seniors Disc-count Head of Household competition. In this competition, each HouseGuest will take one shot on the shuffleboard table, aiming to achieve the highest score. If their disc falls off the table, they will receive a zero. The HouseGuest with the highest score will be the new Head of Household. Kiefer was the winner. As the new Head of Household, Kiefer was required to name four Have-Nots. Rohan, Tera, Tina, and Victoria became Have-Nots for the week. Kiefer hoped to split up a duo in the House, and also felt threatened after being confronted by Kyle and Rohan. On Day 21, Kiefer nominated Kyle and Rohan for eviction, with Rohan as the target. Beth, Jedson, and Tychon formed "The Sauce" alliance. On Day 22, Kyle and Rohan, next to Beth, Jedson, and Austin, burrowed in the Mole in One Power of Veto competition. In this competition, HouseGuests must transfer balls across their playing field using only their breath. They must maneuver the course by popping their head through the various holes to control the balls. The first HouseGuest to get ten balls in their tube will win the Power of Veto. Rohan was the winner. Rohan won the "Skip the Slop" vote, canceling his Have-Not status and earning a meal from "Skip the Dishes". Despite promising her safety, Kiefer considered nominating Austin due to her partnership with Breydon. On Day 24, Rohan used the Power of Veto on himself, and Kiefer named Austin as the replacement nominee. On Day 27, Kyle was evicted by a 7-1 vote, with Rohan voting to evict Austin.

Following Kyle's eviction, the HouseGuests rocked in the Invisible Head of Household competition. In this competition, HouseGuests were sequestered in booths with clicker counters. Over time, the conveyor belt above them will drop rocks into the crater. HouseGuests must keep track of how many rocks drop. They will also be made offers to look away from the conveyor belt, such as a feast if three people look away, a Slop Pass for the person who looks away the longest, and gave the person with the worst count the ability to drop out of the competition to earn a letter from home. The HouseGuest closest to the correct count will be the new Head of Household. In addition, the winner will remain anonymous, with no obligation to reveal their status. They will make their nominations in secret, are eligible to be a Have-Not, play in the week's Power of Veto competition if drawn, and play in next week's Head of Household competition. Tina earned the letter from home, while Victoria earned the slop pass. Victoria also became the invisible Head of Household. As Head of Household, Victoria had to anonymously name four Have-Nots for the week. Austin, Breydon, Kiefer, and Victoria became Have-Nots for the week. Despite being anonymous, Victoria felt caught between the "Oddballs" and her desire to work with Tychon and Jedson, as well as feeling abandoned by the "Bossy Glossies". On Day 28, Victoria anonymously nominated Austin and Breydon for eviction. On Day 29, Austin and Breydon, up against Victoria, Tychon, and Rohan, built in the BBCAN Condos Power of Veto competition. In this competition, HouseGuests must place their I-beams to create a path across the construction site. They must then transfer their condo pieces one at a time across the site. The first HouseGuest to complete their condo puzzle will win the Power of Veto. Rohan was the winner. On Day 31, Rohan decided not to use the Power of Veto. On Day 33, the Haves were given the task to cook a spaghetti lunch, make a huge mess, and force the Have-Nots to clean it up. The Have-Nots completed their task, earned a meal, and their Have-Not status ended. On Day 34, Austin was evicted by a 7-0 vote.

Following Austin’s eviction, the HouseGuests counted the days in the BB Calendar Head of Household competition. In this competition, HouseGuests were asked a series of questions based on the new “Big Brother” calendar they were shown the night before. An incorrect answer resulted in elimination. The last HouseGuest standing will be the new Head of Household. Beth was the winner. As the new Head of Household, Beth was required to name four Have-Nots for the week. Breydon, Rohan, Tera, and Tina became Have-Nots for the week. On Day 35, Beth nominated Rohan and Tera for eviction, with the plan to backdoor Victoria. Canada participated in the "Skip the Slop" vote to save a Have-Not, earning them a dinner from "Skip the Dishes" and canceling their Have-Not status for the rest of the week. Canada voted for Rohan. On Day 36, Rohan and Tera, beside Breydon, Tina, and Tychon, flipped in the Backyard Barbecue Party Power of Veto competition, sponsored by “Weber”. In this competition, HouseGuests must open their grill and memorize the layout of their food. They must then toss their corn into their cornhole, toss their pineapple onto the skewer, and flip their hot dogs into their bun. They can then use their spatula to launch their food onto their grate. They must then rearrange their food on the grill exactly how it was at the beginning of the competition. The HouseGuest who correctly places the most food on their grill in the fastest time will win the Power of Veto, as well as a barbecue grill from “Weber”. Rohan was the winner. On Day 38, Rohan took himself off the block, and Beth named Victoria as the replacement nominee. On Day 41, Victoria was evicted by a 6-0 vote. She became the first member of the jury. Arisa then informed the HouseGuests of the Double Eviction. The HouseGuests immediately recollected in the Before or After Head of Household competition. In this competition, HouseGuests had to determine if one event took place before or after another event in the House. Each correct answer gave them one point. The HouseGuest with the most points after five questions will be the new Head of Household. Kiefer was the winner. He immediately nominated Breydon and Rohan for eviction. Breydon and Rohan, plus Beth, Tina, and Tychon, jockeyed in the Stone Cold Veto Power of Veto competition. In this competition, HouseGuests must maneuver their sword through their table maze. The first HouseGuest to get their sword through their maze will win the Power of Veto. Tychon was the winner. At the Veto Meeting, Tychon decided not to use the Power of Veto. On Day 41, Rohan was evicted by a 5-0 vote. He became the second member of the jury.

Following Victoria and Rohan’s evictions, the HouseGuests blitzed in the Ball Pit Blitz Head of Household competition. In this competition, HouseGuests must race into the ball pit in the Have-Not room, in search of white balls amongst the pile. They must then take a maximum of five white balls to the backyard and place them in their arrow. Each white ball they place in their arrow will give them one point. In addition, there are white balls with X’s on them. HouseGuests can collect those balls and place them in an opponent’s tube. Each ball with an X they receive will deduct one point from the HouseGuest’s score. The HouseGuest with the most points after twenty minutes will be the new Head of Household. Jedson was the winner. On Day 42, Jedson nominated Tera and Tina for eviction. On Day 43, Tera, Tina, Beth, Kiefer, and Tychon ticked in the TikTok Moments Power of Veto competition, sponsored by TikTok. The HouseGuests participated in this competition based on the TikToks they saw the day before. In the first part of the competition, they must stack a series of blocks with symbols on them in the correct order. However, they will be blindfolded and must identify the blocks only using their sense of touch. The first three HouseGuests to properly stack their blocks will continue to the second round. Tera, Tina, and Beth advanced to round two. In the second part of the competition, HouseGuests must recreate a slop recipe by searching for number cards in a big slop bowl, as well as converting their measurements to metric when completing the recipe. The first two HouseGuests to complete the recipe will continue to the final round. Tera and Tina advanced to the final round. In the final round, HouseGuests must tilt six discs down their staircase. They must then bounce their ping pong ball down the stairs from disc to disc, aiming to land their ball in their cup. The first HouseGuest to land their ball in the cup will win the Power of Veto. Tera was the winner. Needing a replacement nominee, Jedson debated whether to nominate outsider Breydon or to betray the “Sunsetters” by backdooring Kiefer as a big competitor. On Day 44, the HouseGuests were given the task to play a game of hide-and-seek. As the competition winners, Jedson and Tera were the seekers. The HouseGuests were given 100 seconds to hide. The last HouseGuest found will earn the right to make one HouseGuest sleep in the ball pit for the rest of the week. Beth was the last one found, and she chose Tychon to sleep in the ball pit. On Day 45, Tera used the Power of Veto on herself, and Jedson named Kiefer as the replacement nominee. On Day 46, the HouseGuests were given the task to eat a series of seven peppers, increasing in intensity. Each HouseGuest must eat one pepper. If they eat all of the peppers, they will earn a reward. They completed their task and earned a party. Despite originally being the target, Kiefer began to make inroads with “The Sauce”, pledging loyalty to their alliance. In addition, “The Sauce” began to fear Tera and Tina as a duo. On Day 48, Tina was evicted by a 3-1 vote, with Tera voting to evict Kiefer. She became the third member of the jury.

Following Tina’s eviction, the HouseGuests were quizzed in The Unauthorized History of BBCAN9 Head of Household competition. In this competition, HouseGuests were read excerpts from an audiobook read by evicted HouseGuests from the previous night. They must identify who said each excerpt. Each correct answer gave them one point. The HouseGuest with the most points after seven questions will be the new Head of Household. Tera was the winner. As the new Head of Household, Tera was required to name three Have-Nots for the week. Beth, Jedson, and Tychon became Have-Nots. Determined to split up “The Sauce”, Tera made a deal with Breydon and Kiefer to protect one another moving forward. On Day 49, Tera nominated Beth and Jedson for eviction, with Jedson as the target. On Day 50, everyone except Tera ventured in the Adventures with Expedia Power of Veto competition, sponsored by “Expedia”. In this competition, HouseGuests listened to a series of clues from their loved ones describing specific pieces of luggage. They had to find the correct bags, and place them in their car. They then had to slide the barriers surrounding their car so they can slide their car through the puzzle. Finally, HouseGuests must solve a puzzle based on the wall signs in the Expedia room. The HouseGuest to complete the tasks in the fastest time will win the Power of Veto, as well as a once-in-a-lifetime trip for two from “Expedia”. Jedson was the winner. On Day 51, Canada once again participated in the "Skip the Slop" vote to save a Have-Not, earning them a dinner from "Skip the Dishes" and canceling their Have-Not status for the rest of the week. Canada voted for Tychon. Kiefer formulated a plan to convince Jedson to keep himself on the block, veto Beth instead, and nominate Breydon as a fake target, but blindside Jedson on eviction night. On Day 52, Jedson fell for the plot and used the Power of Veto on Beth, and Tera nominated Breydon as the replacement nominee. On Day 55, Jedson was evicted by 3-0 vote. However, as he was evicted, he secretly learned he would have a chance to return to the game and was relocated to the Head of Household room. Arisa then informed the HouseGuests of the Double Eviction. The HouseGuests then recalled in the Say What Now? Head of Household competition. In this competition, HouseGuests were shown a series of clips showing events of the season. The HouseGuests must identify which day each event took place. However, the clips were dubbed with alternate audio. Each correct answer gave them one point. The HouseGuest with the most points after six questions will be the new Head of Household. Tychon was the winner. He immediately nominated Beth and Tera for eviction. The HouseGuests later tangled in the Comb Free Power of Veto competition. In this competition, HouseGuests will be connected to a rope strung and tied through a hair curler. They must maneuver themselves through their curler, loosening and untangling their rope as they go. The first HouseGuest to untangle themselves from their curler and hit their button will win the Power of Veto. Breydon was the winner. At the Veto Meeting, Breydon decided not to use the Power of Veto. On Day 55, Tera was evicted by a 2-0 vote. Arisa then dropped the bomb on the HouseGuests that the night was actually a Fake Double Eviction. She revealed the night’s evictees, Jedson and Tera, would battle in a head-to-head buyback competition, with the loser officially joining the jury and the winner returning to the game with a second life. Jedson and Tera then dueled in the Heads Will Roll Buyback competition. In this competition, HouseGuests must roll their balls up their ramp, aiming to land them on the top ledge. The first HouseGuest to land and keep all three of their balls on the ledge will win the competition and return to the House. Tera was the winner, returning to the game. Jedson was officially evicted, and he became the fourth member of the jury.

Following Tera’s return, the HouseGuests betted in the All In To Win Head of Household competition. In this competition, each HouseGuest started with ten chips. In each round, Tychon will spin the wheel to land on a trivia category. Based on the category, HouseGuests can bet up to five chips. If they answer correctly, they double their bet. If they answer incorrectly, they lose their bet. On the final question, HouseGuests can bet any amount of chips they want. The HouseGuest with the most chips after seven questions will be the new Head of Household. Breydon was the winner. As the new Head of Household, Breydon was required to name two Have-Nots for the week. Beth and Kiefer became Have-Nots for the week. On Day 56, Breydon nominated Beth and Tera for eviction, with Beth as the target. On Day 57, the HouseGuests tilted in the On Tilt Power of Veto competition. In this competition, HouseGuests must drop a ball into their pinball table, run down to the bottom as it bounces off the flippers, catch it, and place it back into the table at the top. When the lights on their pinball table flash, HouseGuests must add another ball, making it more difficult. They may only have one ball in their hand at a time. If a ball hits the ground, they will be eliminated. The last HouseGuest standing will win the Power of Veto. Breydon was the winner. On Day 58, the HouseGuests received a pool party with food and drinks to celebrate making the final five. On Day 59, Breydon decided not to use the Power of Veto. Canada once again participated in the "Skip the Slop" vote to save a Have-Not, earning them a dinner from "Skip the Dishes" and canceling their Have-Not status for the rest of the week. Canada voted for Kiefer. On Day 60, Beth and Kiefer were given a task. They must spend the night in the backyard, counting the number of raccoons that appear throughout the night. If their count is within five of the correct amount, they will earn a barbecue party courtesy of “Weber”. However, the other HouseGuests were also given the secret mission to distract Beth and Kiefer to mess up their count. If they can get Beth and Kiefer to guess incorrectly, they will earn the party instead. Beth and Kiefer counted correctly, and the entire House earned the party. On Day 62, Beth was evicted by a 2-0 vote. She became the fifth member of the jury.

Following Beth’s eviction, the HouseGuests sought a spot in the final three in the Buzzer Beater Head of Household competition. In this competition, HouseGuests will watch the monitors as it slowly reveals a series of cards with HouseGuests’ faces on them, all of whom played in a Power of Veto competition together. They must buzz in and answer which HouseGuest was evicted right after that Power of Veto competition was played. If they are correct, they will earn one point. If they are incorrect, the other players will have a chance to answer. The HouseGuest with the most points after seven questions will be the new Head of Household. Tychon was the winner. On Day 62, the HouseGuests were surprised with the “BBCAN Awards”. The HouseGuests were given a gala makeover and watched memorable moments from the season in the ball pit. On Day 63, Tychon nominated Kiefer and Tera for eviction. On Day 63, the HouseGuests coded in the Code Veto final Power of Veto competition. In this competition, players must search the office using keys, filing cabinets, and a black light to find a series of photos of the HouseGuests. They must then place the photos to correspond with a series of clues regarding season events. After completing the puzzle, they will change into their superhero outfits for the second part of the competition. HouseGuests must memorize the colored numbers on the brick wall and break through it. They must then input the numbers on the corresponding colored dials. The HouseGuest who inputs their final code in the fastest time will win the final Power of Veto of the season. Tera was the winner. At the Veto Meeting, Tera used the Power of Veto on herself, and Breydon was automatically named the replacement nominee. On Day 64, Tera cast the sole vote to evict Kiefer. He became the sixth member of the jury.

Notes[edit]

  • ^Note 1 :   When the cast was revealed, voting opened for Canada to vote for two Team Captains. Kiefer and Tina were voted captains and chose their teams. The captains were also given immunity from the first eviction.
  • ^Note 2 :   On Night 1, the HouseGuests competed in a team competition. The winning team won immunity from the first eviction, while the members of the losing team (excluding their captain) were all nominated for the first eviction. Since there were six nominees, all nominees voted. As the winning captain, Tina would only vote in the event of a tie.
  • ^Note 3 :   This week, the Head of Household was invisible. The winner of the HoH competition would not be announced to the HouseGuests, and their nominations would be made in secret. Additionally, to disguise the Invisible HoH, they were eligible to compete for the Power of Veto, and could compete the following week to be HoH; however, they were also eligible to be a Have-Not, and did not have access to the HoH Suite.
  • ^Note 4 : This week was a double eviction week. Following the first eviction, the remaining HouseGuests played a week's worth of games, including HoH and Veto competitions and Nomination, Veto and Eviction ceremonies, during the remainder of the live show, culminating in a second eviction for the night.
  • ^Note 5 : This week was a fake double eviction night. Following the first eviction, the remaining HouseGuests played a week's worth of games, including HoH and PoV competitions, and Nomination, Veto, and Eviction ceremonies, during the remainder of the live show, culminating in two HouseGuests being voted out. HouseGuests who were voted out (Jedson & Tera) were secretly moved to the HoH suite until the end of the night when the pair competed in a competition to determine which of the two would be evicted. Tera won the competition, evicting Jedson.
  • ^Note 6 : During the finale, the Jury voted for which finalist should win Big Brother Canada 9.

Controversies[edit]

Ethan Quance[edit]

@BigBrotherCA

Today, Global TV and Insight Productions were made aware of some significant concerns regarding an individual who has been announced as part of the Season 9 cast for Big Brother Canada.

25 Feb 2021[13]

On February 24, 2021, Global announced 22-year-old Ethan Quance, a line cook from Banff, Alberta as one of the fourteen HouseGuests competing in the ninth season. However the following day, several allegations were made against him including sexual assault and the use of racist and homophobic language. As a result, Global made the decision to remove Quance from the cast and announced that he would be replaced prior to the premiere. He was replaced with Kyle Moore.

While much of what has been brought to our attention remains unproven, we cannot proceed with casting this person and this individual will be replaced ahead of the season premiere.
