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 saw 8 new HouseGuests compete alongside 8 HouseGuests from prior seasons who returned for a second chance. The HouseGuests lived together in a house with no communication from the outside world and were continuously surveilled by live television cameras. They competed in challenges for power and safety before voting each other out of the house. When only two HouseGuests remained, a jury of nine previously evicted HouseGuests voted for one to win the grand prize of $100,000, a 2017 Toyota 86, as well as a $30,000 home makeover from The Brick. The runner-up received a $20,000 cash prize.
The series ended after 69 days—the shortest full season to date by one day—on May 18, 2017, when returning HouseGuest and poker player Kevin Martin was crowned the winner over new HouseGuest and real estate broker Karen Singbeil.
