The seventh season of MasterChef Canada, titled MasterChef Canada: Back to Win, premiered on February 14, 2021, on CTV and concluded on May 16, 2021. Filmed over the summer of 2020, this is an all-star season, featuring a dozen previously eliminated contestants as well as former runners-up from the past six seasons returning to compete once again for a second chance at winning the life-changing title, skipping the auditions entirely.
Chinese-Canadian Markham-based dessert bar and bakery owner Christopher Siu, a fifth place quarterfinalist from Season 2, was crowned the winner, with Season 5 runner-up Andrew "Andy" Hay and Season 4 runner-up Dorothea "Thea" VanHerwaarden finishing as co-runners-up. Siu became the first previously eliminated contestant to win the entire competition. This season (which did not feature outdoor field team challenges such as the Restaurant Takeover or the contestants' family members paying a visit due to pandemic travel restrictions) marks the very first time that three finalists competed in the first-ever three-way finale. It is also the last season narrated by Charlie Ryan and features Aprile, Leung and Bonacini as the original three main judges for the last time.
