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.

Format

Big Brother Canada follows a group of contestants, known as HouseGuests who move into a custom-built house outfitted with cameras and microphones, recording their every move 24 hours a day. [12] The HouseGuests are sequestered in the Big Brother Canada House with no contact with the outside world. [13] During their stay, the HouseGuests share their thoughts on events and other HouseGuests inside a private room referred to as the Diary Room. [14] [15] At the start of each week in the house, the HouseGuests compete for the title of Head of Household, often shortened to simply HoH. [16] The winner of the HoH competition is immune from eviction and will name two HouseGuests to be nominated for eviction. [17] After the nominees are determined, the Power of Veto competition is played. Five players will compete in the competition: the two nominees and three random players, with the winner receiving the Power of Veto. If a HouseGuest chooses to exercise the Power of Veto, the Head of Household is obligated to name a replacement nominee. [18] The holder of the Power of Veto is safe from being nominated as the replacement nominee. [19] On eviction night, all HouseGuests must vote to evict one of the nominees, with the exception of the nominees and the Head of Household. The eviction vote is by secret ballot, with HouseGuests casting their votes orally in the Diary Room. In the event of a tied vote, the Head of Household will cast a tie-breaking vote publicly. The nominee with the majority of the votes is evicted from the house. Midway through the season, the evicted HouseGuests go on to become members of the "jury"; the jury is responsible for choosing who wins the series. The final Head of Household competition is split into three parts; the winners of the first two rounds compete in the third and final round. Once only two HouseGuests remain, the members of the jury cast their votes for who should win the series. [20] [21]

Twists

Team twist

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. [22] 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: [23]

Summary

Week 1
On Day 1, fourteen new HouseGuests moved into the Big Brother Canada house for up to three months and a chance to win the grand prize of $100,000 in addition to prizes from sponsors valued at $20,000. The public voted for the two HouseGuests they wanted to become team captains before the start of the season. Kiefer and Tina were revealed to be the winners and the captains for Team Defender and Team Destiny respectively. After entering the house, the pair entered the OLG Lounge to observe the remaining twelve HouseGuests in secret monitor with no sound. After all the HouseGuests entered Kiefer and Tina were tasked to pick their teams based on first impressions. Arisa revealed to the group that there would be no Head of Household or Power of Veto competitions for the week instead the teams would compete for safety.
  • Safety Competition ("Drop in the Bucket"): This competition was played in teams. As Team Captains, Kiefer and Tina did not participate since they were already safe from eviction. HouseGuests must hold a bucket of toxic sludge. If their bucket drops, they will be eliminated. The starting weight of each bucket was filled based on the physical proportions of the HouseGuests to make the competition as fair as possible. In addition, the Captains may add sludge to the opposing team's buckets at selected times. The last team standing will be safe, and the members of the other team will be nominated for eviction. Victoria won for Team Destiny.

As a result of Victoria winning the safety competition for Team Destiny, her team received a feast for the night. Meanwhile, Team Defenders, as the losing team, received slop. Breydon, Jedson, Josh, Julie, Latoya and Rohan from Team Defenders all faced eviction. Latoya campaigned to evict Julie under the assumption of Julie being a loud-mouth, while Josh wanted to evict Rohan for being a potential threat. On Day 6, all HouseGuests, except for Tina, voted to evict one of the two nominees on eviction night. Tina, as the Captain of the winning team, would only vote in the event of a tie. Prior to the eviction vote, the members of Team Destiny anonymously submitted questions for the nominees of Team Defender. Julie was evicted after receiving eleven eviction votes. Josh received two eviction votes, while the other four nominees received zero eviction votes.

Week 2
Following Julie's eviction, the HouseGuests competed in the Head of Household competition.
  • HoH Competition ("Arch Rivals"): HouseGuests must balance a ball in their bow and arrow, periodically adding an additional ball from time to time. If they drop any of their balls, they will be eliminated. Austin of Team Destiny was the last HouseGuest standing, making her the HoH and earning her team immunity 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. Victoria, Tera and Tina were drawn to compete for the Power of Veto.

  • PoV Competition ("Don't Upset the Apple Cart"): 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. Kiefer placed the most apples, earning him the Power of Veto.

On Day 10, Kiefer elected to use the Power of Veto on himself, with Austin nominating Rohan in his place. On Day 13, Josh was evicted by a unanimous vote. Arisa then announced to the HouseGuests that the teams were officially disbanded, and everyone would play as individuals.

Victoria was the last HouseGuest standing, making her the HoH as well as winning a lottery gift card from OLG and Lotto Max.

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.

The HouseGuests learned that Breydon won the "Skip the Slop" vote, earning him a meal from Skip the Dishes and nullifying his Have-Not status for the remainder of the week. While Jedson wanted to save an ally, 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 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.

Have-Nots

At the start of each week, a group of HouseGuests are selected to become the Have-Nots for the week. Those selected to be the Have-Nots are restricted to a slop diet and cold showers, and are required to sleep in an uncomfortable room. Each week, a "Skip the Slop" online public vote is held. The winner of the vote (indicated by strikethrough) will receive a free meal from SkipTheDishes and have their Have-Not status nullified for the remainder of the week. The vote was held every week where Have-Nots were named, with the exception of Week 5.

Notes

  • ^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.

Controversy

Big Brother Canada Twitter
@BigBrotherCA

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.

25 Feb 2021 [25]

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. [26] [27]
