Airing exclusively on Global in the 2018 broadcast season, Big Brother Canada plucks a group of hand-picked strangers from their homes, sequesters them from the outside world, and places them inside a house outfitted wall-to-wall with cameras and microphones that capture their every move. Competing for a grand cash prize, each week the houseguests battle in a series of challenges that give them power or punishment, voting each other out until the fate of the final two is decided by a jury of fellow houseguests.

Don’t miss the Season 19 two-hour finale of Big Brother on Wednesday, September 20 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on Global, and available online following the broadcast the next day on GlobalTV.com and Global Go. Additionally, fans can catch up on their favourite moments from #BBCAN5 on GlobalTV.com and Global Go.
