Canada's Drag Race is a Canadian reality competition television series based on the American series RuPaul's Drag Race and is the Canadian edition of the Drag Race franchise, produced by Blue Ant Studios.[1][2] In a similar format to the American version, the show features a crop of Canadian drag queens as they compete for a grand prize of $100,000 and the title of "Canada's Next Drag Superstar". The series airs on Crave in Canada, the United Kingdom's BBC Three, and worldwide on WOW Presents Plus.[3]

It was the fourth international version of the Drag Race franchise to be announced, following Drag Race Thailand, The Switch Drag Race (Chile) and RuPaul's Drag Race UK.[3] It has since been followed by Australian and New Zealand, Dutch, Spanish, Italian, French, Filipino, Belgian, Swedish, Mexican, Brazilian, and German iterations. Canada's Drag Race was the first English-language iteration of Drag Race not to be hosted by RuPaul, although RuPaul does appear in video messages to the contestants and narrates the title sequence.[4] The series is hosted by RuPaul's Drag Race season 11 runner-up Brooke Lynn Hytes, along with judges Brad Goreski and Traci Melchor.[5] Past judges include Amanda Brugel, Jeffrey Bowyer-Chapman, and Stacey McKenzie.[6][7]

The first episode of the first season premiered on July 2, 2020.[8] The cast was announced on May 14, 2020.[8] A third season was announced on November 10, 2021 and premiered on July 14, 2022.[9] The series has been critically acclaimed and has won 18 Canadian Screen Awards.[10][11]
