‘Big Brother Canada’ Season 6: Canada has the power to choose 2 houseguests

March 1, 2018

Are you ready, Canada?

Season 6 of Big Brother Canada is returning to Global, and there’s a brand-new cast of Canucks ready to spend months sequestered in the house away from their families and friends.

Starting Wednesday night, four special Canadians are vying for a spot in the Big Brother Canada house, but only Canadian fans can select the final man and final woman to join the houseguests.

To seal the fate of the hopeful houseguests, BBCAN fans can vote at the official website before March 8 at 2 p.m. ET.

While the power to round out the cast remains in the hands of Canadians, the real choice lies in which type of houseguest to elect – the loyal good-natured teammate true to their alliance, or the deceitful and cutthroat schemer willing to do whatever it takes to win.

Season 6 of BBCAN has a heaven/hell theme, and each potential wildcard houseguest is either an “angel” or a “devil.” Without a doubt, this will have an impact on the house.

So who are these four candidates? Their full information is below. Global News spoke to two of them — Merron Haile and Kirsten MacInnis — to discover their motivations and strategies. (You can hear from them directly in the video, top.)
