Last year's BB Canada started Feb 27th. I expect this year to start sometime in Feb also.
The casting for the Big Brother Canada 2 season was completed 10/28/2013.
BBCAN would be moving to a new location for 2014.
The new house layout can be seen in the background of the production meeting.

I am surprised there is another BB in Canada, this means that maybe it was profitable and had an audience even if I gave up on the show as soon as it started since it depressed me to see an 'indoor' game. I loved Australia for their sunny outdoors and also love US for their sunny backyard.
I'm very close to the North Pole and just want to see a lot of sunshine. But maybe I'll give it a try now that I have the time...

It had very high ratings, Spunky. I know what you mean about BB being a summer thing but this one is worth a look.

I can't wait, and I hope that they use some of the same competitions and stuff from the UK and AU. Almost everyone who watches all the BBs really, really likes the UK and AU shows.

Another big delay is Big Brother Italy, it was cancelled due to the house burning down 2 days ago in Cinecitta' Rome. Over there Big Brother is considered "trash tv" and it doesn't seem people were saddened by the news. Go figure...

I think the feeds are free (they were last season) but I think it was also blocked outside of Canada for some inexplicable reason. However, there are ways around that.

The Chrome thing sounds interesting.
Good News: They will be sponsored and free again this year. There will be commercials breaks.
Bad News: Those outside of Canada will be geo-blocked.
To get around this use...
1. UK & US VPN Free Service: ukusvpn.com
or...
2. Install the Media Hint extension in Chrome. Really simple and your Chrome browser won't be geo-blocked again.

Mamapors:
Could you please be more specific as to how to set up or use the Media Hint extension for those of us in the states and/or those who are unfamiliar with it?
Thanking you in advance.

I just downloaded Chrome, then went to the website:
https://mediahint.com/install_chrome.html
and loaded the extension, following the directions there.
I won't know if it works till the feeds come up, but I am ready!
