The Traitors Canada

The Traitors Canada is a Canadian reality television series, that is based on the Dutch series De Verraders. It is hosted by the French-Canadian actress Karine Vanasse.

Following the premise of the previous versions of De Verraders, the show features a group of contestants participating in a game similar to the party game Mafia - in which a small group of contestants become the titular "Traitors" and must work together to eliminate the other contestants in order to win the grand prize, while the remaining contestants become "Faithfuls" and are tasked with discovering and banishing the Traitors by voting them out in order to win the grand prize.

Format
Twenty Canadian contestants arrive at an historic manor in Montreal, with hopes of winning a share of the $100,000 prize. The players are referred to as the "Faithful" but among them are the "Traitors" – a group of contestants selected by host Karine Vanasse, whose goal is to eliminate the Faithfuls and claim the prize for themselves. Should the Faithful contestants eliminate all the Traitors, they will share the prize fund, but if any Traitors make it to the end, they steal the money. In a season one twist the host Karine Vanasse told the last player banished before the end game not to reveal if they were a faithful or traitor.

Production
On June 6, 2023, it was announced that Bell Media has commissioned English and French language adaptations. Karine Vanasse, the host of the show, would also present the French language version Les Traîtres, making her the first person to host multiple versions of the franchise.
