Canada's Drag Race: Canada vs. the World is an international all-stars series of Drag Race that premiered via Crave and WOW Presents Plus on November 18, 2022.[1][2] The series, a spinoff of Canada's Drag Race, follows RuPaul's Drag Race: UK vs. the World, which brought together past competitors from the Drag Race franchise.[3]

Similar to the preceding iteration, Brooke Lynn Hytes assumes the dual responsibilities of hosting and serving as the head judge in Canada's Drag Race: Canada vs. the World. The show enlists a panel of supporting judges including Brad Goreski and Traci Melchor.[4]

The contestants compete for a prize package consisting of $100,000 and the esteemed title, 'Queen of the Motherpucking World'.[5][4] In June 2023, the show was renewed for a second season.[6]
