Original subtitles

My name is Priyanka.

What's my name?

Do you love me?

I can't believe I'm here!

My name is Priyanka.

I've only been doing drag for two years,

but you wouldn't know that because I'm an icon.

If you came to a Priyanka show,

you would see good hair, a really shiny costume,

a lot of dancing, and I'd probably end up

making out with you.

I think that sounds like a good time, doesn't it?

I'm the first ever queen to walk on Canada's Drag Race!

This is so crazy!

Before I started drag, I was a kids' television host.

But now being a drag queen,

I'm finally being like the real me!

I didn't even see the maple leaf!

Canada's about to bring it. I don't think y'all are ready.

Alright, next queen, bring her in!

Alright, party girls, we're just about to walk into

the work room for the first time,

and I'm gonna let these poors have it.

Thanks for tuning in. Bye!

I'm Ilona Verley, and I'm a ááá bitch.

I'm from Vancouver, BC.

I'm known for having a very sickening Instagram.

My drag is always ostrich feathers, rhinestones,

has to be monochromatic, and just sickening, iconic.

Hello!

Hi! How are you?

Oh, first two!

Hi, what's your name? - Ilona.

Ilona, do you have a big following on Instagram?

I have a pretty big following.

Okay, word. - And it's all real.

Are you calling mine fake?

I mean, I know a lot of girls in Toronto

buy their followers, but...

let's say that at least half of yours are real.

What?!

I'm just being a bitch. It's what I'm good at.

Ah!

En Francais, s'il vous plait.

I'm Kiara. I'm 21.

I'm from Montreal.

I'm pretty, and I'm versatile.

The full Kiara experienceis hair flips, somersaults,

dips, whatever you want. I put on a show.

Hi, girls. - Hi!

I've been doing drag for only two years,

but people are calling me Montreal's next rising star,

so I guess I'll take it.

- So French.

My main weakness as a queen is that...

I... er...

Um...

Oh, shit, I'm flawless. Sorry.

Mmm! You like that?

Oh my god.

My name is Juice Boxx.

I'm 31, from Essex, Ontario.

Live in Toronto.

Mmm.

I'm very sensual. I love to whip my hair around.

I want the other queens to look at me and think like,

"Oh my god, she's so ááá hot."

I'm stuck.

- Help.

I don't want to rip my tights.

I'm stuck.

Just ááá let it happen.

Got it.

Iconic. Do you want a redo?

Can I do it again?

Take two!

If you don't know my name,

just call me Mother.

I am Anastarzia Anaquway,

and I represent the pageant queens.

Everything I wear I make myself,

and everything will fit to a T.

Hi, pageant queen!

I spent the last 17 years

competing around the world.

I've collected so many titles:

Miss Bahamas,

Miss Caribbean International, Miss Gay Toronto,

Miss Canada International and, of course,

Miss Black Continental, which I am the reigning.

Why do you need Drag Race, then?

Get outta here.

Get outta here.

Everyone knows Starzy is a star!

Pucker up, motherááer.

Oh-ho!

I'm Lemon, just like the citrus fruit.

I'm from Toronto, but I live in New York City,

and I'm gorgeous, hilarious, and sour as hell.

I'm a dancer.

It was my love for dance that ended up bringing me

to New York City.

I got into a school there, and then after that,

I found drag and kind of was like,

"Oh, this is what I'm meant to be doing."

Oh, she's giving you those real legs.

I have walked New York Fashion Week.

I have competed in every single drag competition

in New York City, and I've won all of them,

so yeah, bitch works hard.

Oh my god! Hi, bitches.

I love your duvet. - Ooh!

Just my couch.

I know I'm one of the best dancers

that Drag Race has ever seen.

There we go. She made it.

All the way from New York.

So I'm about to make these girls feel real bitter.

You didn't think you could bring the race to Canada

without Scarlett Bobo, did you?

A-ha-ha!

My name is Scarlett Bobo,

and I'm your favourite circus freak.

Yes!

I've been doing drag for 12 years.

I'm like a hippie, wild child, punk rock star,

wrapped up into one bow-bow.

Bobo!

And of course it's Bobo.

She's weird as hell.

Yeah!

But one of Toronto's headline entertainers.

And you're Toronto, right?

Yeah.

The drag scene inToronto is insanely competitive.

There's 20 new drag queens that pop up a week,

fighting each other, and clawing for that gig.

Toronto has the best drag in the world.

We work harder than like even New York queens.

No. - Oh!

Okay, whatever.

Oh.

Attention 5s, a 10 has just arrived.

My name's Kyne.

I'm 21 years old, from Kitchener, Ontario.

When you come to a Kyne show, you are gonna get goddess.

I sing, I act, I dance.

They don't call me the dancing diva

of the Kitchener-Waterloo Cambridge tri-city area

for nothing.

Yeah!

Lots of people know me for my YouTube channel,

over 100,000 subscribers.

I show people how to make wigs, how to sew costumes.

I am the queen of social media.

I learned styling my wigs by your videos.

Really? - Yeah, I did.

Oh!

I've taught 100,000 peoplehow to do drag in my videos,

and I'm here to teach 11 more.

What?

What the áá?

I am not like udderqueens.

My name is Boa, the bitch on arrival,

originally from Windsor, 24 years old, and I am what?

Constipated.

I am floored to see Boa.

Boa has a bad rep in Toronto.

She's messy and she's a littleannoying, but she's super funny.

Ah...

Splits, high kicks, death drops, jumps,

I do none of it.

- Boa, Boa, Boa!

How did you get past security?

Oh my God!

Queens in this competition are gonna doubt me.

They're gonna underestimate me,and that is ááá okay,

bitch, because that is how I'm gonna snatch the crown.

Let's start the milking!

Bonjour, hi!

Say hello to the queen of Montreal.

Bonjour. Je suis Rita Baga,

32 ans, et je suis la queen supreme de Montreal.

And embrace!

So embrace this thick accent.

Hello!

Rita is a big deal in Montreal.

She's a house queen. She's fierce.

She always has gorgeous looks.

She gave me my first gig in Montreal.

Really? - They do.

They all know I'm old now. Thank you.

I've been doing drag for the past 13 years.

I've been voted four times Best Drag of Montreal.

My name's Kyne. - Kind?

Yes. Kyne.

Kyne. - Yes.

Kyne. - Qui, weh.

Weh? Oui, Kyne?

Oui. - I'll get it.

The new generation, they do call me a legend sometimes,

and I'm always like, "I'm not that old, bitch."

I'm glad you guys don't only speak French

'cause that would have been scary,

'cause all I can say is

"Est-que je peux allez a toilet?"

But do you want to go now? - To the toilet?

Yeah, was that a real request?

Not right now. - Oh, okay.

Oh, wow! Oh my...

God!

Wha...

What's happening right now?

Okay. - My name is Jimbo.

I am 37 years old, and I am a run of the mill guy.

I'm going to spin in a circle.

At a Jimbo show, many people come just to see

what costume I've made or what weird idea I have

or what I'm gonna be pulling out of where.

I have a reputation for being a strange and amazing show.

You look fierce, girl!

I wouldn't say I have a signature look.

My signature is that I do what I want when I want to do it.

I want to hire you for my birthday party.

You can!

Can you do magic tricks?

I can make my dick disappear.

Ah!

Serving body and giving face.

Watch out, Canada. I'm here to win this race.

I'm Tynomi Banks

from Toronto, Ontario.

If Tyra Banks and Naomi Campbellhad a little love child,

it would be me.

I can be soft, and oh so cute, or...

...ready to give this ááá neck,

and attitude all the ááá...

All the time.

Hi! - Hi, I'm Kiara.

Tynomi is here, and I was fully a backup dancer

for her when I was 18.

I'm so gagged that she is here.

ááá legend!

How are you doing? Look at you.

Bitch, I am floored seeing Tynomi

walk in the work room.This competition just turned up.

This is it. - This is all?

Am I the last one to pop through?

I think they saved the best for last.

Last one in, first one out, bitch!

So, um, who's ready? I'm ready.

I'm ready. I'm ááá ready!

It's starting!

Oh, Canada.

She done already done had herses.

My Canadian queens...

Welcome to the family.

Yay!

After many years of dreaming, it's official.

We're looking for Canada's first drag superstar.

Now, I have one thing to say.

It's aboot time, eh?

It feels insane to actually hear

her voice addressing us.

So spread your charisma, uniqueness, nerve,

and talent across the great white north

for the whole wide world to see.

Give it your best shot, ladies, and whatever you do,

don't áá it up.

Wow!

Bonjour, bonjour, bonjour!

Oh, hi!

My god! - He's so butch!

Oh my god, the judges walk in, and I am so gagged!

Stacey is stunning!

It's crazy to see her in person.

Brooke Lynn is the queen of the north.

Jeffrey... - He's so hot!

Oh my gosh, his skin is like caramel.

Wagwan, darlings!

You all look incredible!

Thank you. - So do you!

We are so thrilled to be your judges

and mentors for the season.

You are allnow officially in a relationship

with a throuple.

Ooh.

That's right. Each week,

all three of us will decide who stays and who...

sashays away. - Ooh!

Take it from moi, Drag Race is like

a long, hard...

relentless Prairie winter.

But I can promise you...

it's gonna be worth it. - Ooh!

Because in the end,the winner of Canada's Drag Race

will be crowed Canada's first Drag Superstar!

And prance away with a year's worth of hotel stays

from our friends at Hilton.

Yes, Paris! Give it to us.

And a cash prize

of $100,000.

Take the money!

Skip the coins!

It's about to rain loonies, bitches!

#CanadasDragRace.

Okay, who's ready for their closeup?

Me!

Well, get ready because winter is coming.

Oh! - Brr, chilly!

- Let's go!

The winner of Canada's Drag Race receives

a year of hotel stays from Hilton,

and a cash prize of $100,000.

With Jeffrey Bowyer-Chapman, Stacey McKenzie,

and Brooke Lynn Heights.

With tonight's extra special guest host, Elisha Cuthbert.

Ilona Verley, welcome to the stunningly realistic

Rocky Mountains.

Oh my gosh!

Say hello to our photographer, Matt Barnes.

Hello, Matt Barnes! - Hi, how are you?

He's shot everyone from Orville Peck, Ariana Grande,

and our own Brooke Lynn Heights.

So you got some big shoes to fill, literally.

I'm a size 6.

No, she's not.

But let's get down to business.

To celebrate Drag Race coming to our

áá and native land,

you will have five minutes to scale

this Canadian Rocky Mountain,

and plant your flag at its snowy peak.

Oh, I have to walk up it in heels?

Oh, sickening.

The queen with the coolest shot wins.

Word, okay. - But be careful.

We hear there's a cold snap moving in.

Are you ready, Ilona?

Yeah. - Go!

Ah-ha-ha!

Oh my god, I already lost a nail.

Listen, I'm used to social climbing,

but climbing a literal mountain in heels while holding a flag?

Uh-oh-uh...

Gonna be taking this off.It's really hot.

The Abominable Snow Queen is stripping!

Bye, bitch.

I was trying to be like, oh, like, sexy girl!

All Marilyn Monroe.

You know,I do love a built-in glory hole.

- Oh!

No, no, no, no!

Oh my gosh, there's a big ááá fan.

Oh! Oh geez, take the ring out!

No, no, no, no, no! No, no, no!

Honey, yes!

That was so dramatic!

I will do anything for a good serve.

- Oh!

There you go!

Priyanka!

Yeah, that's nice.

I'm up there on the mountain feeling my oats.

Then...

What?

What do you mean? No!

My eyelashes gonna fall off, motherááá!

Focus, girl, focus.

Oh, right.

Is that called a smize?

Yeah.

Come on down, Priyanka.

Scarlett Bobo!

Oh my god, this is ááá gag-worthy.

Oh my god!

Oh!

Oh! Oh my god!

I think I've seen this porn.

Sid Vicious, White Christmas.

I just took a ááá load.

Oh my god!

Rita Baga!

Okay!

Whaaaaaat?

Her tuck is separatist.

Hello, Kiara!

Ooh, the forecast is fierce blizzard.

Oh!

Pop it like it's cold, honey.

Thank you, guys.

Anastarzia Anaquway!

Ooh, oh!

There she blows!

Ooh, ooh, it's in my throat.

It's in my nose. Ooh!

Ooh!

Now, that's what I call an Okanagan Trail.

Tynomi Banks.

Let's see some booty.

Yeah, work that whole space.

Dance hall queen in a blizzard scene.

Oh my god!

Bitch on arrival, Miss Boa!

Is she getting ready to charge?

Ow, ah!

She's really milking it.

First prize in the country fair.

Lemon!

Ooh, oh yeah.

Ooh, the Rocky Mountains.

I'm trying to serve this high glamour, like,

"Oh, I'm climbing a mountain, I'm beautiful,"

but my eyelashes are like this, and my whole head is like this,

and I just feel a little bit like... Oooh!

Huh!

Ooh, I can see her lemon torte.

Ready for my closeup.

That's great.

I'm thinking it's just a simple photo shoot.

Puppies, I adore puppies!

And then,

blizzard hits.

Hold onto your hat, honey!

Woo!

I'm just trying to stay fierce and find my light.

Woo!

Nice.

Nice or naughty?

Juice Boxx!

I'm trying to be dainty and graceful,

and I'm trying to serve you like, "Yeah, I'm gorgeous."

This angel's about to take flight!

So I feel really good.

So graceful.

Bye!

Ooh! - Aiee!

Of course I fall.

Are my wings still on?

Jimbo!

Wow, a big slide!

Welcome to the Rocky Mountains.

I don't like the cold.

I'm from Victoria, and we don't have snow,

and I'm terrified.

What is all this white stuff all around me?

Oh, this is actually quite nice!

I thought this was gonna be hard.

Oh wow, I love the snow.

Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah!

Wow.

Ooh, ooh, ooh. - That was a blow job!

Can someone help me take this off?

Oh!

Yeah, that feels so good.

Look at you guys!

Who the hell are you?

So, everyone's de-dragging.

I am looking around for cute boys, and clearly,

nobody is cuter than me.

I'm surprised they didn't ask me

to be on the pit crew.

I want to see what Jimbo looks like out of drag.

I don't even know! What am I gonna look like?

All of us are like...

There could have been anybody under there.

My mom could have been under there.

Ah!

Oh my god. - And what do we get?

A daddy.

Hi, Jimbo.

Hey!

You want some Boyanka?

So gross.

Wow, that expedition really changed y'all, huh?

But one of you peaked at just the right time.

The winner of today's mini challenge is...

Kyne. - Yay!

Congratulations.

What do I win?

You've won $1,000 of latex couture from Polymorphe.

Whoa!

I won the first minichallenge on Canada's Drag Race!

Woo!

These bitches better remember.

Ladies, I hope you're all thawed out

with your claws out,

'cause this race is about to get real.

I've always wanted to say this.

Oh, pit crew!

Oh my gosh. - Oh, oh!

Yes!

Come over here. - Ooh!

The pit crew's coming in,

and the hormones are coming in too, honey!

Oh, I feel so hot!

Oh, yummy. Ai-ai-ai.

For this week's maxi challenge,

you need to design and create a high fashion look

for the runway using these boxes

stuffed with items that scream "O Canada."

And no Canuck couture would be complete without

some classic Canadian fabrics and accessories,

provided by our friends at Roots.

Kyne, because you conquered the mini challenge,

you get to choose your own box,

and assign the other presents to your sisters.

Be nice to us!

Don't make enemies day one!

So, Kyne,

what box are you gonna choose for yourself?

I'm not saying I'm a gold-digger,

but I'm gonna take the Yukon gold-digger box.

I don't know what material is in these boxes,

but this box is just screaming my name.

We have Lemon.

What gift are you bestowing on her?

I sort of hear whispers of what people want,

and then I just hmm, give them something else.

You are gonna get jock scraps.

I'm a professional dancer.

I have no ááá idea whatsports are, but let's play ball.

Alright. Up next, we have Ilona Verley.

Muskokurrrrr!

Ahh!

Next, Rita Baga.

Quebec-froid. - Ooh.

Because you're Quebecois.

What present would you like to give to Jimbo here?

Rain-blow it up.

Priyanka...

Gone fishy. - Thank you.

Up next, Boa.

No other choice other than Man of Green Gay-bles.

Kiara...

Like a Prairie.

Thank you!

Tynomi Banks.

Lumber Janes. - Thank you.

Anastarzia Anaquway.

Canada Gay. - Ah.

Scarlett BoBo.

Glam-pede. - Oh!

She does like to ride a cowboy.

And last, but not least, Juicy Boxx.

Much Ru-Sic Video Prance.

See?

I like that. I'm into that.

Ladies, you'll be judged on how well you express

your personal drag style, and tomorrow,

you'll debut your eleganza extravaganza

on the main stage.

...where we'll be joined by this week's

extra special guest host, Elisha Cuthbert.

Gentlemen, start your engines,

and may the best woman win.

Come on, guys!

Oh my god!

Look at all this.

Ooh!

For this maxi challenge, we have to create

high fashion looks incorporating Roots products

from our O Canada boxes.

I just want to wear this.

Oh my god, look at all my Roots bandanas!

Oh, zippers, zippers, zippers.

Amazing!

You got crabs? Who got crabs?

I do not have crabs.

Well, there was one time.

So I get this box.

I'm rumbling through, taking everything out,

and then the magical fabric.

Yeah-ha-ha!

Oh, life!

And then this Roots ribbing.

Whatever it is I make, it's going to be fabulous.

I'm good, baby.

Oh my god.

I am assigned the Man of Green Gay-bles box.

Girl, I don't know anything about Anne of Green Gables.

I don't know her. I never met her.

Potatoes. I got potatoes.

There are potatoes.

What the áá am I gonna do with potatoes?

A hockey stick.

So my box is Jock Scraps.

Tennis balls, badminton things,

and sports equipment that I don't know the names of.

Ooh. So many of whatever these are.

Spaghetti straps.

No, but what are they in, like, life?

Is anyone athletic?

No. No one here is.

Oh!

Have you ever played a sport?

I played European handball.

So, no, you've never played a sport.

Yeah, that doesn't count.

I'm getting ideas, everyone.

I'll probably have these sides like this.

That's a moo-moo.

No, no, no. Bitch, relax.

I've got plenty of things from my home town.

I get assigned the Quebec-froid box.

It's a dream. Thank you, Kyne.

It's full of mittens, blankets,

and stuff that looks like the Quebec flag.

I can see all the things that I like from my hometown.

Oh! - Oh my god, bitch,

can I have those, please? Feed me.

I'm really happy to see these cheese curds, baby.

She's been eating it for years.

I just ate my costume.

Oh, what's this? This looks fierce.

Oh, feathers. Very, very my culture.

Okay, I feel like I literally just jumped in a bush

with this box.

Okay, this red leather is actually a moment.

It's also kind of my culture.

You're First Nations?

Yeah, from the rez, girl.

What tribe? - Skuppah.

As an indigenous person,I think it's very important that

I'm representing all of my Nlaka'pamux people

and my tribe, Skuppah.

Growing up, I was so in this mindset of like,

you are male; you have to be male.

Then as I grew up and gotmore involved in my own culture,

I learned about being queer and being two-spirit,

which means finding yourself in between the male

and the female energy, but acknowledging both of them.

This is like how I grew up.

I grew up in a small farming town with hunters.

It's really important to me that I talk about

being two-spirit, and I talk about being Indigenous,

and be proud of who I am,and hopefully be able to inspire

others to just be themselves.

Oh, okay, this is not my colour scheme

but we're gonna make it happen.

Oh my god, what the áá is this?

Kyne assigns me Much Ru-Sic Video Prance.

I've got tapes.

I've got CDs.

I have scrunchies.

Oh, I have hundreds of these.

So I'm just kind of like...

"Now what do I do?"

So, do you sew?

I can put two pieces of fabric together,

so I can make it work.

Sewing's not my strong suit,

but I'm gonna make the best out of it,

and I'm gonna figure it out.

How do you break these?

Is this dangerous?

Can you cut CDs?

Yes.

I just start chopping away at these CDs.

I'm gonna give you this like mirror.

Oh, love that. - Like, right?

I want to give you that sexy Juice Boxx feel,

so I just want to be able to find something that's gonna

show that off in a good way.

I'm literally just gonna like cut these for hours.

Wow, look at all your gold.

I know! - Oh, wow.

I went for the Yukon Gold Digger box.

Ornaments.

I'm thinking I can do disco diva fantasy.

I design and sew pretty much all of my looks.

They all come out of this head.

Are you a sewer?

Yeah, I sew lots of my costumes.

And so I think that shouldintimidate the other queens.

Does everybody like the choices

that I picked out for them?

I hate you! I hate you!

I didn't want to have to be the one to choose the boxes,

but I can't help but win.

I... I can't help it.

Kyne is starting to hit a nerve.

What's going on over here?

Uh, a lot of ááá handkerchiefs, bitch.

Do you sew?

No. - No?

It was nice getting to know you.

- Damn!

I'll leave you to it, kiddo.

We're back! - Ooh, girl!

Don't, Boa!

It's the first elimination day,

and we have to create high fashion looks

that are runway-ready out of these theme boxes

that say "O Canada,"

and at this point, we're not really sure who's in trouble,

but I am ready to let these girls have it.

Work, bitch!

Yes!

How old are you again?

Me? 38.

So you're the oldest here.

I'm the oldest here, but--

No one knows it.

But no one knows becausemy black skin's so juicy.

Where's my lip gloss?

I hate my life.

Oh my god.

I just want my lip gloss.

I love Lemon, but she's a little annoying,

a little like, "Boo-hoo me."

I just want my lip gloss.

My lips are so dry.

Sometimes people see me and think very quickly,

"Oh yeah, I know that one."

I did not bring enough makeup.

Really? Why?

Honestly, I couldn't afford to.

I worked really hard to be in this competition.

I went to probably the most prestigious dance school

in the entire world in New York City, Alvin Ailey,

and got in on a full scholarship.

Being 19 and living on my own, and paying my own rent

in a city like New York City makes you grow up faster

than anywhere in the world.

If you can make it there, you can make it anywhere,

and I already made it there, so bring on these queens.

Ilona, where are you from? - I'm from Vancouver.

Ooh, that's fun.

But I've been living in LA recently.

Really?

It was the change I needed.

It was a nice like way to like refresh my perspective

because I was very youngwhen I started doing drag there.

I was like so immature.

Then, when I grew up, no one waswilling to like understand that

people grow up and change.

I kind of have the same story with that,

where I just drank a lot and I partied a lot.

I had to get through that

and become sober and quit drinking.

I was just a mess.

I just woke up and I was like, "This is it."

Like, "I need to quit drinking,

"and I need to get my shit together."

So you're like fully sober now?

Yeah, fully sober. - Way to go.

How much has your life changed

since you've sobered up? - Oh my god.

I have the clarity I need,

and I don't have the constant worry about being ashamed.

Did people stop coming to your shows

when you sobered up?

Uh, well, people don't go to my shows

in the first place.

People likefull out stopped coming to mine.

Really? - Yeah.

I've been sober for about two years now.

It felt good to have a conversation

with Boa about sobriety.

I'm really proud of herfor her sobriety journey because

being in the industry that we'rein, there's a lot of people

that come to the show just to see

how drunk you're gonna get,

and see all the dumb things you're gonna do.

I was an asshole when I was drunk,

and like I wasn't a nice person.

I decided I didn't like the person that I was

while I was drinking, and I didn't like the decisions

that I made, so I decided to change that narrative.

It's been the best decision I've ever made in my life.

I'm super proud of myself for making those decisions,

and I'm super proud of myself for...

kind of sticking with it, you know?

Okay, ladies, how do we feel about getting ready

to talk the first runway on Canada's Drag Race?

I'm excited to see what prize I win.

A ticket home. - Ah!

We're in it now, girls.

Yes, girl! - Yeah!

Welcome to the main stage of Canada's Drag Race.

I'm Elisha Cuthbert, and I'm thrilled

to be the very first guest host to work this runway.

Stacey McKenzie!

What's up, girl?

Stacey, what's the difference between

a top model and a drag queen?

I would say about five shoe sizes.

My fellow Albertan,

Jeffrey Bowyer-Chapman!

Isn't this unreal?

And Miss Brooke Lynn Hytes.

Oh, hi.

How does it feel being on that side

of the judges' desk?

You know, it's all coming back to me now.

But the truth is, I'm a little bit excited.

Ooh, let these Canada Games begin!

This week, the queens were challenged to make

a fashion-first impression usingclassic Canadian materials.

And tonight on the runway,

they're ready to serve their Canuck couture fantasy.

Gentlemen, start your engines, and may the best woman win.

First up, Anastarzia Anaquway.

I'm showing the judges craftsmanship,

ribbed from head to toe, my beautiful, stretch,

shiny whatever fabric this is.

Red for quilt.

Next up, Kiara.

The fantasy is, "Hey, girl, hey!"

So this Babadook bitch, she's gonna walk it down, baby.

Hey!

I'm holding this pitchfork;

I have a big-ass hat.

This scarecrow is ready to scare all those bitches

trying to come for me in this competition.

Scarecrow, she better don't!

Uh-uh.

She looks like she's gonna rob a silo.

Lemon. - Pucker up!

I am working the runway.

I am hitting my baseball out of the park.

I'm realizing that this is a hockey stick,

but it doesn't ááá matter.

I am serving you every sports fantasy

rolled up into one little bitch.

Oh, I have a great dentist.

Ilona Verley.

The fantasy is spooky,ooky, pageant queen of realness.

Her hands are all dirty 'cause she was digging her way

out of the grave to compete inthe Halloween Miss Bitch Pageant

or whatever, you know.

She is trying to win that crown.

Now I ain't saying she's a coal-digger...

But what are you saying?

She's a whore.

Next up, Kyne.

I am serving you disco diva meets Yukon gold-digger.

She's dancing. She's strutting.

She's looking for a new husband

and I am just letting these judges soak it in.

Disco is not dead. It's gay.

I think her balls just dropped.

Scarlett BoBo.

Yee-haw!

Ya-ya-ya!

I'm serving this adorable cowboy girl look.

I'm wearing this handkerchief bra.

The look is fierce.

I would get so much dick atCalgary Stampede in this outfit.

Yee-haw, honey.

Save a horse, tip a drag queen.

Jimbo.

I'm giving you rainbow realness.

Walking down the runway,

I am serving 645 working pockets,

but I can't find my bus fare!

The fantasy is alive, and it's heavy as hell,

and I can't feel my feet.

Happy Pride!

Tynomi Banks.

Sock it to me, girl.

I'm serving Lumber Jane realness,

walking through the woods, going to my man's cabin.

Why are those socks so stiff?

Boa.

Honey, the fantasy is Little Miss Potato of PEI.

She glued all of her first-placeribbons to a glittery-ass

green corset, and she is wearingher gorgeous potato crown.

P-E-ay-yay-yay!

I am giving you all sorts of potato.

We've got baked potatoes, French fries, mashed potatoes.

I knew it. Anne has twins.

Do you see what happens when Marilla puts on some makeup?

Juice Boxx.

For this runway, I am serving

disco ball Flintstones,

my tiny little booty peeking out.

I am giving you twirls.

I'm giving you this little ponytail.

I am giving you Much Ru-Sic Video Prance Ho,

trying to make a dollar.

Just one.

Ooh, she can speaker my corner.

Next up, Priyanka.

I'm giving you catch of the day.

Oh my god, are those crabs on her shoes?

There's a shampoo for that.

I'm giving you nautical full

Bollywood fish fantasy,

unlimited crab at your favourite local restaurant.

Ladies and gentlemen,

Miss Seafood Platter 2019.

Mmm.

I do love a queen who cleans up after herself.

Rita Baga.

I'm serving frozenrealness, Popsicles, everything.

She's a cold-hearted bitch.

She just came from her cryo-therapy appointment.

I'm giving you full Quebec-Froid,

and she's got some cheese curds, baby.

Oh, cheese! Say cheese.

You've got to poutine to put out.

Welcome back, ladies.

Based on your Canuck couture fantasy,

and your runway presentation,

the judges have made some decisions.

When I call your name,

please step forward.

Anastarzia Anaquway,

Kiara,

Ilona Verley,

Scarlett BoBo,

Tynomi Banks,

Priyanka.

You are all...

...safe. - Oh my god.

You may head back to the workroom.

Hello, ladies.

You all represent the tops

and bottoms of the week.

Lemon, you had the Jock Scraps.

I sure did.

So I get what you were going for tonight.

I thought that you were quirky, and campy, and cute,

but that certainly wasn't enough for me to buy

what you were selling.

The fit isn't great, and it all,in the end, just seems undone.

My main problem with this outfit

is just the shape: it's just very boxy.

I think you have a great like presence.

However, for me, it was messy.

I think you're adorable and I think your makeup

looks beautiful tonight.

Thank you. - It's funny.

The little details like the mouth guard on the stocking

and the shoe, I totally missed.

I actually am loving it right now.

I really appreciatethe way you came out here.

You had character, so thank you for giving us a performance,

even though it was Off-Broadway.

Off-off-Broadway.

Yeah.

Kyne, unfortunately,

my favourite part of your outfit,

the bell bottoms, were falling apart.

It's what my eyes were directly drawn to, as you were walking.

Just watching you walk in it,

it looked like you'd just come from a Grindr hookup.

You were like...

The outfit, unfortunately,

it gave me a lot of like Christmas vibes.

Not my favourite look tonight.

Well, it's my favourite look tonight.

Okay, first of all, I gotta say this.

I feel like you went safe with your outfit.

Make it larger than life. Go beyond your comfort zone.

I felt like I had gone outside of my box

with these bell bottoms.

I've never had to do pants like these before.

Okay, that's fine, but bring it up a notch,

and don't be afraid to really go beyond.

You wanted to say something? - Yeah, yeah, I did.

This is a very quintessential silhouette for me.

I'm very proud of my outfit.

Thank you, Kyne. - Thank you.

Up next, Jimbo!

Hey, hey, hey.

I tend to have asoft spot for the quirky queens,

but sometimes I think there's the concern

that that's all there is,

and you've proven tonight that you are not a one-trick pony.

Thank you. I have a lot of tricks.

This outfit is very creative.

What I love most is all the different colours

and where you laid them out.

The hard work you spent, you see.

Job well done. - Thank you so much.

Boa! - Hi!

You had me in awe from the time you walked out

by presenting your personality, your creativity.

So you definitely captured our attention.

I was very nervous to walk on here.

No, listen. The nervousness did not show.

You owned you.

Those boobies...

That is wowzers.

Ka! - Yeah.

You're just fun.

You're fun. - You're fun.

You're a fun girl. - Thank you.

Up next, Rita Baga.

You are certainly the most polished

on the stage tonight.

This was so Montreal, so high camp,

the cabaret style of drag that Montreal does so beautifully.

You hit presentation so far out of the park.

I love that your look islike polished from head to toe.

It's very high fashion.

Perfect. I loved it.

Merci!

Juice Boxx. - Hi.

I grew up going to Much Music Video dances

when I was a kid. - Same.

I really appreciate your cutesy little style

and energy you brought out onto the runway, but unfortunately,

it's not quite enough to cover up...

this outfit. - Okay.

I mean, it's just all a little bit sloppy for me.

The skirt is just so short, unpolished, unfinished.

Okay. - Juice Boxx, hi.

How you doing? - Hi, I'm fine.

You sure? - Well, not now!

This is messy. It's very safe.

Okay.

I'm really trying to find something positive here,

and honestly, I can't.

This look is, I will say,

it's very on-brand for you.

It's very cutesy pop princess.

It's just a little basic.

Yup.

Are you okay?

I just feel a littlebit of a panic attack coming on.

Okay, don't panic.

Can we get Juice some water, please?

Yeah, get her some water.

It's just really cold.

Just breathe, honey.

I'm sorry. I am so embarrassed.

It's okay. It's okay.

Don't be embarrassed, it's fine.

Juice, here's your robe.

Know that we want to see all of you do well.

You didn't get to hear my critiques.

Oh no, baby.

I'm gonna be here for your critique,

as soon as that blood rushes back to my head.

Yeah, yeah.

Go for it.

This was giving me like this cute

like pop princess vibe.

I thought it was adorable. - Thank you.

Listen, everyone has their own opinions,

but I actually thought this was really cute.

Thank you.

Queen to queen, I know the pressure

of this competition firsthand.

It's intense, but you're here for a reason,

to find Canada's next drag superstar,

and this experience will change your life completely.

While you untuck in the workroom,

the judges and I will deliberate.

You may leave.

Oh! - What's up?

They're back. - What happened?

I had a panic attack onstage.

No!

I had a full-blown panic attack,

and I just like don't want to be that person.

What did they say?

The bottoms are me, Lemon, and Juice Boxx.

No! - Yes!

I was ready to be like, "Hey, guys, yeah, I'm the winner."

Like, just being up there for the first time is just

so, so intense.

She is top!

You got in the top?

Yes, they loved her!

Kyne is obviously very upset,

but she's being a bit of a brat.

Like, really, babe?

You're top?

We are living in a world where Boa beat me!

Okay, listen, bitch!

I hand-sewed this corset all myself,

fitting to each and every curve

of this big meatball right here, bitch!

Kyne does not like my look.

She's giving me a hard-ass time right now,

and I'm thinking, "Well, maybe if you weren't such a bitch

"and showed more personality on the runway,

"you wouldn't be where you are, honey."

You gave me this crazy-ass box, bitch,

and then you took the gold box,

and all they did was ááá read your ass all day, bitch!

What I delivered was my signature style.

This is disco. This is Kyne.

It means absolutely nothing if you don't

have character on that stage.

So Kyne starts going off, and like,

yeah, we're all in a competition,

but she has taken it from like competition

to full-ass telenovela.

Boa beat us!

Oh my god. - Well, I'm amazing, bitch!

Look at me, honey!

Settle down. Inside voices, sissies.

Okay, just between us cariboo-boos,

we've got some decisions to make.

What do we think about Lemon?

She definitely owned her look,

but at the end of the day, the outfit,

it was a complete mess.

She was going forfootball player and cheerleader,

and it just was all too much.

That put a sour taste in my mouth.

I appreciated how she was able

to take criticism, though.

Agreed. - Yes.

She took it gracefully.

She did not fight back. There was no sour looks.

Speaking of sour looks,

Kyne...

Did y'all get that attitude?

Oh, yes.

Clearly not a pageant queen,

not someone who's grown up learning to take critique.

I think that's part of thedanger with social media queens.

They're so used to receiving all of these accolades

and just constant affirmation.

She thought she had a winner,

but it didn't hit the mark.

And those balls on the bottom, she couldn't walk.

Kyne had a very snobbish attitude,

so she needs to like suck up whatever she's feeling

and know that we're here to help her, not to hinder her.

What do we all think of Jimbo?

So colourful and fun and vibrant.

Rainbow colours are hard to work with.

That's hard to make look fashion,

and I really think she did a good job with what she had.

Her personality is just so wild and out there,

outrageous and quirky.

She did not cut corners,and I appreciated that.

Moving on, Boa.

What a little weirdo.

Oh my gosh. - She's fantastic.

Her personality really shone through tonight.

I knew within a minute exactly who she is.

The outfit itself was like a meld of like Peter Pan,

and Poison Ivy, and Anne of Green Gables, but yet,

here I am, can't take my eyes off of her.

That outfit should not have worked.

No!

And it was weird,

and I was like, "Why do I like this?

"I shouldn't like this." But I liked it.

You have to be able to engage the audience.

That is key when it comes to a runway, and she, you know,

she did that very well.

Juice Boxx.

There was just really nothing about the outfit

that I liked.

The wig was a shake and go.

The skirt was unpolished, unfinished.

I could see the hem rolling up at the bottom.

It was just so unflattering.

Her personality is so bubbly and loveable and fun,

but that look was like Party City Wilma Flintstone.

Eeh.

It's not like she didn't have a lot of options.

She had options. She had CDs.

Do you remember CDs?

Yeah, she had CDs. I'm still using them.

You still use CDs? - Yes.

You too, right, Elisha? - No, I don't, no.

To me, she could have done

so much more with her outfit.

I feel bad 'cause I think I understand

what she was trying to go for. - Mm-hm.

And finally, last but certainly not least,

Rita Baga.

Love, love, love, love Rita Baga.

That outfit was elevated.

The taste level was through the roof.

I love that detail of the Roots mittens.

Kind of have a crush on Rita.

I wanted to crawl into her igloo and just

cuddle up there and stay there all night.

I know who she isafter seeing her on that runway.

She is a campy Quebecois queen.

They are very over the top and cabaret,

and so I thought that was areally nice nod to her province.

And the cheese curds, I wanted some of those!

I think the three of us have made our decision.

Bring back our loons.

Welcome back, ladies.

Each week, the three of us have to decide

who stays and who sashays away.

So many queens from across Canada applied,

but you all made it here,

and that is an accomplishment

that nobody can take away from you.

Just by being here, you should all be so proud.

Jimbo, well, zipperdy-do-dah-gay.

You served us rainbow right.

Boa, girl, life gave you spuds,

and you made tater-ade.

Rita Baga,

we loved you from cold front to back.

Rita Baga...

Con-drag-ulations.

You are the winner of this week's challenge.

Thank you! Happiness!

You have won a $5,000 shopping spree

from our friends at Roots.

Thank you!

You may join the other girls.

Yay!

This, right now, is her-story.

I won the first ever maxi challenge

on Canada's Drag Race!

Boa and Jimbo,

you are both safe.

You may both step to the back of the stage.

Juice Boxx,

we can see that you have plenty of juice.

We just wish that you had used more of your box.

I'm so sorry, my dear,

but you are up for elimination.

Kyne, we love balls.

We love them.

But on the runway,you didn't gold-dig deep enough.

Lemon, you brought your anime game to the runway

but your sports look wasn't super kawaii.

Lemon...

I'm sorry to say that you are up for elimination.

Kyne, you are safe.

However, during your critiques,

all of the judges got serious pushback from you.

There's a fine line between confidence and arrogance.

We all suggest you find it.

You may join the other girls.

Oh, sorry.

Two queens stand before us.

Prior to tonight,

you were asked to prepare a lip synch performance

of Carly Rae Jepsen's "I Really Like You."

Ladies, this is your last chance to impress us

and save yourself from elimination.

The time has come

for you to lip synch for your life.

I feel terrible,like I did not think that I'd be

bottom two this early on.

I did not think that my look was deserving of bottom two.

I am really shaken up.

Sorry, sis, but someone's gotta go.

This is gonna be a full-out bloodbath.

It's gonna be a show.

Good luck, and don't áá it up.

There is no way I'm going home.

I don't care what it takes.

I love Juice Boxx so much,

but I'm about to send this bitch packing.

Do you want me?

Do you want me?

Do you want me?

This lip synch right now is fire.

I need to tell you something

Do you want me?

Do you want me?

Do you want me?

Do you want me?

Do you want me?

Good job, bitch! Yes!

Wow.

Ladies, I hope you're all paying attention.

That is how you lip synch for your life.

But a decision must be made.

Lemon...

Chante, you stay.

You may join the other girls.

I love you.

It's okay.

Juice Boxx,

you may not have brought home the Canadian bacon,

but you will always be our Canadian pork chop.

Ha-ha.

Now sip on that.

I will. Thank you guys so much.

I appreciate it all from the bottom of my heart.

This is an amazing opportunity, and I'm just so happy

that I got to be a part of it.

And now I'm part of those like pantheon of girls

that went home first.

It breaks my heart to say this,

but... sashay away.

We love you. - I love you too.

And you should be so proud of yourself.

Thank you. I am.

Thank you guys so much. I appreciate it.

We love you. Thank you.

We love you.

Bye, ááá*!

I'm proud of myself that I made it here.

I never thought that I would even have a chance

to get on Drag Race, and here I am on the first season

of Canada's Drag Race, and I put up a ááá fight.

I came, I saw,

I got stuck on my outfit,

I fell in the mini challenge, and then I danced my ass off.

There you go, Canada, suck on that.

Well, con-drag-ulations, ladies.

And remember, stay true north strong and fierce.

Now let the music play!

Work it for me, me

You wear it

Next time on Canada's Drag Race...

Inspired by the iconic Heritage Minutes,

you will be overacting in two her-itage moments.

Action.

Someone call the doctor because I'm feeling sick-ening!

A sexist place, full of... Oh my god!

I'm sorry. Oh my god.

Just say the lines. Just say the lines, Boa.

Kyne, you were not too pleased on the runway.

You know what? I forgive you.

Bitch, you're gonna forgive Brooke Lynn?!

You killed it for me.

I just wrote, "Yassss!"

The fact that you are new to this isn't very relevant

because she slayed the game.
