Casting is now underway on the all-new season of The Bachelor Canada, set to air in 2017, with prospective Bachelorettes invited to apply for the upcoming season of the made-in-Canada reality smash.
“The Bachelorette Canada was a colossal hit, resonating with fans across the country, and we’re excited to continue that momentum with The Bachelor Canada,” said John MacDonald, Senior Vice President, Women and Lifestyle Content, Corus Entertainment, in the announcement the show will be airing on W Network.

“In the Canadian version of this smash-hit reality series, Canada’s most eligible bachelor is in search of the woman of his dreams – and hopefully his bride-to-be,” explains the announcement.
“The Canadian Bachelor will search for love as 20 women do whatever it takes to win his heart. The women compete for the Bachelor’s affection via individual and group dates involving local and far-flung romantic encounters and adventures,” the announcement states.
“As the Bachelor narrows the field and the number of women dwindles, romance and tensions will rise. Ultimately, he will choose the one woman with whom he wants to spend the rest of his life.”
Production on the new season of The Bachelor Canada will begin in spring 2017, with a plan to premiere in fall 2017, and producers are seeking 20 women willing to win the heart of the next Canadian Bachelor.
Open casting calls will be held in Winnipeg (Feb. 1), Calgary (Feb. 3), Vancouver (Feb. 5), Montreal (Feb. 7), Halifax (Feb. 9), and Toronto (Feb. 11 and 12).
