It’s the show audiences cannot get enough of, and now there’s another international version to satisfy your desire for backstabbing and betrayal. Here’s how to watch The Traitors Canada in the US in case you got hooked on the American version.
The Traitors Canada is based on the Dutch show De Verraders and follows a group of strangers who live in a historic manor in the Montréal area. The contestants are split into two groups: “Faithfuls” and “Traitors.” The Faithfuls are 20 contestants who hope to share a prize fund of $250,000 after eliminating the Traitors.
Per a press release: “Cloaked under the cover of darkness, the devious Traitors murder the Faithful one by one in a treacherous spree while the players try to uncover the Traitors and banish them from the game. If the Faithful contestants banish all Traitors, they will share the final prize, but if a Traitor makes it to the end, they get to walk away with all the money. In this psychological adventure of prize-building challenges, savage accusations, and diabolical murders, will the Traitors be unmasked in time?”
The show was inspired by a murderous 17th-century mutiny. Jasper Hoogendoorn, who oversaw the show’s development, told The Guardian that The Traitors was inspired by the voyage of the Batavia, a Dutch ship that was shipwrecked off Australia in 1629. The survivors split into factions and started killing each other. Of the 300 crew, only 129 people remained when rescue crews came to their aid. “It’s a story about people who murder each other, backstab each other, betray each other. It’s a horrible story. But it was such a fascinating story and I was thinking it’s also exciting,” Hoogendoorn said at the Edinburgh TV festival.
Since De Verraders premiered in The Netherlands in 2021, the show has led to spinoffs in countries like the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia. So…where can Americans stream The Traitors Canada? Read on for how to watch The Traitors Canada in the US online for free after binge-watching the American version.

To watch the show in the US, however, Americans will need a VPN (virtual private network), a service that allows users to set their computer’s location to another country and access websites that would otherwise be restricted by location. The most popular VPNs are ExpressVPN, NordVPN, AtlasVPN, and Pure VPN, all of which offer a 30-day money-back guarantee. Read on for how to sign up for them to watch The Traitors Canada in the US.
