"Property Brothers" is a Canadian reality television series that is produced by Cineflix. Its history begins when Drew was living in Vancouver and auditioning for acting roles. He was offered the chance to host a show called "Realtor Idol", based on the "American Idol" format. The show never materialized, but producers wanted him for a show tentatively called "My Dream Home" (a title which has been used in some international markets), with the intention of having a male and female host. When they learned he had a brother who was also in real estate, they developed a show around the pair; that company would later film their pilot for "Property Brothers".

Justin Carriero of "The Young Folks" called "Big Brother Canada 7" that most lackluster season of "Big Brother Canada". Carriero noted that the season had a great setup to be an amazing season; however when the Pretty Boys alliance, made up of Adam Pike, Anthony Douglas, Dane Rupert, and Mark Drelich, which ran the entire season and controlled every eviction vote, made the season repetitive and boring. He also added that many of the other HouseGuests were not strategic and had a lack of gameplay. In his conclusion, he stated, ""Big Brother Canada 7" started with fire before flickering out into smoke by the season's end."
