"Canada's Drag Race: Canada vs. the World" cast was announced yesterday featuring 9 international queens. The cast is composed by four previous contestants from Canada - Rita Baga (Canada's Drag Race, season 1; Drag Race Belgique host), Icesis Couture (Canada's Drag Race winner, season 2), Kendall Gender (Canada's Drag Race, season 2), Stephanie Prince (Canada's Drag Race, season 2); two from the original format in the US - Silky Nutmeg Ganache (RuPaul's Drag Race, season 11; RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 6), Ra'Jah O'Hara (RuPaul's Drag Race, season 11; RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 6); two from the UK spin-off - Vanity Milan (RuPaul's Drag Race UK, season 3), Victoria Scone (RuPaul's Drag Race UK, season 3); and only one from New Zealand - Anita Wigl'it (RuPaul's Drag Race Down Under, season 1). The show premieres on Nov. 18 at 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT on WOW Presents Plus in the U.S. and on Crave in Canada. While this is an exciting format where they merge several spin-offs into one I think they fail on making it a diverse cast in terms of countries. In my opinion it's blasphemous how Thailand, Spain and Holland franchises were completely erased from this opportunity. What are your opinions? Are you watching? Who will you be rooting for?
