MasterChef Canada Tonight: Season 9, Episode 2 Time and Channel

The gist:

What time is MasterChef Canada on tonight?

7 p.m. ET/PT on CTV. Bell Media's own show page lists the Tuesday 7 p.m. slot for season 9, and CTV News confirmed the same time when the season launched on Sept. 22. TVmaze's listing shows a later 9 p.m. slot for tonight's episode, but that entry hasn't caught up with CTV's actual grid yet — we're going with Bell Media's published time.

What channel is MasterChef Canada on?

CTV, in the same Tuesday 7 p.m. hour the network has used all season. There's no separate CTV2 simulcast for MasterChef Canada the way there was for The Voice's premiere week.

What's the episode about tonight?

Season 9, Episode 2 is titled "Rice, Rice Baby," per the episode listing Bell Media and TVmaze both carry. It follows last week's opener, where the Top 12 was set after a Beef Wellington cook-off judged by Mary Berg, Hugh Acheson and Craig Wong — the full rundown of who made the cut is in our season 9 premiere results.

Where can I stream MasterChef Canada in Canada?

Crave carries every episode starting the day after it airs on CTV, and CTV.ca and the CTV app stream it live and on demand with a participating TV provider login. There's no separate MasterChef Canada channel on a streaming-only service this season.
