Season 20 of Dragons' Den Canada premiered on CBC in September 2025 and marked the show's twentieth season, which is why it fills this hub more than any other: we track 42 of its pitches, by far the biggest single-season group in our Canadian set.
Because it is recent, this season came with fresher press than the older years, and we used it. Even so, the ground rule holds: the ask is the reliable number CBC puts to air, the result is not broadcast, and our current-status notes come from fetched evidence dated to our July 2026 checks. Expect a mix here of confirmed deals, a few confirmed no-deals, and many pitches where the honest answer is that the outcome is not on the public record.
From coastal seaweed skincare to a souffle-pancake chain valued in the tens of millions, the twentieth-season lineup is the broadest snapshot of Canadian founder ambition we cover, and each linked page shows the math behind the ask before anything else.
Season 20 is the centre of gravity in the Canadian files, with 42 pitches followed, by far the largest single-season group. As the show's twentieth season, premiering on CBC in September 2025, it came with fresher press than the older years, and its businesses are the easiest to check on today.
The range across those 42 is the whole appeal. Aidify's student founders asked $10,000 for half their company and had all five Dragons raise the cheque to $50,000 for the same stake. Arlene Dickinson paid The Rice Stuff Box a full $2,000,000. Hornet Energy sold 25 percent split five ways at 5 percent each. At the other end, Hugzly opened the season asking ten million for a connected plush toy and left with nothing, and Saltwinds Coffee turned down a Dickinson offer on the grounds that its technology was worth more than she was offering.
Reading the season as a whole, what stands out is the sheer variety of Canadian founder ambition, from a five-figure student tool to a souffle-pancake chain self-priced at twenty million, and the hub is the fastest way to compare how each one valued itself before a Dragon said a word.
The big twentieth-season class, forty-two pitches, every kind of ending
