The “Real Housewives” franchise is getting its first Canadian spin-off: “The Real Housewives of Vancouver” has been greenlit and will air on Canada’s Slice network. There’s no cast yet, but The Province has some suggestions:
For the wife of the sports star, how about Trevor Linden’s wife and Basquiat boutique owner Cristina Linden? The woman married to the sports franchise owner box could be ticked by signing on Canucks owner Francesco Aquilini’s wife Tali’ah. The society doyenne with a knack for charity fundraising role could belong to Army and Navy heiress Jacqui Cohen. And finally Vancouver Board of Trade chair and CEO of Century Plaza Hotel and Absolute Spa Group Wendy Lisogar-Cocchia fits the powerful career woman profile nicely.
Yeah, I don’t know who those people are, either. Nonetheless, I’m happy to hear this news, if only because it’s a “Real Housewives” show that WON’T be shown in America. The only way I could possibly be interested is if one of the cast members is a moose.



More like gash network
I can’t wait for the episode where some bitch gets a $200 bottle of maple syrup smashed over her head.
Given the Canucks story that involved Francesco Aquilini story that was on deadspin the other day, I could imagine his wife would also be a pretty fun chick.
Yeah, more like Ga…
Oh goddamn it. *shakes tiny fist at Mr. Obvious (whose name is incredibly apt in this situation)*
In order for this type of show to work up in Canada, they’ll probably have to get rid of the 2-minute penalty for hooking.
If they wanted their network to carry both a vaginal and soda reference they really should have gone with Squirt.
I heard they will be filming in Vancouver, but claiming that the show is still set in America.
What exactly do you mean by that?
