Canada's Worst Handyman was a TV show that aired on the Discovery Channel in 2006. It was a reality competition series that followed five contestants as they attempted to complete a series of challenges related to home renovation and repair. The challenges ranged from simple tasks like hanging a picture frame to more complicated projects like installing a toilet or building a shed.

The show was hosted by Andrew Younghusband, who served as both the host and the show's resident expert. He was joined by a team of judges, including Geoff Woodmansey, Gail Prosser-Craig, and other industry professionals. Together, they evaluated each contestant's work and provided feedback and guidance throughout the competition.

Each episode of the show featured a different renovation challenge, and the contestants were given a set amount of time to complete it. They were also given a budget, which they had to use to purchase all the necessary materials and tools. Once the time was up, the judges would inspect each contestant's work and give them a score based on a range of criteria, including quality of workmanship, attention to detail, and overall safety.

At the end of each episode, the contestant with the lowest score was declared the "worst handyman" and was sent home. The remaining contestants continued on to the next episode, where they faced a new set of challenges and another chance to prove themselves.

Throughout the series, the contestants faced a variety of challenges, from painting and tiling to plumbing and electrical work. Some of the contestants were more skilled than others, but all of them struggled at times with the difficult tasks they were given.

One of the standout features of the show was the camaraderie that developed among the contestants. Despite the fact that they were all competing against each other, they formed close bonds and supported each other through the ups and downs of the competition.

Overall, Canada's Worst Handyman was an entertaining and informative show that highlighted the challenges and rewards of DIY home repair. It offered valuable tips and advice for viewers who wanted to tackle their own home renovation projects and provided plenty of laughs along the way.
