Global television has announced plans to air a Canadian version of the game show “Deal or no Deal,” and for once we aren’t getting a cheesy Canadian “celebrity” knock-off host.

Yes, Howie Mandel is Canadian, but he also hosts the American version. It’s been announced that he will travel north to host five shows which will air next spring.

“Any opportunity to come home, I do and I’m there a lot regardless. So to get paid and to be able to do the thing that I love doing most right now and to do it in my hometown is pretty exciting,” Mandel said in an interview with the Toronto Star.

Mandel still has a home in Toronto though he lives in Los Angeles.

The Canadian version will actually be the 67th incarnation of the show, which has been in a hit in countries around the world.
