Loft Story is a Quebec television series broadcast on the TQS television network, and was an adaptation of the show Loft Story in France, which itself was an adaptation of the Big Brother franchise. TQS became V and replaced Loft Story with a new Big Brother series for Quebec in 2010.

During the first season (2003), the show had TVA's Occupation Double as its main competitor, and was a success in terms of viewership, but was not as financially successful as the French version. Therefore, the program was discontinued the following season but was resurrected three years later in January 2006. In response to criticism of year 1, year 2 toned down the sexual content and replaced it with daily games and truth/dare events. The loft was also changed to include a "stunt room" the size of a basketball court, which serves for games and entertainment. A third season started in September 2006, a fourth on September 26, 2007, a fifth in Fall 2008, and an All-Star season subtitled La Revanche in Spring 2009.

^2 On Day one six females and seven males entered – this meant that the gender balances were unequal, and the women were asked to Evict one of the men. They chose Mathieu and he secretly moved into a Secret Room. After three days he returned and, in return, won $1,000 and immunity from the first Nominations.
^3 As survivor of the eviction, Steve was allowed to give Immunity o a female Housemate – he chose Isabella and she was Immune this Week.
^4 Survivor Elisabetta gave Immunity to Alexandre.
^5 This week all the men automatically faced the Public Vote to evict. Jean-François was evicted with the most Public Votes.
^6 Benoît today was voted back into the house by the public. However, whether he could stay and become a Housemate again eligible to win, depended on the other Housemates. Each Housemate had to vote on whether he should stay or leave. Only if everyone voted for him to stay would he be able to stay. The result was six votes to one for him to stay, the person voting against was Maxime. As the vote was not unanimous, Benoît had to leave the house again.
^7 The two survivors – Elisabetta and Stéphanie – were given the power this week to save one male Housemate from eviction. They chose to save Maxime and Étienne respectively – which left Alexandre and Mathieu to face the Public Vote.

The winners of the second season were Mathieu Baron and Stéphanie Bélanger. Each of them won a car and $50,000. The other participants were Dominique Julien (finalist), Maxime Hébert (finalist), Steve Carrier, Nancy Bouzi, Lysandre Maillot-Perron, Jean-François Janelle, Isabelle Perreault, Étienne Gagnon, Elisabetta Fantone, Benoît Marier and Alexandre Ouellet.

Notes

^a This week the boys each had to nominate 2 of the girls. Priscilla is currently The Boss. The Boss has an immunity card which they can either use for themselves or give away to another housemate. Priscilla chose to make herself immune.
^b This week the girls each had to nominate 2 of the boys. Brenda-Lee is currently The Boss. This week the Boss had to choose the first nominee. The person chosen will directly up for eviction. Brenda-Lee chose Charles.
^c Last week the phone rang in the Loft and Jean-Philippe answered it. He was given 3 choices:(1) Whoever survives the eviction must give immunity to a girl. (2) Whoever survives the eviction must nominate a girl who will be up for eviction. (3) Whoever survives the eviction must choose 2 boys who won't be allowed to nominate. Jean-Philippe chose option 2. This meant that as Charles survived the eviction he had to choose a girl who would then be automatically up for eviction. Charles chose to nominate Brenda-Lee, who had automatically nominated him the previous week.
^d This week the boys each had to nominate 1 of the girls.
^e All housemates are automatically up for eviction this week. On Day 26, Charles, Christiana, Marie-Ève and Nathan were safe from eviction. On Day 28, Brenda-Lee, David and Melissa were safe from eviction. On Day 29, Kevins-Kyle and Kim were safe from eviction. Voting continues with Jean-Philippe, Priscilla & Shawn-Edward.
^f On Day 30, Kevins-Kyle has left the show with $10,000.
^g This week, housemates can nominate anyone. Shawn-Edward and Christiana received the most nominations and were initially up for eviction.
^h Kim is the current Boss and she was given a Power of Veto. This means she can save one of the nominees and replace them with someone else. She chose to save Shwn-Edward and replace him with herself, as she did not want to have to put up another person. Therefore, facing eviction this week are Christiana and Kim.
^i This week the girls had to each nominate 2 boys for eviction. The nominations were unanimous.
^j This week the girls are up for nominate and the boys are immune. Marie-Ève passed a secret mission earlier this week and won immunity. On Day 44, the 4 girls nominated Mélissa. On Day 46, the boys nominated individually as usual. They were left with a choice of either Brenda-Lee or Kim.
^k This week the boys were up for eviction and the girls were immune. David was also immune as he used the immunity bracelet which he had stolen.
^l All the ex-housemates were able to nominate individually and unanimously nominated Charles.
^m This week the boys had to nominate a girl and the girls had to nominate a boy. Shawn-Edward won a competition and could choose someone to be banned from nominating. He chose David.
^n On Day 61, in a surprise move, housemates had to vote for 1 person they wanted to evict. David and Marie-Ève were immune as they are currently nominated for eviction which the public are voting on. David and Marie-Ève were allowed to give immunity to another person, they chose Kim. With 3 votes Brenda-Lee has been evicted.
^o Day 62, after a few hours, Brenda-Lee returned to the House. It was revealed that her eviction was fake and that she hadn't actually left the house but was hiding in the diaryroom.
^p During the week the public were voting for who they wanted to save. However, it was revealed that these nominations were fake and that no-one would be evicted.
^q The public was voting for who to win.

^8 Sébastien is currently The Boss. He had to choose another Housemate who would then be automatically nominated for the first 3 evictions - he chose Stéphanie.
^9 Sébastien is currently The Boss. He had to choose 5 Housemates (2 male & 3 female) who would be immune from eviction. He chose Christelle, Marilyne, Mathieu R, Veronika and Yannick.
^10 Mathieu S. is currently The Boss. He had to choose a Housemate who would be automatically up for eviction. He chose Yannick. The Housemates then had to decide if the 3rd nominee should be male or female. They decided it should be male.
^11 Mathieu S. is currently The Boss and was immune. This week's nominations were a chain of immunity. First, Mathieu S. gave immunity to a Housemate of his choice. Then that Housemate gave immunity to another Housemate and so on until 4 remained. Élodie, Marilyne, Sébastien and Thomas are up for eviction this week as they were not chosen in the chain of immunity.
^12 Thomas and Yannick dislike each other and no longer wish to remain in the House together. A proposal was made by Yannick that Thomas accepted. The proposal was that Thomas and Yannick volunteer to be up for eviction. Big Brother also accepted this proposal and the nominations were Cancelled. Thomas and Yannick are therefore voluntarily up for eviction.
^13 All Housemates are automatically nominated for eviction this week with the exception of Sébastien who is immune as he is the Head of House.

^14 Claude-Alexandre and Geneviève were taking part in a secret mission, and as a result were exempt from this round of nominations. As Isabelle received most nominations, this means that Males will be given automatic immunity for following day.
^15 Since Day 1, Claude-Alexandre and Geneviève were taking part in a secret mission, which later included Jason, as the mission has completed, it was announced that one of them must go, and the housemates voted to evict either Claude-Alexandre, Geneviève or Jason, they were not permitted to vote. Even though evicted, Maude was allowed to nominate.
^16 This week housemates voted twice, first, to determine the first nominee, then, second time, to determine the second nominee. Initially it was Isabelle and Kevin who had the most votes, but after Geneviève won the Power of Veto, she was able to save one of the nominees and she chose to save Kevin, she could also replace the nominee, and she choose Manuel.
^17 Cynthia Sc and Kevin were immune as they are the current Heads of House. This week only the males could be nominated, meaning that all the females were immune. In the recent Canadian General Election there was a 58% turnout. The Master (Big Brother) decided that there should be a 58% turnout in the nominations, meaning that only 6 Housemates were allowed to nominate. Cynthia Sc and Kevin, the Heads of House, had to choose the 6 Housemates that could nominate and they chose themselves, Arcadio, Geneviève, Manuel and Mihaela. This meant that Charles-Éric, Cynthia Sa, Jason, Myriam and Rémi were not allowed to nominate.
^18 During last week, Jason broke a number of rules and was put up for eviction.
