Yeah, I was going to comment on this as well.

This Canadian version of Shark Tank called Dragon's Den actually predates the American one by 3 years (began in 2006, itself is an international franchised concept coming out of Japan from 2001).

Two of the OG hosts on US Shark Tank, Kevin O'Leary and Robert Hrejavec, were directly lifted from the existing Canadian version.
