Chad McGillivary, from Nanaimo, British Columbia, pitched Get My Kit, an earthquake survival kit containing food, water, candles and other supplies, asking for $250,000 for 20% of the company. Under questioning it emerged that a large portion of the requested funds, about $138,000 including interest, was intended to repay a personal debt Chad owed to his father.
Manjit Minhas went out after learning the money would largely be used to repay Chad's personal debt rather than to grow the business. The other Dragons' specific reasons were not detailed in the captions, and no deal was made.
