Justine est la preuve qu'il ne faut pas se fier aux apparences! C'est une fille de ville, elle aime les cocktails et les paillettes mais derrière tout ça se cache une ancienne athlète de haut niveau! Justine vient d'un clan familial très sportif : sa mère faisait du patinage artistique et son père comme son frère jouaient au hockey. Cet ex-joueuse de soccer est aussi une passionnée de jeux de société et de casse-tête. Pour elle il n'y a qu'une seule façon de jouer: intensément! De nature joviale, elle a l'intention de mettre de la vie dans sa tribu en chantant et dansant, elle dit qu'elle sera la "fofolle" du groupe.^[2]

Justine was placed on the Kalooban tribe. Thanks to her apparent negativity and to seeming out of her element, Justine was in danger early on, even becoming the secondary target when the tribe eliminated Vicky Côté Pierre. However, Justine began to show some fight in challenges and toned down her gloomy attitude, enabling her to suddenly integrate more solidly into the rest of her tribe.

On Day 16, a tribe switch took place and Justine became a member of the second Kalooban tribe alongside Sylvain Béland, who had been saved from elimination earlier due to a twist, Nicolas Brunette, Pierre-Alexandre Guillot, and three original Tiyaga tribe members. Nicolas, Pierre-Alexandre, and Justine were concerned about their numerical disadvantage against Sylvain and the original Tiyaga members, but there was some hope for them as Joël Dandurand felt that voting Kimberly Fortin out would weaken the dominating alliance on the opposing tribe. Fortunately for the tribe, they were never forced to draw any lines as they did not lose any Immunity Challenges for the remainder of the tribal phase.

When the tribes merged into Pag-Asa, Justine was recruited into Christophe Tiffet's majority alliance, which was now eight members strong. Joël was their first target for elimination, but when he won the first individual Immunity Challenge, they split the votes between Sylvain and Nicolas instead. Sylvain was voted out for a second time and, without the Pag-Asa tribe's knowledge, sent to Redemption Island. In a surprise Double Elimination, the Tiyaga Alliance immediately had another chance to vote out Joël after he lost the intervening Immunity Challenge. The alliance split their votes between Nicolas and Joël; Joël played his Hidden Immunity Idol for himself and Sango Bien-Aimé played his own for Kimberly in order to establish loyalty. As a result, Nicolas was eliminated as collateral damage.

With nine contestants remaining in the main game, Sango wanted to make a move, so he took advantage of a reward that he shared with Sandrine Fortier, Maryse Lauzon, and Justine; the four agreed to work with Joël to blindside Jean-Junior Morin at the next Tribal Council. After Jean-Junior won the following individual Immunity Challenge, their target switched to Christophe. However, Justine preferred to work with Christophe's group in the long run and leaked Sango's conspiracy to them. Thus, with the majority alliance pivoted to targeting Sango instead of Joël at the next Tribal Council. Indeed, Sango was voted out in a narrow 5-4 vote and sent to Redemption Island.

With the majority alliance now shortened to five loyal people, its members easily voted out Joël, Maryse, and Sandrine over the following three cycles. Unfortunately for Justine, she began to somewhat lose respect from people as her quitter attitude resurfaced and she gave up easily in challenges. On Redemption Island, Nicolas won the final duel against Sandrine and Sylvain and returned to the main game. While most of the tribe seemed to have the same short-term headspace to simply concentrate on voting Nicolas back out of the game, Jean-Junior began to discuss further moves with Christophe and suggested that they cut Kimberly at the final five instead of Justine since Justine would be very easy to beat at the end. Christophe didn't like this and Jean-Junior was blindsided at the next Tribal Council, with Karine Lavigne-Fortin and Justine being left out of the plan as well. At the final five, Karine won the corresponding individual Immunity Challenge. Since the new trio of Nicolas, Kimberly, and Christophe wanted to stick together, they had no other option but to vote out Justine this time.

At the Final Tribal Council, Justine joined the jury in voting for Nicolas to win the title of Sole Survivor; he won in a 6-1-1 vote over Christophe and Kimberly.
