Wait, is that the reason of taking a long break, because the leaker of the entire season 5 episodes HAS LEAKED the entire episodes??

No, it's so the episodes can be spread out over the year. Companies make more money from advertisements on new episodes, so the new episodes are being spread out so that revenue flow is steadier.

Ummm kinda, actually it is because the fall ratings determine advertising rates for the rest of the year. Discovery Family is holding new episodes of their HIGHEST RATED show until then, so that they can, you know, make money (which keeps the show on the air). It's like this, when the ratings numbers come in (the ratings numbers are an account of how many people watch the show on TV, the number of people who watch the show by stealing it off the internet don't count for ratings!) Then Discovery Family rakes those numbers to that advertisers and says "look, one million people watched this show." And then the advertisers say "WOW WE! That's a lot of people!! I will give you five dollars for every person that watches that show if you let me advertise my crap when that show is on." And then Discovery Family says "cool, that's like five million dollars! Now we can pay DHX to make more episodes" And then we all say "YAY! More episodes!"
