The start of the AMAZING RACE CANADA! Yey! What really happened last night's premiere, hosted by Olympian athlete Gold medalist JON MONTGOMERY?
Amazing Race Canada is the 6th Season presentation on CTV Channel. Jon Montgomery introduced all the 10 teams who will race around the world but first inside the country Canada.
TEN TEAMS:
1. Chewy and Happy. They are Air Force Pilots. Retired.
2. Leanne and Mar. Mentors from Toronto (Cheerleaders)
3. Martina and Phil. Vancouver. Volunteers
4. Taylor and Courtney. RCMP Mounties. Brother and Sister team

9. Joseph and Akash. Volunteers for Food Bank
10. Nancy and Melissa. Elite Athletes (Olympic athlete) from Alberta
From Hatley Castle - University Colwood, British Columbia to
BC FERRY to SQUAMISH, B.C.
First Task: Who wants to save a Beaver?
Zipline to the Canyon trail and stop at the center net nest in the middle of the Canyon and jump to reach the beaver hanging from a zipline. Would you like to save the beaver (which is a stuffed toy)?
But that's the first task and if you succeed then you have to proceed to the next task, after task until you finish the last leg of this amazing race. If you fail the first task of grabbing to save the beaver you have to try the same task again and again until you get it.

What can you do? It seems like it's sort of an incredible GAG but it's the kind of training for true real action and where action should be. Like the rescue teams rescuing those hikers who lost their way in the woods to the Canyon. Something of a situation happened for real in real life and that training helps. Can an animator used that real life situation? Yup. remember the movie Jurassic Park?

Next Task: Squamish Festival - Climbing Tall Logs. Nancy and Melissa finished the 1st task and had to climb the tallest log to get the AR Clue. Leanne and Mar followed them on 2nd place.
Third Task: Crabbing. They used paddle board to get to the water site where there are buoys and they lifted the buoys one by one to look for crabs for inspection. Everyone brought the right sized crab except Taylor and Courtney, Martina and Phil, Happy and Chewy. They have to go back to the ocean to get the right sized crabs.
Fourth Task: To get to the THE PIT STOP at the Mill No. 3. Venue: Brittania Mine Museum (copper mine) Jon Montgomery waited for the arrival of the teams. The first to arrive at the Pit Stop wins the prize of trip for two to Tokyo, Japan. Winner: Leanne and Mar. What happened to Nancy and Melissa? They were the ones winning on the first task, 2nd task and yet arrived 2nd. Todd and Anna came at the Pit Stop on 3rd. 4th: Kwame and Dylan, 5fth: Courtney and Taylor, 6th: Monica and Zainab, 7th: Martina and Phil, 8th: Adam and Courtney, 9th: Akash and Joseph. 10th: Happy and Chewy.
Chewy and Happy were eliminated from the race. They were happy anyway, they are RETIRED PILOTS. I don't know what kind of planes they fly. Snowbird? I don't think they fly the Stealth because Canada do not have Stealths.
What could be the clue/code for this leg of the race?
I think I know. LOL.
At the end of the RACE. The winning team wins the PRIZE: $500,000 + Trip around the world for two + the AMAZING RACE. Do they get to win the Truck? I didn't hear Jon mentioned if they get to win the Chevrolet car or truck? You can win the brand new Chevrolet car if you will read and answer the direction of the contest on "twitter.com site." Why at twitter not at Google or Facebook? I don't have the clue.
