Episode summary
Teams began at Commonwealth Stadium and had to search the seats for their first clue. Teams then had to rappel down from the stands to their bags and their next clue.
Detour: On The Fence or Behind The Wheel This season’s first Detour was a choice between On The Fence or Behind The Wheel. In On The Fence, teams had to compete in a fencing bout, alternating one team member at a time, and score three touchés against an opponent using an épée before receiving their next clue from Olympic medalist Luan Jujie. In Behind The Wheel, one team member had to make a clay pot using a potter’s wheel while blindfolded and under verbal guidance from their partner before receiving their next clue.
Assist After the Detour, teams had to drive to Canyon Ski Resort outside of Red Deer and find their next clue. There, one team member had to ride an alpine coaster and count how many seconds the ride lasted within two seconds before receiving their next clue. The Assist was hidden in one clue, found by Rebecca & Rebecca, and allowed them to guess within five seconds.
Roadblock: “Who can keep it between the lines?” In this season’s first Roadblock, one team member had to perform a country–western line dance alongside the Country Pride Dance Club before receiving their next clue, which directed them to the Pit Stop: Fort Normandeau.

The Amazing Race Canada Show Descriprion
The Amazing Race Canada is a Canadian adventure reality game show based on the international Amazing Race franchise. Following the premise of other versions of the format, the show follows teams of two as they race across Canada and around the world. Each Race season is split into legs, with teams tasked to deduce clues, navigate themselves in foreign areas, interact with locals, perform physical and mental challenges, and travel by air, boat, car, taxi, and other modes of transport. Teams are progressively eliminated at the end of most legs for being the last to arrive at designated Pit Stops. The first team to arrive at the Finish Line wins a grand prize of CA$250,000 and additional prizes from the show’s sponsors.
Commissioned and broadcast by CTV, The Amazing Race Canada is hosted by former Olympian Jon Montgomery, produced by Insight Productions in association with Bell Media and with the support of Profiles Television.
After the season 7 finale, it was announced that the show was renewed for an eighth season. Originally expected to premiere in mid-2020, the season’s production was postponed until 2022 due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Canada. It is currently scheduled to premiere on July 5, 2022.
