Probably just promotional. "Be Part of the Energy" is Calgary's slogan, I remember seeing it on signs entering the city. They changed it a few years ago from "Heart of the New West" it was Nenshi's idea to adopt one that sounded more appealing to young people.

It could still apply though. Was there something similar about Jasper? Whitehorse had the phrase task. Or a FMC of phrases combined with all the statues, especially because he showed them the pic at the same time?

Still loving this season so far, it's been phenomenal, but the editing hiccups are even more prevalent? :/

Like... I'm kinda sad that they don't show ALL teams arriving to the mayor, ALL teams finishing the RB, skipping through stuff etc.

It feels too fast like regular TARUS :/

Yes. And do you know they didn't even show Anne's attempt on the Skytram last week? She did take one - you can see Tanya briefly in the observation tram with two others (I think Antoine & Joel???). That was blatant, and I feel sorry she wasn't shown. But that kind of thing only leads some people to make some very erroneous assumptions.

I actually didn't mind the editing all that much. It seemed very balanced Yes there were hiccups at the beginning of the leg with arriving at the mayor and the Roadblock, but the Roadblock was a linear task so I'm glad they did not focus a lot of time on the Roadblock. Also I would prefer them at the beginning of the leg. At least we got to see every team finish the Detour and check in at the Pit Stop. Plus they were able to add more drama with the Express Pass and Detour!


Overall I really liked this leg a lot. Roadblock was meh, but the Detour was cool and the Beatnik bus was fun. Lots of good drama with the Detour switching and placement shifts, and the tasks looked super difficult!

I actually wanna see a feud between Jemmett and Steph/Kristin in the upcoming legs, or at least they better not give them the Express Pass. I know it was an honest mistake for Jemmett, but I wanna see some good drama, because I would have been pissed that Jemmett broke their word.

Also I found it really funny that Rita & Yvette were almost happier than Kelly and Kate. :lol:

Omg what a leg! The race to the pit-stop was intense! And the season looks like it is only going up with the preview for next week. Can't wait to see the geese task it looks hilarious!

I also didn't think the leg was rushed at all. I thought we saw enough teams do the roadblock and any more time would've dragged it out a bit too long, especially since they also had to squeeze in all the detour switching and the EP task. Fantastic leg!
