TAR Canada 5 Pre-Race News and Speculation
TheHippo:
Did NB and PEI get no love? What about far north teams? Hmmm. I can only assume Toronto is last.
TheHippo:
Oops. Forgot to add, doesn't Cambridge seem like an odd choice? If doing SW Ontario, I would have assumed London would best cover the area and keep Toronto separate. I assume eastern Ontario teams would be split between Montreal or Toronto. And does Northern Ontario get left out? Hmmm.
Strictly speculating of course but it would be nice to see 15 teams this year. It would be a nice play on 150 by doing 15. As well you could do one from each province and territory (13) plus one for northeen Ontario and a second team from southern Ontario. I know this seems Ontario-centric but it would help balance out the Toronto population bias of having just one Ontario team. Of course BC AND Quebec could also have additional teams to balance out Vancouver and Montreal so perhaps that is considered too. Who knows. I could drive myself mad with speculation and trying to figure out how the casting crew determines who to interview.
WindsorSue:
I don't think it would have been necessary to set up interviews in each of the Maritime provinces. Halifax is an easy enough drive from NB & PEI. Newfoundland pretty much necessitated its own.
Right now I am starting to think Cambridge was used to deflect prying eyes away from Toronto. Relatively speaking, it's close enough to Toronto. Just my opinion. I guess we'll know in the next few days.
Applicants in northern areas would be asked to make their way to the nearest interview. And if there were any in Northern Ontario (for instance, Thunder Bay), they may actually be closer to Winnipeg than Toronto.
georgiapeach:
I think these cities reflect the semifinalist interviews. So perhaps the contestant locations reflect the cities chosen.
Why don't y'all look at last season's cities visited and see if it matches up with the racers.

Do we know those cities? The only ones I was aware of (I thought) were the cities the casting producers visited on recruitment drives - before the application deadline. I only have a vague recollection of Jesse Storey being in Halifax NS & St. John's NL
Also, I am presuming at this point there are still too many applicants for the casting crew to be that precise???
