Title: TAR Canada 1 SPOILERS & LIVE Sightings! Tweets go here *please read post 1*
Post by: georgiapeach on April 29, 2013, 11:35:30 PM
LIVE sightings go here!  :hearts:
 
Guidelines:
 
If you are posting a tweet, please post the actual tweet, the tweet time, the twitter user name is optional. If you remove it, please copy me the name. 
 
For FB posts, please remove the FB name, but please send me the name and link for our records.
 
It is also wise to take a screenshot of any posts you want to see again, they disappear quickly.
 
Please be kind, and don't all bury the poor unsuspecting twitterer with questions, if you see another RFFer on the job, let them handle it. Rest assured that we try to follow up on all twitters/sightings.
 
If you are concerned that any info gained from any sighting or tweet may be private or confidential or just "too much too soon", feel free to PM or email me to ask before you post.
 
If you are bringing us a live sighting, :tu !! But please do  help us as much as you can with WHO (be descriptive, what they look like, is it a male/female team for example, what color they are wearing is helpful) WHAT are they doing, WHERE (as exactly as possible..street? airport gate? be specific!), WHEN (what time zone?, exact time), and any descriptions of the action! Pictures are treasured!
 
 
And even though we all get excited, please, once we have a possible location, take the discussion to the Speculation or Location threads and leave the Twitter zone free for incoming info! :ty3:
 
If you have a spoiler and prefer to share it privately, you are welcome to PM walkingpneumonia or me. You can also email me if my inbox is full or just if you prefer, my email is in my profile. Your confidentiality will be respected.

I see 9 sets of backpacks and 9 cars. Must be 9 teams for TAR Canada. I don't know if that was already known or not.

Oops, I see WP just said that! I didn't look at the top of the picture for text.

Thanks everyone for an awesome first day of TAR CA detective work.

Ummm, anyone in Vancouver or Kelwona want to do an airport run?
Estimated gate arrival Vancouver is 18:56 - Fri May-3-2013 for AC-115

Then it looks like they'll be transferring to either:
Jazz 8314 Dep 21:05 - Fri May-3-2013 (runway)    Arr 21:54 - Fri May-3-2013 (runway
Jazz 8422 Dep 22:50 - Fri May-3-2013 (runway)    Arr 23:39 - Fri May-3-2013 (runway)

to Kelowna. Where I wouldn't be surprised to see an OOO.

She is currently in Alberta and if you look at her videos she tweeted: Two guys from my Hometown are auditioning for the Amazing Race Canada!! Please watch their audition! xo.

In that video it says that team is from Kamloops.

Another sighting on the Canada Line that mentions Bridgeport Station:

Britanya ‏@BritanyaHodge 4m
Amazing Race contestants are running around Bridgeport station & are on the Canada Line this morning! #cool

The Canada Line is part of the Vancouver area Sky Train rail system. If you are coming from the North (Vancouver), the route map indicates that Bridgeport Station is where the trains split off to go to Vancouver airport. So, the assumption that they are headed to the airport makes sense.

From Facebook (with unneeded fluff edited out):

<Local Radio Station>
Amazing Race sighting in Kelowna! Just got a call from <radio station> listener Scotty and he said he saw the teams at Kelowna International Airport this morning.

He also said he recognized a couple of the contestants...Hal Johnson and Joanne Mcleod.

Cool! Anyone else see the teams in town?

<Listener 1> I heard they were at my work!
about an hour ago via mobile

<Listener 2>  Were they leaving or arriving in Kelowna?
about an hour ago

<Radio Station>  Listener 1 - Where do you work?  Listener 2 - They were leaving Kelowna and heading to Vancouver.

<Listener 1> The delta grand hotel!

<Listener 3> Our geocaching club hosted a flash mob at Stuart Park for World Wide Flash Mob 10 day and they saw the contestants. Wish I hadn't missed it now!

That sign is Chili's. To get that photo and angle, they need to be at gate A12. Though its really not far from gates 1-10. But Gate A12 has a flight to Saskatoon. I live there and am currently at work. I work at a hotel with access to the shuttle can. Unless I see confirmation or sightings from Edmonton, I will head to the airport here and check it out.

Welcome to RFF, Saskvagabond!

Going to the airport to check it out would be great! According to the Saskatoon airport website, the flight is scheduled to arrive at 8:30 AM (about 45 minutes from now), but is listed as being delayed.

Your efforts are much appreciated.

More LIVE from the Stadium:

Both Detours seem to involve costumes. Both are on the field.

First team They did the football side of the detour. Took them 12 minutes

They got their next clue from the coach on the field.

After finishing detour they ran up stadium steps to journalists booths. Maybe U-turn hidden up there?

I'm from Regina, and I spent the afternoon around the Legislative Buildings staking out the Amazing Race. Here's what I have to report:
1. Around 2:45 pm I saw a station set up outside the east side of the building for interviews. A guy/guy team was being interviewed, but I could only see them from behind. They were wearing blue and gray shirts. I was hanging out with a friend, so we walked up and around to where we could hear them interviewing the team. We couldn't actually see the team because they were behind some trees, but we could hear everything they were saying.

2. They were describing a task they had to do where one team member had to jump into a grain hopper and search through lentils for 2 halves of a clue. They said they were the second team to that task after Blake or Brent (?) and Holly. After listening to them for about 15 minutes we had to leave because my friend's baby started crying. But, she had seen another interview station set up behind the building, so we went back there.

3. We arrived behind the building at about 3:15 and saw them setting up another interview station. For the next 45 minutes we saw the workers setting up their equipment. Then, at 4:00 we saw a team come out of the Legislative Building and walk across the lawn to be interviewed. They were a guy/guy team, and I got a picture of them. They were interviewed for the next half hour or so, until I had to leave at 4:30.

It was so much fun! I've lurked on this board for a long time and have always wanted to see the show being filmed live. I couldn't believe it came to my home town and I was able to get a taste of the 'live action'. Hope this info helps! :)

Oh Lily!! BIG :bigwelcome to RFF and thank you so much!

That really does help. We couldn't figure out what they were doing at the Legislature Bldg? And we knew from the airport they headed SE out of town, someone laughed and said generic grain elevator, funny to think they were right!! SO grain task prob first? Mounties at the Heritage center 2nd, then ?? Going to check times.

We would love to see the pic, if you have any trouble posting it you can email it to me and I will do it for you.

And yes, when the race comes to your hometown, it is the best! :hearts:

Ah! What a fantastic day!

I left Saskatoon for Regina around 5:30am, on the assumption that all teams were in Calgary and taking that flight. No such luck. I find out halfway to Regina that some teams have been spotted in Edmonton, taking the earlier flight. I did my best to get to the airport but, believe it or not, Air Canada arrived early. Only three cars were left at the airport. I parked pretty much right beside them and set my camera up in my backseat to film (it's mine until July!). Three teams arrived (M/M, M/M, F/F). They went into the vehicle first, opened a clue, and pulled out a Blackberry. Something told them to go to the parking attendant. It was obviously something more than just a regular "Here's your clue" as all three teams were crowding around and it took about five minutes for them to get their clue ("Trivia question"???). Then they hopped in their cars and drove off.

Only 3 Cars left!
(http://i238.photobucket.com/albums/ff256/pangaeanshift/Amazing%20Race/3carsleft_zps32a478da.jpg)

After reading their blackberry, they went to this guy
(http://i238.photobucket.com/albums/ff256/pangaeanshift/Amazing%20Race/afterblackberry_zps8b2e6d3f.jpg)


With me right behind the last place team. I followed them for a ways until they turned to head south east out of the city and I got caught at a red light behind a slow person. Though if you see a gold Hyundai Accent with half the front bumper missing behind the last place team, that's me!

Following!!
(http://i238.photobucket.com/albums/ff256/pangaeanshift/Amazing%20Race/Following_zpsb32c1f20.jpg)


Defeated, I headed to the Legislature. There was a large section of the parking lot blocked off with two kindly old men guarding it.

(http://i238.photobucket.com/albums/ff256/pangaeanshift/Amazing%20Race/Legislature_zpseb1fde05.jpg)

"Hi, do you know what time Question Period is at?"
"Oh, I'm sorry. We don't work here. We're here just for that Amazing Race thing."

I wandered to the actual Legislature building. There was a man out front.

"Is this open today?"
Looks at me "Are you a contestant?"
"Ummm . . what? No, I'm just a tourist."

I wandered around but saw no flags inside, and none in the park in the immediate vicinity, so I left for Mosaic Stadium.

10am they let all the people in. There was LOTS of downtime here. They were filming the Detour explanations, as well as the video that would play after the first team opens the clue to send them to Mosaic Stadium. For all of them, they took multiple takes, directing us, the audience, to stand, wave our flags, foam fingers, cheer, etc. BUT NO HORNS!! This was the most fascinating part as it was cool to see the behind the scenes aspect of the show. All told, the host, and production was there for an hour or so. They left by 11:20am.

Teams are now heading to . . .
(http://i238.photobucket.com/albums/ff256/pangaeanshift/Amazing%20Race/TeamsarenowheadingtoMosaicStadium_zps231a4647.jpg)

More downtime. I was getting sunburnt. Then, at ~12:35pm, the first team arrived. M/M, highly energetic, and a bit arrogant in their interactions with the crowd. Lets call them Team Bro. They were doing the Football side of the detour.

(http://i238.photobucket.com/albums/ff256/pangaeanshift/Amazing%20Race/Firstteamatdetour_zps8796bd55.jpg)

Detour (from what I can understand): Football or Cheerleading

Football - Run around perimeter of the field, start with football, zig zag back and forth between red marks on ground. Tire drill. Weave through pylons. Then the football burpies (6 or so) (football run on spot, whistle blows, drop to ground and jump up). Then one member tackles a dummy. Other member retrieves a fumbled football. Then one member catches a pass from one of the Riders. The other one must then kick a field goal. If you fail at any of these stages, you start right back over, starting with the lap around the field.

Football Detour Outfit
(http://i238.photobucket.com/albums/ff256/pangaeanshift/Amazing%20Race/Footballoutfit_zps90ab0587.jpg)

Cheerleading - learn and perform a 1 minute long cheerleading routine set to music. Looked complicated.

Cheerleading Detour Outfit
(http://i238.photobucket.com/albums/ff256/pangaeanshift/Amazing%20Race/cheerleadingoutfits_zps5eb6796d.jpg)


Team Bro killed the Football challenge in two tries, and got their next clue. Then, strangely, ran up the stadium steps across the field from us, to the media booths. about a minute or so later, came out and ran out of the stadium. Odd.

ONE AND A HALF HOURS LATER, I decided to check on the Legislature again. I got back to Mosaic at 2:10pm. Three teams were in the Stadium.

And look where I parked!
(http://i238.photobucket.com/albums/ff256/pangaeanshift/Amazing%20Race/cars_zpsba94c846.jpg)

Two doing Football, one doing Cheerleading. Two more teams arrived within the next 30 - 40 minutes. I have decided to not really spoil what happened here until a bit later, but suffice to say, MAJOR placement shifts occurred in front of our eyes. One team took FIVE tries doing the football task. And they looked exhausted. Team Bro had made the detour seem easy. It definitely wasn't.

When only two teams were left, I waited until the second last team got their clue, and I ran to my car (right behind the race cars surprisingly). That team beat me to the pitstop (saw them on the island through my camera lens). Pitstop is on an unnamed island in Wascana Lake. There is a parking lot, marked with a flag, right beside the bridge onto the island. Pitstop is heavily hidden by trees and manmade structures. But I did see the Greeter.

Last place team arrived as I walked up the path to the parking lot/bridge. They parked, camera and sound bolted out and ran across bridge to film the team from that side. Team ended up cutting in front of me as they ran from parking lot to bridge (I'll be the guy in blue shirt that stops and stumbles). Too far away to here the host and whether this is a NEL or not.

Still, AWESOME!

Quebec City (YQB) via Toronto (YYZ)?
Then they may be on flight AC 1114 (Regina to Toronto) which arrives at 15:36. Then transfer to QK 8920 which departs Toronto at 18:05 for Quebec City (arrive 19:43).

I found a casting call announcement for Iqaluit held yesterday at http://iqaluitnow.ca/ai1ec_event/casting-call/?instance_id= (http://iqaluitnow.ca/ai1ec_event/casting-call/?instance_id=).

CASTING CALL

When: May 17, 2013 @ 9:00 am – 5:00 pm
Where: 723 BAYSIDE DOOR
Cost: FREE

Are you an Inuk female, aged between 12 & 16 and 30 & 50? then we are looking for you! Come and try out to be in an adventure feature film. no previous film experience necessary.

Auditions are today Friday May 17 at building 723

please tell your daughter, mom, sister, niece, aunt, friend and cousins!


It's interesting, but it doesn't give any hints as to what they will be doing (or did). The fact that they were racing yesterday says to me that it wasn't so much an audition but instead an immediate participatory event (sort of like at the Regina football stadium).  I don't know much about Inuk culture, but if it was an audition, I'd have to guess some kind of coming of age ceremony given the age of the young girls and the involvement of older women. I've also seen some references to throatsinging (not sure what that means) in the local paper, but I can't see why they would restrict that to certain ages.

The local newspaper had pictures from the Omingmak Frolics a few days ago, which appeared to be snowmobile racing. It's not too hard to imagine the teams going snowmobiling. Perhaps they would have to do a lap in a specified time.

Falling into spring
Town to re-create scarecrow festival for video shoot
by Robert Hirtle


posted on 5/1/13

Lara Carrigan works on the creation of a new pirate for this year’s Great Scarecrow Festival and Antique Fair during a workshop held at the Mahone Bay Centre April 6.
If you drive down Main Street in Mahone Bay in mid-May you might, at first glance, think you’ve entered some kind of time warp.

But don’t panic. There is a very good reason why the hub of this picturesque South Shore town will be looking more as it does in autumn than the way it should be in the spring of the year.

“There’s a company out of Vancouver that’s coming to kind of re-create, if you will, the scarecrow festival,” explains festival spokeswoman Lara Carrigan. “Insight Productions is the name of the company and they’re just coming to film it and they’re hopefully going to air their footage sometime in August before our actual festival.”

Approaching its 17th anniversary, the annual event, which is officially titled the Great Scarecrow Festival and Antique Fair, runs this year from October 4 to 6.

As part of the celebration the town is not only decorated in seasonal autumn garb, but also, and more importantly, with dozens upon dozens of colourful, cleverly crafted, larger-than-life scarecrows.

It is that image that the organizers of the event have been asked to create almost five months in advance.

To that end a group of enthusiastic volunteers gathered at the Mahone Bay Centre in early April to take part in a scarecrow-making workshop.

Not unlike an old-fashioned quilting bee, the gathering’s goal was to create 30 to 40 new scarecrows to be used in the video shoot and then later this year in the actual festival.

“We had a lot of community members and chamber of commerce members come out,” Ms Carrigan says. “We made a whole bunch of new pirates … new witches and we’re in the midst of making new tea ladies, fishermen and harem girls.”

She said that Vicki Lynn Bardon and Colleen White have also been busy sewing costumes that focus on a theme of the town being physically active.

“We’re going to do some curlers and some hockey players so those are going to be some new vignettes that are going to be finished in time to be put out in May,” she explains. “We’ve been working really hard on this to get some new ones made.”

Weather permitting the transformation of the featured section of Main Street will begin on May 17, with the actual filming slated to take place Monday, May 20.

“We’re hoping to get some of the shop owners to put out their own personal scarecrows and kind of decorate the exterior of their shops for fall in the hopes that this group may end up filming the fronts of their store,” Ms Carrigan adds. “So come May 19, your store should look like it does come scarecrow festival.”

Here's a couple of Facebook sightings from Monday in Lunenburg:

at 11.40 I see a group of people at the shipyard looking at BII
Monday at 7:41am

This next one has a lot of detail and stuff to work on.

I had quite the encounter! I watched them do their challenge on the wharf, then nearly ran a team over when the darted out between buildings! That same team ran up to me in my car by Subway and asked directions to the Anglican Church, then I was signing a waiver as I was in the camera shot, another car backed up into the camera guy and drove off! I was fortunate enough to run into the same team again who had the final clue and was trying to find out where to go. It was our dime in a special box and needed to know the relevance it has to the town! All in all very exciting as a am a big fan of the show!

I hope the poor camera guy is OK! Our dime in a special box? Does Canada do special dime coins?

Lunenburg’s Amazing cameo

May 22, 2013 - 8:14pm ANDREA NEMETZ ARTS REPORTER

Residents excited by evidence that The Amazing Race Canada came to town

 Nancy Sixsmith was at the gym in Lunenburg on Monday when she saw people running around with cameras and microphones.

She and three friends sussed out that they were from The Amazing Race Canada, the Canadian version of the hit reality TV adventure show set to hit the airwaves July 15 on CTV.

“We saw contestants doing things and getting clues and tried to pump the producers for information,” Sixsmith said Wednesday. “It didn’t work. It was top secret, classified info.”

Sixsmith, a freelance book editor and longtime fan of The Amazing Race, says she and her friends also looked for Phil Keoghan, host of the U.S. version, to no avail.

The host of the Canadian show hasn’t yet been announced, though prize details have been unveiled. A news release from CTV says the winning team will receive $250,000 cash, free executive first-class airfare for a year for anywhere Air Canada flies and two 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingrays.

Teams competing in The Amazing Race Canada will criss-cross up to 9,000 kilometres, visiting both rural and urban centres “all while exploring (Canada’s) broad cultural and ethnic diversity, wildlife and iconic landmarks,” says the news release.

CTV publicists could not be reached Wednesday for information about the Lunenburg visit.

Sixsmith says she doesn’t want to give away too much information so won’t say how many contestants she saw.

“Like with all The Amazing Race shows, they do things that are local to the culture. They did lobster things and things involved with sausages, making and eating, I think.”

She was disappointed the show stopped by the historic town on a cold, wet holiday Monday.

“It was too bad it was Victoria Day and raining. The town was completely deserted. It’s not normal and did not make Lunenburg look as wonderful as we all think it is.”

She and her friends have already made plans to have a party and watch the episode whenever it airs.

“I know some Lunenburgers will be on camera,” she said, noting she witnessed people being filmed and asked to sign release forms.

There were rumours that the Fisheries Museum of the Atlantic was part of the visit. Representatives of the museum could not be reached for comment.

Sixsmith said she heard The Amazing Race also went to Mahone Bay.

On Wednesday, Twitter was filled with reports about Amazing Race teams being in St. John’s, N.L.

Fans can follow the show on Twitter @AmazingRaceCDA or on Facebook. The show’s website is CTV.ca/TheAmazingRaceCanada.


I don't think we heard about sausage making, but I suppose it's possible. I found this news story from the following tweet that amused me:

Today I was on the bus with people doing Amazing Race Canada. That coulda been us @FarFromSubtle! That could have been us!

I'm not sure about the last one from @MissBlow. Her twitter page says she is from Vancouver, but she travels as a triathlete. One of her recent tweets refers to a thunderstorm and how she misses them because they don't happen often in Vancouver. I'm not sure if they are happening in Newfoundland in May though.

I don't think the rappelling is going to happen at Nathan Phillips Square (City Hall) as per earlier rumours.  That may be a decoy location.  Camera crew (in orange hardhats) and a sound man (with a boom mike) are set up on a platform at the base of the front face (Front St side) of the (under construction) L Tower (Yonge & Front intersection) right now waiting for teams to head back there.

Kelsey_x and WPs spoiling adventure so far....

So - without spoiling the final three racers here is what we've seen.
More picture and video when we can upload them.

Teams arrived from St. John's at 7am ish and were held back by production until 11:15.
They were instructed to go to the "L" Tower.

Kelsey saw one team and clue boxes at the tower (12:23) - the team told their cab to go to 277 Gladstone - which is the Cadbury Candy Factory Museum.
Clue box and race flag seen at Cadbury - along with snarly production... interesting that crew was dressed in "clean room" garb.
Pictures of clue box...

What we suspect is the last team left Cadbury by cab at 15:34 - on their way to the zoo. Tried to follow their cab, but they lost us - last seen going east on Gardiner Expressway at Dufferin.

I have reason to believe that Amazing Race MIGHT BE in winnipeg today. I have a friend who works at Tims who got a phonecall from Amazing Race, and they ordered a bunch of donuts and coffee to pickup for May 25. It may just be for the crew I'm thinking but that means contestants will be in Winnipeg right??

Hey guys! I have made it back to my computer so I thought I would write a little recap of our spoiling day yesterday to accompany the pictures WP posted above. I hope this is the right place to post it.

Originally it was believed that teams would go to Toronto City Hall to rappel off one of the buildings, as per the permit discovered online. I was not far from City Hall, and since Walking Pneumonia was headed to the airport, I headed there around 9AM. After looking all around city hall, and staring at the roof for a while, it was pretty apparent to me that TAR Canada was not coming to City Hall after all. There was a lot of local news there, and it turned out in the morning there was a press conference by the Deputy Mayor (i think) and later in the afternoon the Mayor of Toronto showed up for a press conference. There is a lot of political scandal going on at City Hall right now, and judging by the amount of media there, I didn't think they would come. I texted WP who told me that teams had arrived but was unsure why they had not been released. Finally, after several hours, teams were released from the Toronto Airport (YYZ) and WP overheard that they were headed to the L Tower, which he then informed me.

I googled L Tower, it is an iconic looking building in Toronto, but I was sceptical because it is still being built and is a construction site. I grabbed a taxi (who thought I was crazy for heading to a construction site and tried to ward me off) and headed toward the L Tower on Yonge and the Esplanade. The taxi didn't think he could get me too close, so he went to pull over about 2 blocks away and let me out when I noticed a team with their camera men trying to flag down my taxi! I freaked out (fan girl moment!) and quickly gave the drive some money, jumped out, and told them they could have my cab as I was leaving anyways. They asked me to hold it as they were trying to get the cab pulling up behind me, which ended up stopping. I was able to snap a few pictures of Team #1 (first team I saw, not necessarily their placement) and then luckily I heard them frantically tell the cab driver to take them to 277 Gladstone Ave, which on a quick google search revealed to be the Cadbury Adams factory (yum! Chocolate). I texted WP, and proceeded to head toward the L Tower in hopes of spotting the other two teams, with no luck. WP offered to grab me on his way to 277 Gladstone, and as I waited I noticed a man walking with a camera man, carrying a clue box (picture above in WP's post) and they placed the clue box on the corner, filmed the clue box, picked it up, and walked back to the L Tower.

WP picked me up and we headed on our adventure to Cadbury Adams. When we got there, we saw the cluebox and the race flag on the door (see pictures above). Some very lovely production people were unimpressed with our picture taking and tried to discourage us, but we were not swayed. I estimate we were about 10-15 minutes behind the Team #1 who I saw get in the cab. We hung around Cadbury Adams for a bit, we knew there was atleast one team still inside as their cab was waiting for them. After a while, I think close to an hour, a team (Team #2 for the second team I saw that day) came running out and tried to take the cab that was waiting, no luck though. They quickly found a cab and took off. The cab driver that was waiting stayed a while longer, and then left as the team inside was taking a long time. The final team we saw (Team #3 of the day) came out of the building around 230 and ran down the road to find a Taxi.

We followed them as far as we could, but lost them when they took a quick turn onto the highway. We believe now that they were headed to the zoo. Just a general observation, after seeing Team #1 get a taxi and head to Cadbury Adams, we did not see them again! When we left to follow Team #3, production could be seen packing up and leaving. We were not far behind Team #1, so I'm not sure what happened to them. We didn't see them arrive (or any teams arrive), but we saw Team 2 & 3 leave, but not Team 1. 

Sorry for the long post! Overall, it was so much fun! Such a cool experience for me as someone who has been following (although not posting) RFF for years.

(if I posted this in the wrong place, please forgive, for I am but a noob)

I was curious about the sneak peak of Ep 1 showing Vanessa and Celina (possibly a roadblock, since it's just Celina), and in one shot you could clearly see what looks to be an old railroad trestle, so l did a little research. Thank you Google Maps. They are on the Kettle Valley Railroad Trail, just outside Kelowna. On a hunch I checked out the Myra Canyon Ranch...they have an online guestbook. Here are two entries:

"Our stay with this endlessly hospitable family was a huge pleasure with wonderful food in a beautiful home ! Thank you for providing a great holiday while we were at work on the Bellevue trestle. I'll speak for the six of us in saying that we all look forward to coming for visit again soon ! Amazing Race Canada rigging team, 2.May 2013" (name withheld)

Your place made our 6 days working at the trestles into a work holiday. Thank you for the hospitality, beautiful place, juice and food. Awesome !  Amazing Race Canada rigging team, 2. May 2013 (name withheld)

If you continue on to the next couple of frames, the camera pans to the front of the car, with a view of what is behind it. (to the east and then to the south) It's all parkland. I was thinking more Olympic Island than on the grounds of the RCYC. Of course, that is just for the purpose of this promo pic, and the car could have been moved to the exact area of the finish line.

CTV just aired a very different commercial during Master Chef Aug 7. Jon Montgomery says something to the effect that "for the last 4 weeks, Canada has watched the teams race around Canada. But there was one place they stopped to look around." It was for "Canada's North" ...Nunavut!!!! So is this really a non-leg?
