Could this be team #7? Alex Simon, 21, Kamloops, BC. Sydney Robillard, 24, Lethbridge, AB.

Nearly gasped when this just now popped up on my Facebook feed, as I follow the CTV Lethbridge affiliate.

Unfortunately it's not a good news story, they're missing after a light-aircraft flight. If it is them and they're not found safe, that could most likely derail the airing of this season altogether.

I'm not so sure, the women looks a little too young.

Not her after looking closer. The woman in the news story has more squarish black frames (the racer has gold frames) and lip rings.

Ah well, not much longer anyway. The cast announcements pretty much have to be out next week. Leaving enough time to hype it up and the racers to do their local media blitz.

Found some additional info on Team 10 F/F, Andrea Croxen. Not only she is a certified Yoga Instructor, she's also an Actress and a Model as well.


Quote
Born in Montreal, Quebec, on July 21st, 1987, Andrea Croxen has pursued acting since the age of 17, while working full time and finishing her studies in Public Relations. She has recently decided to leave the corporate world to dedicate her time to her passion for acting. Andrea has taken acting many acting studies and workshops , but she says where she really fell in love and felt she acquired most experience would have to be her debut in the cult film "15:01" as the lead actress. Since then she has been hungry to learn more and more and to push her talent to join the list of great actresses whom she admires. From comedy to action and drama, Andrea is a free spirit and a true chameleon in her craft. While on her journey towards acting, she also fell in love with yoga and is looking into getting her yoga teaching certificate done in the upcoming year. Thus she will bring both talents into play in her career as an actress.

Would they be considered the first all-female team of French Canada? Rita & Yvette were born in Montreal, but raised in Edmonton.

Found a video of Andrea on YouTube (type in her name, it's an interview), she has the Quebecois accent :D

Yeah, I'm kind of sad about that... You would think that after 5 seasons you would get at least ONE team from Saskatchewan... same goes for New-Brunswick.
I know you don't choose the teams base on location, but I mean come on.... With a population of one million it's almost impossible NOT to have interesting teams.

Final teams are on the site.

Dan & Riya ( :groan:) are the YouTube team, Adam & Andrea are the siblings, and Zed & Shabbir are a father/son team (with the father having recovered from cancer...)!

As an Ontario resident dreaming of one day being on the race, it would be nice if they didn't simply assume Toronto = Ontario.  I realize the population of Toronto is huge but come on, 3 teams out of 10?!   Would love to see a northern Ontario team (of course I am biased).
