Davison Orchards will appear on a 2022 episode of Amazing Race Canada, after the reality show set down in Vernon May 6 and 7 for filming.

"It was the third stop on the tour and the teams had to make five mini apple pies with lattice tops," said Tamra Davison from the family-run business. "Rachel Davison was the judge and she loved it."

Kudos to using Republica's "Ready to Go (North American Version)" as the BGM because 90's music > all.

Pretty much, as there's a To be Announced slot exactly at 9pm.

BTW, seems unlikely that we'll get live stream sources for this. At least not from my usual sources. Hoping Alen has some good news in this front.

Some interesting info here: Among others, the race was delayed 4 times. Some teams originally cast did not return and some tasks were moved outside to reduce risk of covid 19

Whether any of the cast or crew came down with COVID during the run of the series is something viewers will have to discover for themselves.

Does anyone else find that section of the article a bit odd and even slightly ominous? Not confirming if anyone got COVID on the race? Why would they not, unless a team did in fact catch COVID?

Because it's the first thing on anyone's minds considering it's a show about travel and logistics.
