Sorry for the delay!

We start with Jon saying safety is important. Dennis/Durrell, Craig/Catherine and Ali / Court cannot continue due to Covid. Because of this Kathy/Jully and Cassie/Jahmeek are given a second chance.

Weird but enjoyable leg. But probably the weakest of the season so far.
EP drama was so quick, that I understand why they skipped that for last week promo. Wonder what is the leg limit that they must be used, cause all 3 EPs still in play, with 3 really strong teams.
Interesting the split mental and physical tasks tasks this time around, with both knot and puzzle task being mental that could allow teams to catch-up.
Bev and Veronica struggling in this leg was an interesting edit.
Sad for losing teams due to COVID, wonder if they'll be brought back if they test negative. Considering production time and quarantine time, even if they came back, it would probably happen 2 or 3 legs later. Wonder how they built the rule book around this. Curious how they balance NEL legs when they can't be completely sure of how many teams will be active during a leg.

Déjà vu.

Between Australia and now Canada, I'm even more amazed 33 had no instance of COVID.


Not the strongest episode considering the leg was basically determined with the knot task though it was interesting to see the returning teams and the brewing rivalry. Rafting has been done multiple times though at least the scenery was nice. The slide puzzle was not much but it did have the fun moment of Jesse & Marika solving it. I'll admit that bicycle task was pretty unique and a nice nod.

Cedric downgrading from a ranch to a hat.  :funny:
Beverley & Veronica really had one of those days where nothing went right.

Cassie & Jahmeek becoming Arun & Natalia 2.0


Now we get a week off.
