Season chronology |
The Amazing Race Canada 2 is the second season of The Amazing Race Canada, a Canadian reality competition show based on the American series The Amazing Race. Hosted by Jon Montgomery, it featured eleven teams of two, each with a pre-existing relationship, in a race across Canada and the world. The grand prize included a CA$250,000 cash payout, two Chevrolet Silverado "High Country Edition" trucks, free gasoline for life from Petro-Canada, and the ability to fly for free anywhere for a year with Air Canada. This season visited seven provinces, one territory, and two additional countries and travelled over 40,000 kilometres (25,000 mi) during twelve legs. Starting in Jasper National Park, racers travelled through Alberta, British Columbia, Hong Kong, Macau, the Yukon, Manitoba, France, Quebec, Prince Edward Island, New Brunswick, and Ontario before finishing in Ottawa. A new twist introduced in this season was international travel. The season premiered on CTV on July 8, 2014, with the season finale airing on September 21, 2014.[1]
Best friends Michael Henry and Peter Schmalz were the winners of this season, while Canada women's national ice hockey teammates Natalie Spooner and Meaghan Mikkelson finished in second place, and bartenders and co-workers Ryan Steele and Rob Goddard finished in third place.
