The Amazing Race Canada 6 (also known as The Amazing Race Canada: Heroes Edition)[1] is the sixth 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 ten teams of two, consisting of everyday Canadian heroes, in a race across Canada and the world.[2] The grand prize included a CA$250,000 cash payout, a trip for two around the world, and two 2018 Chevrolet Traverse Redlines.[2] This season visited six provinces, one territory, and two additional countries and travelled over 50,000 kilometres (31,000 mi) during eleven legs. Starting in Colwood, British Columbia, racers travelled through British Columbia, the Yukon, Indonesia, Ontario, Manitoba, Prince Edward Island, Mexico, New Brunswick, and Alberta before finishing in Banff, Alberta. New twists introduced in this season include the Blind Double U-Turn and U-Turns placed at Detour decision points. The season premiered on CTV on July 3, 2018,[3] with the season finale airing on September 11, 2018.

Engaged first responders Courtney Berglind and Adam Kovacs were the winners of this season, while Mountie siblings Taylor and Courtney Callens finished in second place, and friends and coaches Dylan Elias and Kwame Osei finished in third place.[4]
