One thought on “The Amazing Race Canada returns July 5 on CTV, as all 10 teams revealed”

  1. I was just trying to contact the Producer / director of the Amazing Race Canada promo commercial.
    Instead of holding up his arm, and after a short “pregnant” pause saying “Go”!
    Did you ever give consideration to him turning his head and saying, “Line”?
    Just a thought.
