With TARC leaving Canada for the first time this season, those who were unhappy about the show trying to be, you know, competitive with all of the other international TAR franchises, were upset with crossing the border. Enjoy as we delve into the casual fan once more! Although some complaints are funny good rather than funny bad this week. I hope more challenges take place here rather than overseas. Our country is huge and offers diverse opportunities to explore areas not many Canadians get to discover for one reason or another. What an opportunity to brag a bit too!

While Season 4 was won by two dating women—Toronto's Steph LeClair and Kristen McKenzie, who broke through the gender barrier to become the first female winners on the show—Season 5 has been won by the first gay male couple. The experience had a significant impact upon Mitskopoulos' identity. In a CTV interview, Mitskopoulos spoke about how the couple experienced challenges in their personal lives when they were dating while he was in the closet. I told my family and friends, but just being in front of all of these people, and being able to show that this is my boyfriend, the man I am in-love with….

Brent & Sean
We live in a very special time in Canada. The Amazing Race Canada is especially special because we get to explore and see our beautiful country on the screen. Shows like this make me proud to be Canadian and be from the best country in the world. Here is my cast assessment and breakdown of the cast. I love watching the pre-race videos and then watching how the race effects the contestants and their relationships.
They proved to be the plucky comic relief for this season of the race with Sean's tendency to vomit during intense moments of stress. While they were doubtful of their abilities as first, they proved to be very consistent racers as, despite being non-eliminated in Leg 9, they constantly finished at the top half of the standings with two leg wins under their belt. In the finale, Brent would continuously struggle at the Cycling Roadblock falling off the narrow beam. He would eventually complete the Roadblock after 20 attempts, but this pushed them so far behind that they ended up in 3rd place. These East Coasters carry themselves with charm and quick wit, making them an unforgettable duo. The small town brothers decided to pursue their dreams and move to Toronto to study design and experience the city life. The laidback, down-to-earth siblings have big, endearing personalities, typical of those from this part of the country. Brent and Sean try not to take life too seriously and maintain a great sense of humour in their everyday adventures. They may not be the most physically fit team in the race but they're not worried about that. As they both say, "Our regional appeal and charm will get us far on the race!
