The Amazing Race Canada

Get ready for the race of a lifetime, Canada. In an exclusive on-air message to Canadians during tonight’s episode of "The Amazing Race", host Phil Keoghan announced on behalf of CTV that the network has ordered "The Amazing Race Canada", a Canadian-produced, complementary version of the hit international series. CTV has licensed the Canadian format rights from Disney-ABC Domestic Television and has selected Insight Productions to produce the series in Canada, with the support of Bertram van Munster and Elise Doganieri’s Profiles Television.

Set to anchor CTV’s Summer 2013 schedule, "The Amazing Race Canada" will provide a uniquely Canadian take on the original series, with competitors discovering the world within the borders of Canada. Though the series' specific destinations won't be revealed until it airs, Canada offers divergent topography and disparate locales that are bound to add to the excitement and complexity of the show and its challenges, from Vancouver Island’s tropical rainforest, Alberta’s parched Badlands, the peaks of the Rockies, and the barren tundra of the Great White North, to the Boreal forests of Ontario and Quebec, the sea-faring ports of the Maritimes, the fjords of Newfoundland, and the teeming metropolises and undiscovered towns in between.
