At the conclusion of last night’s big buzz series premiere of CTV’s THE AMAZING RACE CANADA, it was revealed that Treena and Tennille, fiercely competitive and often differing twin sisters from Hamilton, ON, were the first team eliminated from the competition series. Although the twins were not the last team to arrive at the mat following a dramatic foot race against the cowboys, their victory was cut short in a shocking twist when host Jon Montgomery revealed they had failed to grab BOTH clues from the Niagara Parks Butterfly Conservatory, resulting in a 30-minute penalty.
Next week on THE AMAZING RACE CANADA (airing Monday, July 22 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on CTV and live on CTV Mobile), the eight remaining teams race to Vancouver, BC, where they become tangled in the urban jungle and tripped up on the ice. The remaining competitors vying for the historic half a million dollar grand prize are:
1. HAL and JOANNE – Married “BodyBreak” Fitness Icons
2. HOLLY and BRETT– Married Doctors
3. JAMIE and PIERRE – Best Friends
4. JET and DAVE – Best Friends
5. JODY and CORY – Brothers
6. KRISTEN and DARREN – Dating Couple
7. TIM SR. and TIM JR. – Father and Son
8. VANESSA and CELINA – Sisters
