The Amazing Race Canada 9
The Amazing Race Canada 9 is the ninth 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, each with a pre-existing relationship, in a race across Canada. The grand prize included a CA$250,000 cash payout powered by Samsung, a trip for two around the world, and two Chevrolet Colorado ZR2s. This season visited six provinces and travelled over 12,000 kilometres (7,500 mi) during ten legs. Starting in Winnipeg, racers travelled through Manitoba, Alberta, British Columbia, Ontario, Quebec, and Nova Scotia before finishing in Halifax. New elements introduced in this season include the Assist, which allowed teams to only perform part of select tasks, and the Blind Double Pass, which allowed teams to use the Pass anonymously. The season premiered on CTV on July 4, 2023, and concluded on September 19, 2023.
Dating couple Ty Smith and Kat Kastner were the winners of this season, while dating couple Tyler Turner and Kayleen Vanderee finished in second place, and friends Ben Chutta and Anwar Ahmed finished in third place.
On November 28, 2022, CTV announced the renewal of the show for a ninth season. Filming for the season was listed as occurring during Spring 2023. Following the 11th Canadian Screen Awards on April 12, 2023, producer Mark Lysakowski announced that filming would begin during the next week.
Filming began in late April in Winnipeg. On April 24, 2023, the second leg was filmed in Smithers, British Columbia. Racers were in Greater Victoria on April 29. On May 5, the show was spotted in Niagara-on-the-Lake. The show was in Toronto on May 12 with Jon Montgomery and the production crew opening the Toronto Stock Exchange. Later in the day, racers were spotted at Kensington Market. On May 14, 2023, the final leg was filmed in Eastern Passage, Nova Scotia.
This season introduced a new twist called the Assist. Given to each team at the start of the season, teams could use the Assist in select challenges through the sixth leg and only have to perform part of the challenge.
Casting for the ninth season opened on November 28, 2022. Casting was initially set to close on January 6, 2023, but was extended to January 8, 2023.
Chevrolet, Desjardins Group, Expedia, Disney Studios (promoting Haunted Mansion), and GURU Organic Energy returned as sponsors. New sponsors included Samsung, Staples Canada, and the Canadian Armed Forces.
The cast includes Impact wrestlers Gail Kim and Gisele Shaw, Canada's Drag Race contestants Jermaine Aranha and Justin Baird, actor Joel Oulette, Paralympic snowboarder Tyler Turner, and Ty Smith, a survivor of the 2018 Humboldt Broncos bus crash. The cast was revealed on June 21, 2023.
