Saint John Hosts Next Week’s Amazing Race Canada
SAINT JOHN – The Port City will be the location of next week’s episode of CTV’s Amazing Race Canada.
This, of course, isn’t news if you tuned into last night’s episode when this was first revealed.
The Saint John episode, which will air next Tuesday night at 9 p.m. Atlantic Time, will be the penultimate episode of the season.
“We were thrilled to have The Amazing Race Canada visit Saint John for our semi-final episode,” said Mark Lysakowski, executive producer of Insight Productions, in a release. “Our entire team had a great time during our stay, and hope everyone enjoys seeing the city front and centre, as our final four teams fight it out to make it to the season finale.”
The Department of Tourism, Heritage and Culture, the City of Saint John and local businesses and Discover Saint John worked with CTV and the show’s producers to showcase Saint John as part of this season.
“It’s beyond exciting to be one of the stops on The Amazing Race Canada, CTV’s number-one summer program,” said Victoria Clarke, executive director of Discover Saint John. “This is a fantastic opportunity to significantly raise the profile of Saint John on a national stage as a tourism destination and place to do business.”
It will be a great watch, especially if contestants have to navigate the uptown’s one-way streets.
