Amazing Race Canada 4 Trivia

1. How many Road Blocks did teams find in Jasper National Park in the first leg of the race?

From Quiz Road Blocks of "The Amazing Race Canada 4"

Answer: Two

As is typical in the first leg of the race, teams faced not one, but two Road Blocks, with each needing to be completed by a different team member. In the first, the selected team member needed to climb on the sides and monkey bars below the Jasper SkyTram, suspended midway up Whistler's Mountain, to collect their clue. In the second, they had to rappel into a canyon, hike through a river, and search the brush with an avalanche beacon to locate their clue in a hidden cache. This being said, Kelly and Anthony didn't complete their first Road Block, instead taking a penalty, while four other racers were unable to finish the SkyTram task due to inclement weather.

Answer: Eight

In Leg 2, teams found their first Detour task in Calgary, Alberta. The first choice was 'Sim', where Joel and Ashley got their next task by completing a training simulation involving cranes and heavy machinery. When they both completed the simulation in a combined six minutes, they headed to the Pit Stop. In 'Swim', the eight remaining teams ended up heading to a fish hatchery where they had to corral trout in a pen and transfer all the fish into a smaller container using nets.

Answer: Cape Breton Island

Starting their ninth leg of the race, the remaining five teams were told to fly from Havana, Cuba in the Caribbean to the city of Sydney in Nova Scotia, four thousand kilometers away. Upon arrival, teams needed to hop into brand new Chevrolet Malibu cars and drive themselves and reach the Canadian Coast Guard College in Sydney. There, teams hopped into boats and, using proper nautical lingo, guide their drivers to one of two locations out in the water. Once they found a marked body, one team member needed to dive into the sea and retrieve the dummy to bring it back to the shore. Once they returned the right body to an ambulance they would receive their next clue.

Answer: Ontario

Heading out from Aldershot GO Station outside of Hamilton, Ontario, departing immediately from the sixth Pit Stop, teams were told to take the rails to Union Station in Downtown Toronto and then to Kingston, Canada's first capital. While Steph and Kristen ended up getting a fifteen hour advantage over the last place team, catching the penultimate VIA Rail train out of Union Station, all teams were equalized heading to the clue box waiting for them at Vader's Maple Syrup in Springer Market Square.

From Quiz "The Amazing Race Canada 4" [2]

Answer: Cai Be

Opening their clues on the Peace Bridge in Calgary, Alberta, teams discovered that they would be leaving Canada in Leg 3, bound for the Southeast Asian nation of Vietnam. Their eleven thousand kilometer flight would connect them through Vietnam and Hong Kong before arriving in Ho Chi Minh City, where they would head one hundred kilometers out of the city and into the Mekong Delta. After finding a tourist dock and signing up for a water taxi, teams would leave the next morning and go on a shopping trip in the floating marketplace to get their next clue.

From Quiz "The Amazing Race Canada 4" [1]

Answer: Northwest Territories

For the first time, teams headed out for a race around Canada (and more) from one of its three territories. In this first leg of the race, the ten participating teams of two lined up on the frozen waters of Frame Lake outside Yellowknife, the capital of the Northwest Territories, and were sent off on a life-changing adventure. For their first task, they had to head to the ceremonial circle at the Prince of Wales Northern Heritage Centre and locate wooden signs (amongst many) teaching them how to learn the phrase 'travel safely across the land' in a First Nations language. When properly recited they could continue to the airport.

Answer: Calgary

Teams ended up racing on foot through Downtown Calgary in most of the first half of Leg 2, inevitably reaching a physical Road Block task involving rappelling down the side of the fifty-eight storey Calgary Tower. Once the selected team members descended the entirety of the looming structure, they would be able to receive their next clue from the tower mascot (also a tower). Antoine, Emmett, Kristen, Joel, Lowell, Frankie, Anne, Kelly, and Yvette were the participants in this frightening task.

From Quiz Detours of "The Amazing Race Canada 4"

Answer: Coconuts

In Leg 3, teams completed tasks in and around the Mekong Delta in Vietnam. In 'Hydrate', teams transported sixty coconuts downriver in a sampan while in 'Vibrate', they learned a ceremonial drum dance. The 'Hyrdate' task proved extremely physical as Anne and Tanya were marred, ironically, by dehydration. Joel and Ashley, Kelly and Kate, Rita and Yvette, and Frankie and Amy ended up completing 'Vibrate', learning the complex moves in a Vietnamese temple, while Jillian and Emmett, Anne and Tanya, Steph and Kristen, Julie and Lowell and Stephane and Antoine transported coconuts.

From Quiz "The Amazing Race Canada 4" [5]

Answer: Rita and Yvette

After completing their task at the Canadian Coast Guard College, Rita and Yvette located their Speed Bump marker which sent them to the Christmas Island Post Office. After delivering two bags of letters to their destination, both team members needed to properly stamp all mail within the sacks before they would be able to continue on with the race. All other teams headed to the town of Iona, meanwhile, to find their Cape Breton-inspired Detour task.

From Quiz "The Amazing Race Canada 4" [4]

Answer: Soccer

Teams leaving Springer Market Square were told to find their vehicles-- all-new Chevrolet Cruzes-- at Clarence Street where they would need to solve a safe puzzle to unlock tablets they could use to unlock their cars. Following this, teams were given a Detour task, a choice between 'On the Field' and 'Offshore'. In 'On the Field', teams needed to head to Queen's University where both team members needed to complete a series of soccer drills. The catch? They needed to do so while wearing zorb balls, easily making the task all the more difficult.

From Quiz "The Amazing Race Canada 4" [3]

Answer: Haida

After the totem pole task, teams drive to the Spirit Lake Trail in Skidegate where, at the end of the path of old growth forest, they would need to recreate two works of contemporary Haida art. What teams needed to discover was that the pieces to their puzzles would not indicate correct sides, and while all pieces would be able to fit together, they would not resemble a traditional puzzle. After completing the puzzles, teams would be able to drive themselves to the Queen Charlotte City Harbour to catch a seaplane.

From Quiz "The Amazing Race Canada 4" [2]

Answer: Ducks

After their market run, teams were told to take a ferry from Tan Phong Island and return to Cai Be where, at a local field known as Ben Pha Cai Be Qua Tan Phong, they could commence their Road Block. For this task, one member of each team needed to herd twenty ducks into their pen to continue. Following the task, both members needed to carry ducks to the nearby Cai Be Land Market to get their next clue. Stephane, Kate, Jillian, Rita, Tanya, Ashley, Steph, Julie, and Amy completed this task.

From Quiz "The Amazing Race Canada 4" [1]

Answer: Jasper

Teams raced to the airport to fly to Calgary, Alberta where, after heading to the train station, they needed to make their way to Jasper National Park. At the Jasper Train Station, teams loaded into Chevrolet Colorado trucks and drove to the Jasper SkyTram to find their first clue and first Road Block task of the race. Teams heading to Calgary were split onto two different flights with four teams on the earlier plane and six on the later.

From Quiz Road Blocks of "The Amazing Race Canada 4"

Answer: Stephane and Antoine

In this Road Block task, team members needed to 'have all their ducks in a row' to ensure that they herded twenty waterfowl into their pens in Cai Be, Vietnam. While many teams had minimal issues transporting their ducks with flagged poles, Stephane seemed to work counter to the tasks's requirements, in turn assisting other teams in getting ahead of the game. As a result, he took a four-hour penalty on the task, resulting in an elimination. The roster for this task included Stephane, Kate, Jillian, Rita, Tanya, Ashley, Steph, Julie, and Amy. Following this, teams transported two ducks to a local market.

From Quiz Detours of "The Amazing Race Canada 4"

Answer: Shine Your Light

In Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam in Leg 4, teams ended the leg with a Detour task taking them to either Glow SkyBar or Kingdom Karaoke. In the former task, 'Flip-Flop', they had to learn the intricate movements of flair bartending, creating a drink called 'Hello, Vietnam' to the exacting specifications of their bartending trainers. In the latter, 'V-Pop', teams instead had to learn a song, "Shine Your Light", in Vietnamese and perform the duet for a crowd of patrons at a local karaoke bar. Joel and Ashley, Steph and Kristen, Jillian and Emmett, and Anne and Tanya completed 'Flip-Flop' while Kelly and Kate, Frankie and Amy, Rita and Yvette, and Julie and Lowell completed 'V-Pop'.

From Quiz "The Amazing Race Canada 4" [4]

Answer: Two

Instead of 'On the Field', teams could complete the 'Offshore' Detour task in which both team members needed to properly rig a sailboat at the Kingston Yacht Club, then manage to steer it out to a marked buoy to claim their next clue. Following the task, teams found a Double U-Turn board awaiting them outside Kingston Penitentiary, and it was used twice-- once by Steph and Kristen to stop Jillian and Emmett, and once by Jillian and Emmett to stop Joel and Ashley. As a result, both U-Turned teams had to complete 'Offshore'.

From Quiz "The Amazing Race Canada 4" [3]

Answer: Prince Rupert

After hopping onto a seaplane, teams were flown to the city of Prince Rupert on Mainland British Columbia where, upon arrival, they needed to hop into a brand new Camaro and drive themselves to the statue of Charles Melville Hays in front of Prince Rupert City Hall. This would be teams' fourth flight of the leg, certainly pushing the envelope for flights in a single round of the race. Reaching the statue, teams located a clue box containing their second Road Block of the race.

From Quiz "The Amazing Race Canada 4" [2]

Answer: Kelly and Kate

Following the Road Block delivery, Kate and Kelly, who placed last in the previous non-elimination leg, were required to make their way through the Cai Be Land Market to complete their Speed Bump task. For this extra task, the duo needed to carry twenty toads through the marketplace from one stall to another, at which point they would be able to receive their Detour clue. The additional task, in the grand scheme of things, only dropped them one spot in the standings.

From Quiz "The Amazing Race Canada 4" [1]

Answer: Four

At the Jasper SkyTram, teams located their first Road Block which asked participants 'who's ready to let it all hang out?' In this task, the chosen teammate needed to ascend in the SkyTram, suit up, and head halfway up Whistler's Mountain to climb outside the tram car to the bottom, traverse a set of monkey bars, and climb a ladder on the other side to grab their next clue. If they fell they would go to the back of the line. On their subsequent attempts, they would be able to receive assistance from a guide line. Stephane, Emmett, Anne, Ashley, Steph, Amy, Lowell, Kelly, Yvette, and Brandon signed up to complete this task, but Kelly and Kate and Anthony and Brandon both opted to take a four hour penalty by opting out of the task. As they day wore on, several teams were unable to complete the task due to rain and were asked to wait a predetermined amount of time before receiving their clues.

From Quiz Detours of "The Amazing Race Canada 4"

Answer: Two

In Hamilton, teams either pursued the arts or went to the local industries. In 'Art Rock', teams went to the Collective Arts Brewing Company and completed an art-related task, spray painting a beer label using stencils and specific colours in a required order. This was finished by Julie and Lowell, Frankie and Amy, Rita and Yvette, and Joel and Ashley. In 'Dry Dock', teams needed to head to Heddle Marine Services to learn how to weld. When both team members welded eight inches of steel and prevented all leaks, they could head to the Pit Stop. Steph and Kristen and Jillian and Emmett finished this one.

From Quiz "The Amazing Race Canada 4" [5]

Answer: Frankie and Amy

Finishing the Detour task at the Scottish Highland Village, teams were told to proceed on foot to their next clue at the Double U-Turn Board nearby. When teams located the Blackhouse on the museum grounds, they would either make their choice or head back to the Detour to complete the previous task they did not attempt. This meant that Joel and Ashley and Rita and Yvette were forced to complete the 'Feel the Burn' task since they initially took 'Feel the Rhythm'. After this, teams headed to the Fortress of Louisbourg where, putting on French military garb, they were required to push six barrels of gunpowder uphill to the battlements and fire a cannon to obtain their next clue.

From Quiz "The Amazing Race Canada 4" [2]

Answer: 'Hydrate'

In Cai Be, teams chose either 'Vibrate' or 'Hydrate' for their Detour task. In 'Vibrate', they headed to a local temple to learn a complex, traditional drum dance, memorizing the ceremony to get their next clue. In 'Hydrate', teams needed to locate marked sampans on the Mekong Canal and use them to transport sixty coconuts downriver to another dock. Once they moved five dozen coconuts from the boat and down a path to a gazebo, they could continue on. Joel and Ashley, Kelly and Kate, Rita and Yvette, and Frankie and Amy chose 'Vibrate' while Jillian and Emmett, Anne and Tanya, Steph and Kristen, Julie and Lowell, and Stephane and Antoine chose 'Hydrate'.

From Quiz Detours of "The Amazing Race Canada 4"

Answer: Queen's University

In Kingston, Ontario, teams needed to find Nixon Field on the Queen's University campus to attempt the 'Off the Field' option of their Detour. For this task, each team member needed to don a zorb ball and proceed down the field completing a series of team-oriented soccer drills, hindered in movement by the bulky accessory. If they could work together and complete the series of tasks in twenty-five seconds, they could continue on with the race. Steph and Kristen, Jillian and Emmett, and Joel and Ashley finished this task.

From Quiz "The Amazing Race Canada 4" [5]

Additionally, teams were given a challenge early in the leg to drive the least distance in the leg using the Ford Teen Driver System Driving Report. Both Jillian and Emmett and Frankie and Amy won the challenge with a total distance of 215 kilometres, so both teams won $5,000.

Steph and Kristen maintained their lead despite not using their Express Pass, winning their third consecutive leg of the race and taking with them a trip for two to Rome, Italy courtesy of Hotels.com.

Answer: Kelly and Kate

Following the Road Block, teams took a water taxi back to Prince Rupert and needed to drive themselves out of the city towards Port Edwards where they would need to hit the next Pit Stop mat at the North Pacific Cannery National Historic Site. Steph and Kristen, who led through the entirety of the leg upon arriving back in Canada, kept their lead landing on the mat, winning their first leg of the race and a trip for two to New York City courtesy of Hotels.com.

Answer: Stephane and Antoine

After their Detour task, the teams ended up receiving their final clue of Leg 3, sending them the Mekong Lodge via water taxi. Here, Joel and Ashley, who started the leg at the market in last place, ended up placing first, winning themselves a trip for two to Tokyo, Japan courtesy of Hotels.com. Behind them, four teams ended up receiving penalties for taking water taxis from Tan Phong to Cai Be instead of the ferry.

From Quiz "The Amazing Race Canada 4" [1]

Answer: Anthony and Brandon

After completing their second Road Block task, teams were informed that they would need to head to their first Pit Stop of the race at Pyramid Island in the middle of Pyramid Lake.

After a long leg of the race, Kelly and Kate and Anthony and Brandon had to serve their four hour penalties and, due to this stipulation, the latter team found themselves unable to stay afloat and they were eliminated with less than an hour remaining on their countdown.

Answer: Frankie and Amy

At the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum in Hamilton, Ontario, teams were required to choose one member to hop into a de Havilland Chipmunk, ascend to two thousand feet, and take the controls to perform a 360 degree banked turn without the help of their pilot. If they could maintain the appropriate consistency throughout their difficult turn, they would be able to return to terra firma and continue the race. Frankie and Amy ended up using their Express Pass to skip this task, pushing ahead of all other teams early in the leg.

From Quiz Detours of "The Amazing Race Canada 4"

Answer: Joel and Ashley

Teams opting out of the highly-physical, coordination-centric 'On the Field' task instead went to the Kingston Yacht Club for 'Offshore', a task requiring that they rig up a sailboat and sail it out into the river to collect their next clue from a buoy floating in the water. Frankie and Amy, Rita and Yvette, and Julie and Lowell ended up completing this task of their own accord while Joel and Ashley and Jillian and Emmett were forced to complete both Detour tasks, having been forced at the Double U-Turn at Kingston Penitentiary.
