They were an inconsistent team, at times looking like the only team who posed a real threat to [[Natalie & Meaghan]]'s dominance, and other times scraping along at the bottom of the pack. In the 10th leg, they fell behind early due to Audrey's poor navigation and Alain struggling with tasks. Though they still had a chance to survive, they missed several of their mussels at the Detour, allowing [[Ryan & Rob]] to overcome their [[Speed Bump]] and pass them, eliminating them in 5th.

Alain Chanoine and Audrey Tousignant-Maurice are a Dating, and later Engaged, team on The Amazing Race Canada 2.

They were an inconsistent team, at times looking like the only team who posed a real threat to Natalie & Meaghan's dominance, and other times scraping along at the bottom of the pack. In the 10th leg, they fell behind early due to Audrey's poor navigation and Alain struggling with tasks. Though they still had a chance to survive, they missed several of their mussels at the Detour, allowing Ryan & Rob to overcome their Speed Bump and pass them, eliminating them in 5th.
