Route Markers[]

The order of departure from Pine Island as follows:

  1. Jet & Dave (6:15 am)
  2. Tim Sr. & Tim Jr. (7:56 am)
  3. Vanessa & Celina (8:26 am)
  4. Jody & Cory (8:40 am)
  5. Holly & Brett (9:15 am)

Teams must fly to Quebec City, Quebec. Upon arrival, they had to travel to Lévis Forts National Historic Site, where they had to search for their next clue as it would open the next morning.

At Lévis Forts, teams must have to board a ferry across the Saint Lawrence River and take the Old Quebec Funicular to Château Frontenac, where they find the statue of Samuel de Champlain at Dufferin Terrace, where they found their next clue.

Choice A: Sculpt It

Teams must have to travel to the Place Royale near Notre-Dame-des-Victoires and choose an ice block with an outline of a star, house, or boat. They then had to chisel the ice to create an ice sculpture in order to get their next clue.

Jet & Dave, Tim Sr. & Tim Jr., and Vanessa & Celina chose this task.

Choice B: Spot It

Teams must have to find a replica of the Rue du Petit-Champlain mural in the Parc de la Cetière with missing items. They then had to find the original mural at 102 Rue du Petit-Champlain and place magnets with Québécois French words in the appropriate spots in order to receive their next clue.

Holly & Brett and Jody & Cory chose this task.

Teams must make their way to Place de l'Université-du-Québec for their next clue.

"Who's ready... Batter Up?"

The assigned team member must have to take orders from two patrons in Québécois French. Team members then had to find the correct ingredients from their order and prepare four crêpes, two savory and two sweet. A chef demonstrated how to properly make and plate the crêpes. Once they correctly made and served all four crêpes, the chef gave them their next clue.

The Roadblock performers per team are underlined:

Teams must make their way to the Plains of Abraham, where they had to play a lacrosse and each team member had to catch a pass from their partner and score a goal in order to receive their next clue.

Teams must make their way to The Battlefields Park to check in.

For coming in first place, Jet & Dave won two round trip plane tickets to anywhere in Europe, provided by Air Canada.

For coming in last place, Tim Sr. & Tim Jr. will have to perform a Speed Bump at some point during the next leg of the race.
