Once at Edmonton; teams would travel to The Source in Southgate Centre. They would receive their next clue and a Samsung Galaxy Watch that would track how many steps they took. Whichever team had the fewest combined amount of steps at the end of the leg would win an additional prize.

Teams must travel to the High Level Bridge Streetcar and board a Streetcar.

Once on the Streetcar, teams would have the option to One Way a team, with two slots available and anonymously. Lauren & Joanne used the first slot of the One Way on Trish & Amy and forced them to do the Celebrate Detour. Sarah & Sam used the second slot of the One Way on Gilles & Sean and also forced them to do the Celebrate Detour.

Choice A: Celebrate
Teams must travel to Royal Alberta Museum where they would learn to sing and dance to a medley of South African Songs. They would then join a choir and preform said song and dance. Once the judge is satisfied with their performance, teams would receive their next clue.

Only Meaghan & Marie willingly chose this task. Gilles & Sean, and Trish & Amy were forced to do this task due to the One Way.

Choice B: Elevate
Teams must travel to 100 Street Funicular where they would solve two nearly identical puzzles, one at the top of the Funicular and one at the bottom. However, some pieces from the top puzzle were for the bottom puzzle and vice versa, requiring teams to use the funicular to transport pieces up and down, though only one puzzle piece could be taken on the funicular at a time. Once both puzzles are complete, teams would receive their next clue.

Aarthy & Thinesh, Anthony & James, Dave & Irina, Sarah & Sam, and Lauren & Joanne chose this task.

Teams would travel to Old Strathcona Antique Mall were they were instructed to find Jon. Unbeknownst to them, they would have to find a bobble-head of Jon Montgomery and bring it to the cashier to receive their next clue.

Teams would travel to Ozawa Pavilion at the Kurimoto Japanese Garden where they would find their next clue.

The team member assigned to this Roadblock would have to arrange flowers according to the Ikebana. Teams would have to learn this by a silent demonstration, then arrange the flowers perfectly to match the example. Flowers could not touch each other, and the work space was to be cleaned in order to successfully complete the task. Once the judge is satisfied with their arrangement, teams would receive their next clue.

The Roadblock performers per team are underlined:

Teams would search on foot in Aga Khan Garden to find the Pit Stop of this leg.
