The second Season of the Canadian edition of the race, which aired in the summer following [[TheAmazingRace24 the second All-Stars]], and airing almost concurrently with Characters/TheAmazingRaceAustraliaVNewZealand.

One of the reasons for this was the cast, with several decent and interesting teams to cheer for deep into the season, as well as several teams that could be considered outright villains. Course design was also considered to be an improvement with the teams competing outside of Canada for the very first time and hitting the contestants with the same course difficulty from the first season. Like any season of the Amazing Race, there were some drawbacks, with RubberbandAI helping two teams who stumbled far behind the others and would have been eliminated otherwise, and one team consistently smoking the other teams to win more than half the legs. In the end, the finale had three teams anyone could cheer for and with the unexpected end result, the overall season was considered to be a success.

Overall, this season was a major improvement compared to the [[Characters/TheAmazingRaceCanada1 previous season]]. One of the reasons for this was the cast, with several decent and interesting teams to cheer for deep into the season, as well as several teams that could be considered outright villains. Course design was also considered to be an improvement with the teams competing outside of Canada for the very first time and hitting the contestants with the same course difficulty from the first season. Like any season of the Amazing Race, there were some drawbacks, with Detour Choices more consistent with earlier Amazing Race incarnations (easier but longer vs shorter but harder), a poorly placed Elimination point (after a Fast Forward), RubberbandAI helping two teams who stumbled far behind the others and would have been eliminated otherwise, otherwise[[note]]with one team being saved ''twice''[[/note]], and one team consistently smoking the other teams to win more than half the legs. In the end, the finale had three teams anyone could cheer for and with the unexpected end result, the overall season was considered to be a success.

Co-workers, Rob is a former Mr. Gay Canada. Despite a pair of straight second place finishes, they actually spent more time at the back of the pack, with six straight bottom-two finishes leading up to the finale, including coming last in two non-elimination legs. Such luck could not be carried into the finale, as they were ultimately done in by a terrible cab driver who did not know where the Fleet Street Pumping station was, putting them behind so much that they had no chance to catch up, finishing in 3rd.

Overall, this season was a major improvement compared to the [[Characters/TheAmazingRaceCanada1 previous season]]. One of the reasons for this was the cast, with several decent and interesting teams to cheer for deep into the season, as well as several teams that could be considered outright villains. Course design was also considered to be an improvement with the teams competing outside of Canada for the very first time and hitting the contestants with the same course difficulty from the first season. Like any season of the Amazing Race, there were some drawbacks, with RubberbandAI helping two teams who stumbled far behind the others and would have been eliminated otherwise, and one team consistently smoking the other teams to win more than half the legs.
