PREMIERE: AMAZING RACE CANADA Atop Fairmont Hotel Vancouver. Season 5 Premieres Tonight on CTV.

The Amazing Race Canada made a pit stop in Vancouver this Spring for season 5, with a tightrope walking challenge atop the Fairmont Hotel Vancouver. Here’s host Jon Montgomery showing how it’s done.  Note: Saw the Olympian win his gold medal at the Whistler Sliding Centre in 2010 and was in the village after when fans handed him a pitcher of beer.

What is it with Vancouver and these height challenges? Last year the Amazing Race Canada’s stop in Vancouver included a cycling challenging atop BC Place.
