Six teams slid into Windsor, Ontario.
Doo-wop!
At the Detour, some teams swung into action...
Crazy Legs is coming out!
While others were left puzzled.
-What about this? -Hey, what about this?
The pressure of the longest leg of the race
had some teams wound up.
What the sweet...?
And others spinning out.
I should be good at this stuff.
At the Faceoff, teams hedged their bets.
-Let's go! -Thank you.
And it was winner, winner, chicken dinner for Ty and Kat.
-You're team number one. -Oh, yes!
In the end, Derek and Jaspal were dealt a bad hand.
It was a rough, long leg for Derpal.
Now, five teams remain as they race to win...

Here, at Point Pelee National,
at the southern edge of the co,
5 teams will begin the 8th leg on
the adventure of a lifetime,
The Amazing Race Canada.
Ty and Kat won the last leg of the race,

Rip it and rip.
"Make your way to Saguenay, Quebec.'
Teams will now travel over 1300 kilometres to the
Saguenay-Lac-Saint- Jean region of Quebec.
And somewhere along this leg of the race,
they'll find the Double Pass.
Two teams will have the ability to force
a change in the race.
Yeah-ha-ha!
"Caution: Double Pass ahead!"
Let's go!
We'll have to shape up on our French.
Bonjour, comment ca va?
We can appreciate the relationships we've formed,
but we also know that everybody is wanting to win.
We know there's a Double Pass ahead.
The target on our back has gotten a little bit bigger.
We're going to Quebec.
I've never been, I'm terrible at French.
We are getting so close to being in that final three.
Slow is smooth, smooth is fast.
Quebec!
Going into leg 8,
you could feel the competition intensifying.
We know that the Double Pass is coming up
on this leg of the race.
I think we have to make a dramatic move today.
[Train bell ringing]
Which team is the biggest threat to you guys for
potentially winning this thing?
-Ty and Kat. -I mean, Ty and Kat.
-We would agree. -They're dominating.
-Here we go! -Off to Quebec.
We've got the Double Pass board ahead.
If you guys are on board to try and ruffle this thing up,
then let's go for it.
-Alright, I like this. -I like it, yeah, yeah.
-Love it. -[Laughing]
Teams know that we're not the best at French.
This is the most uncomfortable we've felt
throughout the race.
We'll just keep running our race, and pushing through,
and doing what we can to overcome it.
Route Info.
Ooh, we're going to Quebec!
Our home province. Je suis excité.
This means we are definitely working with them.
They have no choice or say in the matter.
[Laughing]
We're off to Quebec.
-[Train horn] -Woohoo!
All teams are now travelling on the same train,
900 kilometres to Montreal, where they'll board a plane
and fly over 400 kilometres north to
Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean.
[Train horn]
So, our goal is right now,
we're hoping to partner with Tyler and Kayleen because
they shouldn't want Ty and Kat in it either, right?
Oh, they're super strong, man.
Right?
We've worked with the front of the pack,
but we also have relationships with
the back of the pack.
Deven and Amanda will certainly work with us.
If we can leverage those relationships to potentially
get out one of the top teams, we're going to be
looking to strike while the iron's hot.
So, collectively, our goal is hopefully
try to get out Ty and Kat,
and it's just the four of us, then we could all
collectively work to get the other teams out.
-That's it. -The gloves are coming off.
Yeah, we're not backing down.
We're just gonna come and do what we have to do to win.
