TORONTO, July 23, 2013 /CNW/ - At the conclusion of tonight's episode of CTV's THE AMAZING RACE CANADA, it was revealed that best friends Jamie and Pierre, a pair of gay cowboys from Alberta, were the second team eliminated from the competition series. After missing the first two flights to Vancouver, the cowboys were in catch-up mode from the get go. In Vancouver, the best friends struggled with the "draw it" detour, before deciding to switch to the "dance it" challenge at the last minute. In the end, the setbacks were too much to overcome, resulting in their last place finish to the mat.

Next week on THE AMAZING RACE CANADA (airing Monday, July 29 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on CTV and live on CTV Mobile), the teams head to big sky country Alberta, where the doctors Holly and Brett try to steer the herd in a different direction.  At the roadblock, teams get lined up, and knocked down, while a dirty detour kicks the soot out of the racers. The remaining competitors vying for the historic half a million dollar grand prize are:

• HAL and JOANNE - Married "BodyBreak" Fitness Icons

• JET and DAVE - Best Friends
• JODY and CORY - Brothers
