Bachelorette Canada - Season 1 - Jasmine Lorimer - Episode Discussion - *Sleuthing - Spoilers*

I can understand why they air it in the Fall but I still don't quite get why they have to film it in the Spring. I would think they'd be able to do so in say June and travel to Southern Hemisphere if they don't want it to be too hot. It's just too bad that there is such a long time between filming. Hopefully it doesn't impact the couple but if they do live far from each other then I don't see how it won't impact them and likely negatively.

Yeah, I have no idea why they film when they do. Scheduling with their other commitments? Maybe it is cheaper to film at that time? Easier to secure locations? Who knows. Maybe someone can ask them?

It's probably like you said, cheaper, scheduling, etc. I am still excited to watch but do feel bummed about the longevity of the couple if they live far a part for 6+ months post filming to ATFR. Will see... but I imagine even a healthy relationship... that long time and if there's long distance and not seeing each other much it would hard to maintain an engagement - which I am sure they will have considering both Bach Canada had engagements.

I'm not sure about why they start filming at the time...maybe the weather is getting a little better in Vancouver where they film the first part of the season, but the reason they air it at that time is because the Canadian versions of shows like the Bachelor, Big Brother and Amazing Race all air when their American counterparts are not. American Bachelor airs from January to March. The Bette starts up in May and then BIP is on during the summer. The only time to air the Canadian version is in the fall.

April to May is actually the best time that weather changes. I would think that maybe when they say they are beginning the filming in March, it may be at the very end and IMO, it may be the beginning packages, etc and not the general filming. I live on the Island and have been here for the last 24 yrs so do have a pretty good grasp on the normal here. Also, maybe the weather and the El Nino may play a part as they are saying that spring will be early once again.

IMO, the way that Jillian puts it, likely most if not all will be filmed in Canada as was Bach Canada the first season including all FD`s were filmed in Canada too. Just going by Jilly`s IG and tweets, she has been to Tofino, Van Isle, Jasper, and the Emerald lake in the last few months. Wonder if it was a `fishing` expedition in preparation for the filming season.

Well if they filmed any around Canada at all, there are only a select few places that wouldn't be really busy to do filming around at that time of year, but in the spring, it's still pretty quiet and easy to keep some hidden. IMO

she is very pretty

I hope she makes a kind fun bachelorette and we will have nice guys to root for!

Here's a map of Montreal/Quebec City...  Think this was an individual date.

It takes about 2hrs and 45 min to drive, 3 hrs and 15 min train trip and about 45 min flying time.
