Jon Montgomery

Olympic Champion & TV Host

Jon Montgomery won a gold medal in skeleton during the 2010 Winter Olympics. His now-famous victory walk through Whistler Village while enjoying a golden pitcher of beer handed to him by a fan (his "beer angel") gave Jon instant folk-hero status with Canadians from coast-to-coast.

Jon has appeared on Oprah, co-hosted the JUNO Awards, and been the memorable host of The Amazing Race Canada since 2013.
