Toronto to Edmonton?
Forget about Trans-Canada. You will find gas stations, restaurants and inexpensive motels along the American route far easier. Not to mention the fact that you don't have to worry about traffic lights, pissy little towns to drive through, and you can drive with a normal and sane speed limit on state of the art four-lane highways.
Toronto to Thunder Bay? Take the Trans Canada. Toronto to anywhere West of Thunder Bay, go via the U.S.
Also, remember, if you take more than 24 hours to your destination, you can take advantage of the Duty Free store.
And also remember common sense and don't rely on MapQuest.

2006 or 2011, what the heck is the difference? Are there four-lane traffic light free highways in Canada from Halifax to Vancouver, all of a sudden?
I haven't seen you out there with a pick, shovel and wheel barrow yet. Get crackin! You're the one griping (as usual)
Dude who started the Thread, years ago, couldn't enter the U.S. due to documentation issues.
Trans-Canada Highway would have got this guy to Calgary. If he couldn't figure it out from
there....he shouldn't have left his home in Toronto.
I bought a whole bunch of picks, shovels and wheel barrows with all the outrageous taxes I pay, even as a retired person.
Only an inexperienced stay-at-home idiot, who never travelled more than two yards from Mommie's basement would call recommendation for a better, cheaper and faster route, griping.
Nice self description, Jack. Glad to see you're opening up about yourself.
What makes you qualified to recommend anything more than your version of a good mix?
Still griping - as in all the other ones where you whine about having to slow down.
What a closed minded idiot you are Jack. Hope your Mom's basement is comfy. LOL.
lone wolf, I speak from experience. I travelled Canada coast to coast. From the St. Lawrence River to Chibogamou. From Toronto to Red Lake. From Osoyoos to Peace River. From Calgary to Fort McMurray. From Winnipeg to Vancouver via the Yellowhead or through the Kicking Horse Pass or the Crownest Pass.
I also travelled the United States East and West, North and South and I even spent a couple of months - against my best judgement - in Sudbury, one night.
EXPERIENCE! That is what makes me qualified.
Experience, my ass. It's probably quite safe to say I have backed up more miles than you've ever driven - even at your advanced age. If Canada was to embark on a project so you could drive from east coast to west coast on US-styled Interstates, I expect you'd be the first one to gripe about such a "socialist" project - so put up or shut up.
I bet Sudbury was glad to be rid of you.
I could let you spank me ,just as an example to those guys
anything for a smoother forum
Wa-aa-ay cool! ;-) I was worried about Karrie bruising her hand spanking this calloused old trucker butt....I could let you spank me ,just as an example to those guys

Sudbury: A nice place to visit...but I wouldn't want to live there....between winter and construction...the traffic is worst than T.O. and the one ways are confusing as hell to a GPS navigator:lol:
Sudbury is LA without the freeways - and the construction is ongoing. Toronto is organized confusion. Sudz isn't even organized - aside from being Greater than something.
One-ways? How many directions can you go?
