Another option for the trip.

Fly to Detroit, rent a car, and drive to Montreal. 586 miles according to Google Maps.

So, how crazy am I? I'm figuring a red eye to Detroit, and breaking for a lunch will get us into Montreal in the evening. Remember, I drive long stretches for a living, so it's not a big thing for me to go six or seven hours on the road.

Canadians.. anything I should know about driving on your beaver-infested roads?

Yes, remember that all measurements there are in metric units. That sign saying 100 does NOT mean MPH. It really means around 62 MPH or 100 KPH.

Similarly, if the sign says Montreal 120, then the distance is conversely shorter than your brain will think. Hand Kiri a decent calculator with built in conversion tables & have a blast.
