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?

The 401 from Winsor to Toronto is *deadly* boring.

Canada kept to the "keep the long haul highways away from the cities and towns" rule.

All we saw were Soy bean farms alternating with tomato farms with a couple of corn fields for variety and that was it.

C and I had real problems when we made the drive a few years ago.

As to the speed limit... Driving a car with US plates, we kept to the posted limits, but were passed by many many cars at high speed. Our friends told us that Ontario police are cool as long you are going with the flow.
