That's sure a plumber to remember. =>}

Yikes! Glad you made it back safely.

Personally, I consider the TRANS-CANADA highway passing through the whole damned city of Montreal to be the road right through Hell. We have to go through it EVERY time we want to go to the cottage or our daughter's, because there is no alternative route at all. Ugly! =<{

The M62's quite a beautiful road really, but the traffic is routinely nightmare - heavy trucks, bumper to bumper doing 60mph+ in usually horrible weather. O:

That really is a beautiful area. It's too bad we always destroy lovely places with our highways and housing developments. The same thing happnes all the time here.

Unfortunately, Montreal is an island, so the only way on or off is by bridges or the tunnel. You can imagine what lovely funnels they make for heavy traffic. Just horrible.

Here's an example of traffic on one of the service roads under and parallel to an elevated "express"way.
