Getting Around
Apart from stopping for the odd slow-moving turtle or tractor, 650 kilometers of local highways and all the side streets in between make getting around easy and even enjoyable. Congestion is very rare, commute times are low and shopping is always within minutes. Two wheels, four wheels, and even canoes and kayaks are preferred methods of transport here.
And if you do have to leave town, you're within an easy drive of Ontario's largest cities, the U.S. starting in Sarnia and some of the world's largest economic markets.
