Thankfully avoided the QEW - probably would have added another couple of hours onto the trip! We took the Blue Water Bridge crossing (remarkably quick into Canada for a Friday lunchtime) and then the 402 / 401 all the way. Hit the Friday Toronto traffic a few clicks west of the airport and crawled on for the next 3 hours. Once we got well clear of Toronto things sped up again - although eldest son had a fright behind the wheel about half way between Toronto and Montreal - cop with a radar gun trying to get a hold of him while doing 90+ - luckily for him there was a semi in the inside lane to hide behind whilst anchoring up hard...... Cop waved a finger as we passed him! Great trip for a boys weekend - lifetime memories!
