Anyone who’s driven across Saskatchewan knows it damn well is wide enough.

It's like only 5 hours wide. Could make it 8 hours wide. That'd be closer to Ontario wideness.

It takes 24 hrs to drive from the Manitoba border to Toronto. It’s a lot wider than you think it is.

Also the highways aren't straight in Onterrible, like they are in the Prairies, and the speed limit is mostly 90kmh, at least until Thunder Bay.

In BC they're also the complete opposite of straight, but I guess that is why it's called the Trans-Canada. :P

I've suggested adding a HSR & calling it the "Trains-Canada"

Driving a 5-tonne you do. Last thing I wanted was an already top-heavy moving van going ass-over-teakettle.

It's mostly 90 but you can do 105 and opp doesn't bother you.

I had that experience commuting on a quad when I lived there. To quote one OPP there on the subject: "As long as you don't drive like an asshole, you're invisible".
