Drive.
It's only about 3 hrs.
Gas is @ 0.75c.
Mostly along major highways - 401E and Veterns Pkwy so road condition shouldn't be issue.

I agree with pratickm. Also, you can rent a car from Enterprise for as less as $16/day if you are drving within Ontario. Combine it with the currently low gas price and you are good...

you can opt for carpool as well in case you don't want to drive. And you would get many rides as it's Friday.

I would say it's ~4hrs drive and ofcourse rental mentioned above doesn't include the Car insurance in case you opt for enterprise's insurance.

OMG 3 hrs from ottawa to TO or vice versa...man you must be flying. the best time i get so far is 4 hrs and 7 mins with speed going over 150 KMPH. trust me if you drive normaly during the day it will be easily around 4 n half hr drive with 1 gas/coffee stop. if you are driving during night then you can do it in 4 hrs.

and yes renting is a way to go NOW, with cheaper gas. :clap:

Man, I musta been going in reverse gear then.

I left at 7 am this past weekend and arrived just before noon with a coffee/leak taking stop incl. -like 5 hours!

and no I wasn't stoking any fires and adding to the govt crisis.

just checking out Carleton university.

Anybody have any feedback on this university? Is it good bad or ugly? maybe even vulgar.

It's supposed to have a top notch international business undergrad program.
