What Ontario highway is that?

Thing I really miss about Ontario was all the rural roads and tons of pretty little towns and brick houses. The countryside in Ontario is so neat and clean and BC most of the homes and small rural areas are quite dumpy. Very haphazard and half the small rural homes are mobiles.

BC has some wonderfully beautiful roads but the problem is that there are very few. The roads with few exceptions follow thin valleys. In Southern Ontario you could drive forever in a small area and not travel on the same road twice but due to BC topography you usually have no choice but to take one road or two so there are very few "off the beaten track" roadways.

This is why, despite BC's relatively small population with most of it concentrated in Greater Vancouver, many of the road/highways are surprisingly busy because there are no alternative routes.
