In that stretch, the most badly needed stretches are:
1) Arnprior to Petawawa (REALLY badly needed - killer highway, yet the province might be deliberately going slow for political reasons as the Ottawa Valley is a Tea Party stronghold)
2) Bonfield to North Bay, through North Bay and on to Sturgeon Falls
3) Warren to Sudbury, around Sudbury to the end of the current 4 lanes, then again from Whitefish to Webbwood
4) Bypasses of Massey, Spanish, Blind River, Iron Bridge, Bruce Mines and Desbarats (any other small towns missed)? All of those should be 2 lanes initially, except for Desbarats which should be 4 to tie into the current 4 lanes.
5) Sault Ste. Marie sweeping northeast bypass from Fifth Line to the current 90-degree turn
