Ontario Highway 666 once connected Kenora to Reddit. It used to be Highway 128. It was renumbered to 658 in 1985 because the church was all pissy about it.
The province downloaded tonnes of highways to local municipalities in the north even though they don't cover everything. As long as there are no unincorporated gaps in between, it can be done. It simply becomes a road that connects to roads in other municipalities. Most of the downloaded highways in Northern Ontario don't have numbers anymore.
