That’s a pretty extensive list. I’d say I know half the names you listed but I wouldn’t be able to locate some of them on a map.
Personally, I have good idea of the communities located between let’s say Lac-Megantic to Toronto, or put differently, along A-10, A-30 from Brossard to Vaudreuil-Dorion, A-20 from Montreal to the QC/ON border, the 417, 416, and then 401 from the QC border to downtown Toronto.
I know and have been to most of the towns within that corridor, but my comfort zone quickly takes a nose dive if I were to guess the towns located just 10 km away from a given freeway. With the exception of the Eastern Townships and the parts of Eastern Ontario located within an hour of Ottawa, which I know pretty much all over. My capacity to navigate anywhere west of Toronto is pretty bad and I am pretty much constantly on GPS mode at that point.
