Driving From Burlington To Brantford - Highway Reality Check

Join David from BackRoads for a relaxing Sunday morning drive from Burlington to Brantford along the 403. As the spring season brings the trees into full bloom, we take a "Highway Reality Check" on everything from rising gas prices to the changing Ontario landscape. Experience the shifting weather as we move through a misty stretch in Hamilton, climb the Niagara Escarpment (locally known as "Caledon Mountain"), and finally arrive in Brantford—the proud birthplace of Wayne Gretzky.
