Truck Stops AttentionCanadian truck stops are not what you are use to in the USA so be warned (this might be wrong for provinces other than Ontario because i have only driven in Ontario, Quebec, and Manitoba). The only decent truck stops in Canada are on the 401 and 400 highways. Also some Canadian rest areas are primitive because they consist of outhouses or port-o-potties and picnic tables and are for cars. Truck Drivers Resource Canada - Commercial Truck Stops Truck.net has a better list of Canadian Truck stops. Truck Stop Info Plus! has a list of truck stops in all states except for Alaska and Hawaii.
