Groat Rd is one of the few connections across the North Saskatchewan River in Edmonton, Alberta. The northern climb out of the river valley was built in a ravine, hence the twisting and winding. Also at the beginning see a short stretch of University Ave and Saskatchewan Dr.
Travel northbound on 111 St, a major arterial road in South Edmonton. This road is a little special as it has Edmonton's South LRT line running right down the middle of the road for a majority of the route. Enjoy!
Yellowhead Trail (Alberta Highway 16) is the only major east-west highway in the Capital Region. It connects Edmonton to Jasper and the Canadian Rockies in the west, and Saskatoon in the east. This time lapse video was taken at dusk, going eastbound along the Yellowhead through Edmonton.
Travel westbound on Whitemud Drive from the eastern leg of Anthony Henday Drive, to the western leg, and beyond. Whitemud Drive is the only east-west road in inner Edmonton that is a full freeway from start to finish.

On November 1st, 2011, the northwest section of AHD opened. This time lapse shows the whole freeway from Manning Drive to the end just north of Yellowhead Highway. Construction is currently underway to connect the last section of AHD to make it a full ring road around Edmonton, Alberta.

I don't think this "railfan" will be living for much longer with his common sense...

A flight from Edmonton's International Airport, ends in Toronto at Pearson International Airport. Watch as we fly over Mississauga, with the city skyline in the background (Toronto's skyline is too far away to see clearly)
Take the front row seat in Canada's Wonderland's only stand up roller coaster, and the second oldest stand up roller coaster still in operation worldwide.
Ride a giant pendulum that soars 120 feet up into the air at a maximum angle of 120 degrees! Psyclone was built in 2002 at Canada's Wonderland in Vaughan, Ontario.
A POV shot of the newest ride at Canada's Wonderland (and also at 3 other Cedar Fair parks), WindSeeker. It reaches speeds of 30mph and rises 301 feet into the air. It is the tallest ride at Canada's Wonderland, beating the tallest roller coaster in Canada and the park: Behemoth.
5 VIA trains pass by Baie-d'Urfe in the evening hours.

Take one of the most scenic roads into downtown London, Ontario on a nice spring evening. Once in downtown, we also see the heart of London along Dundas Street.
This daily local from London - St. Thomas - London, is usually between 20 and 50 cars long, so this caught me by surprise. A short train is better than no train! :)
