About this route
Saanich to Toronto by car carrier
Saanich to Toronto runs about 4,462 km on the road (52 hours behind the wheel). Car carriers stop for other vehicles on the load, so count on 7–11 days on the truck. The car heads east and crosses from Pacific to Eastern time, so confirm whether the delivery window you are given is in local time.
Moving from British Columbia to Ontario
About 14,162 people moved from British Columbia to Ontario in each of the last two years, according to Statistics Canada (14,677 in 2024/2025, 13,646 in 2025/2026). That is 30.1% of everyone who left British Columbia for another province or territory, making Ontario its #2 destination. See the British Columbia to Ontario guide →
On the road
- Vancouver Island is reached by BC Ferries, usually Tsawwassen–Swartz Bay for Victoria or Horseshoe Bay–Departure Bay for Nanaimo. The fare and the wait for a sailing are part of the price, and the crossing can add about a day.
- The route crosses the Rocky Mountains. From October to March, snow on the mountain passes can hold trucks for a day, and British Columbia requires winter tires or chains on most of its highways.
- The only Canadian road between east and west runs north of Lake Superior (Highways 11 and 17 in Northern Ontario). Winter storms can close it for hours, which is one reason long hauls cost more in January and February.
