The drive from Toronto to Sudbury is apparently a better choice in the winter than Ottawa.
While admittedly taking the bus is a slightly different issue from driving, I'm going to disagree with that -- in the six years I lived in Ottawa, I never once had a problem taking the bus home for Christmas, while in the ten years I've lived in Toronto I've ended up caught in weather and/or traffic delays every single year. Highway 69 can be a nightmare if you're on it at the wrong time.
I can't remember if I've asked you what brings you to my benighted hometown before. Surely it's not just the tourist appeal, because there isn't enough of that to warrant a repeat visit.
