I asked last night, because I was curious. (I've only gone from Toronto to Sudbury by car in the summer, on the way to cottage, about a week before the Civic Holiday.) He said the route from Ottawa to Sudbury is mostly two lane roads, whereas 69 is four lanes for much of the journey, so if there is a traffic problem it takes far less time to extract yourself from it.
