    Woodbridge is slightly to the west and north of Toronto.  Head west on
    Hwy 7 (just at the north edge of Toronto) and you'll hit Woodbridge. 
    It's about a 15 minute drive from the NW corner of Toronto.

    ... it has a rather quaint "downtown" area, and few rather charming
    not-so-yuppie restaurants.

    An alternative route is to head East from Sarnia.  You can't miss it!

434.5Ontario highways begin in SarniaTROA01::DEBOERFri Apr 19 1991 11:177
    Yes
    Since Sarnia is a little smaller than Toronto it will be easier to find
    and get on Hwy #7 and then all you need to do is follow it east for a
    few hours till you hit Woodbridge.

434.6Still looking....WEWAND::POWERSTue Apr 30 1991 13:196
    Does anyone out there in the Great White North happen to pass the
    town of Woodbridge regularly?  I'm looking for a long lost pal, and I
    think he's in Woodbridge.  Only problem is he's a trucker and gone
    days on end.  The only info is that he's at 93 Woodbridge Ave., in
    Wodbridge.  What I'm lookin for is an 18 wheeler rig parked in front
    of his house.  Anyone see anything like that??

    Does anyone up there know waht I shouild put on a letterhead to make
    sure it gets to the person.  In the Lower 48, we use "Occupant",
    or "current resident".  What do you folks up there use??

As opposed to Alaska, right?

P.S.:  On a letterhead, one puts one's own address.

Since Canada is more liable to British intervention in vocabulary, perhaps you
should use occutrouser.
