I just got back from Ottawa, first by flying to Montreal, forced to stay overnight b/c of the storm, then into Toronto this morning and finally back to Winnipeg today.
Aside from the three idiot cabbies (1 in Ottawa, 2 in Montreal), an Air Canada hotel voucher for a hotel that apparently doesn't exist and finding that out after driving around with idiot cabbie #2 for an hour until 10:30 at night, followed by a 5:30am flight that was missed because the Montreal airport doesn't have departure screens in the gate area but Air Canada has two departures to Toronto 10 minutes apart but at gates on completely opposite sides of the terminal, and having aisle seats for all but the last leg which finally had in-seat video entertainment but only my unit wasn't working...

You know, after the second cab ride, the Steve Martin and John Candy movie Plains, Trains and Automobiles was firmly entrenched in my head.
