There is also a (beta) trip planner for the TTC (Toronto transit):

I am using Navteq trafic receiver with my nuvi 765t in Toronto area for last couple of months.
I have noticed that reciver is losing signal lots of time while driving around the city. The traffic icon turns grey. Is it just me or others having same problem.

Hello everyone,

Well the proof is in the pudding as I recently installed NavNgo Amigo software on my GPS which has a built-in TMC traffic receiver. Tuned it to 96.9 in Montreal and there you have it, a full complement of traffic information including incidents, flow and construction coverage.

This must be free traffic, but I am not sure who is the provider? 96.9FM is CKOI here in Montreal. I tried tuning to other stations but my GPS would not pick up any other signal.

Anyway, will keep you posted.

How can I check traffic FM station on Nuvi 765? And is there a way to change FM station if there are more than one stations available. I will appreciate your help. Navteq traffic signal keeps going up and down in Toronto area. There are days when I start from Wilson TTC station and drive all the way on 401 West and then Hwy 427 North without any traffic signal.

Hi again,

Found out with the same software that TMC is available in Ottawa also..I think the station was 106.1. Also tried it in Montreal with Becker Z302 software and it works like a charm on 96.9FM (made me avoid major traffic jams over the past few weeks!).

Take care

I came across this website that is crowd sourcing Canadian traffic using people to sign up as traffic probes using their cell phones.

http://ottawa.drivestraffic.com/about/

They are also offering a $25 gas card to the first 240 people who sign up.

Has anyone had anything new on this topic for Canada?

Would be nice to hear of updates if there are any.

Many thanks!

Well it worked fine for me for a while (Tomtom One XL) and then the information started to be more and more unreliable so i did not renew my traffic subscription. Last year i got a new traffic subscription and i got a refund because the service for my one XL is discontinued...
One of my coworker have a new garmin with life traffic and map and looks like the traffic info is not quite reliable too... So i guess they need to work harder on the traffic info
