 Yesterday I was telling you about these little wet wipes for glasses, get them at the pharmacy at Walmart. Little thing here that you take your glasses and you can clean your glasses streak free. It's very nice. One second. One second. I better make sure I tell you the right location. You're in me. Hey. Come on, Ontario. And we want to be in Hardesty, Alberta tomorrow night. So we got two days to get there. It's going to be two long days, two long days of just giving her. So we better give her. Ah, so it was a great night, perfect temperature to sleep, not too hot, not too cold. Truck started up in the morning, that is always awesome. A great trip, everything's working, put her in gear, at least the brakes. We are heavy. We're pulling 63,000 pounds of steel in the tri-axle here across the country, picked it up in St. Catherine's, Ontario, close to the border with Buffalo, New York. And we're going to pull it all the way up to Hardesty, Alberta, which is between Saskatoon and Edmonton in Western Canada. Just got to wait for the rush hour traffic here. We got to... Oh, he put a signal on. Are you turning here then? I don't trust you. Okay, so you're turning here before you pick up. Sometimes people put their signal on way too early, and I'm glad, don't get me wrong, I'm glad they're using their signals. Well, you don't need to turn it on two miles before you turn, because then I think you're turning at another stop, right, and then I pull out in front of you, then you honk at me and give me the finger and wonder what I'm doing. Well, you put your signal on, I thought you were turning. A little bit cold from here. As soon as we get into Western Canada and to Manitoba, looks like it's going to get a little bit chillier. We're going to go through some snow today, right around Ignis, Ontario, is where it's going to start. I'm going to hit the thick of it around Dryden, sort of come out the other side between Canora and Falcon Lake. It doesn't seem like it now, right, because we've got clear skies. But according to the forecast, we're going to hit some snow. By the time we hit Manitoba, it won't be snowing anymore, but there will be a lot of snow on the ground more than there is here in Manitoba last night. Or yesterday, for some reason, birthday month. There's no more snowing allowed after my birthday. My birthday was April 1st, and that's not a joke. I was born on April Fool's Day. The joke is that it snowed in April, that's the joke. And upstairs thinks he's funny. By the way, 17, we're on the two roads becoming one road. Now take us to the west, get to the other road, and then it's pretty decent. We avoided all the biggest hills by taking the northern route on Highway 11, just because we're so heavy. I want to be a little nice to this old girl, this old truck. It's working really hard to pull this steel through here, and I don't need to add any unnecessary hills to her route. Cruisin', next big city we're going to go through. Tonight I want to get to at least heading Lee Manitoba. I'd love to get to Brandon Manitoba if I could on the other side, but the Portage La Prairie would be a nice, nice place to somewhere out there, past Winnipeg. Mazda Gallup, nope, not today, let's just see the day one day that they build a four-lane divided highway that connects eastern Canada and western Canada, right from like Toronto and Ottawa. For this whole day it's been sunshiny, I've been getting a tan through my window here, and then I heard reports that there was snow up ahead. Now I knew that because I looked at the weather forecast, but I was kind of hoping that maybe the weather was wrong, or actually we're rolling towards the clouds. Looks like I'm still going to hit some rain, sleet, snow, freezing rain, I don't know, hopefully not. I think I'm just going to hit some snow around the Dryden, Ontario area, and by the time I get to Canora it should pretty much be gone. I've got to get this essential steel to the essential oil fields. If the weather gets too bad I have to pull over because I'm oversized, I'm not supposed to be driving in inclement weather, I think is what the wording is, so if it gets really bad, but this is just a little bit of drizzle and we're doing pretty good. So as long as it doesn't get too much worse, it should be good to go. Judging by the forecast, this should be, like I looked at the road ahead, and this should be the worst of it here right now. So this is all Mother Nature's got to offer me today, hey, totally cool with that. We should be able to make it past Winnipeg then. Well this has been the whole day just driving, but the rain turned into a little light snow, but not too bad, and now we're just about at the Manitoba border, we're about to cross into western Canada and it looks like everything is cleared up just like the weather forecast said. Go figure, some news was actually correct. It's good to hear, good to hear. It's not all bad. It's looking like I'm probably about, I don't know, half hour from the Manitoba border, and it's time to get me out of Ontario before sunset, because after sunset I've got to find a place to park. I'm not supposed to drive on these two lane roads in Ontario at night, so we'll be in Manitoba before then, and then I can keep on going. I've got another three hours left on my clock, been driving for ten hours today already, so it looks like we'll be able to get around Winnipeg, close to Brandon, maybe Portagell Prairie, and we'll get past Winnipeg, I think. We'll see how we feel once we get there, about an hour and a half from the east side of Winnipeg. Snow is starting to come down a little bit more, but that's okay because there's the clear sky up ahead, look at that beautiful stuff. Oh I'm so sick of snow. I am so sick of snow. I am the worst Canadian ever. If it never snowed in Canada again, I wouldn't even be sad. You know what, if we just moved the snow line up to like the territory, so if you wanted to go snowmobiling, you could just like go up to Yukon or Alaska or Northwest Territory, something like North. Yeah go do your snowmobile and have your fun, your skiing, your snowboarding up there. If it never snowed here, if the climate warmed up, I wouldn't be upset. I'm still waiting. They keep telling me it's going to warm up. So far it hasn't. It's actually gotten colder, if anything. And it's snowing in April. I was told that I would have tropical beachfront property by this time. And here we are. We're coming up to the Manitoba border. I think this sign here is going to say something off on the left. This is two kilometers to the Manitoba boundary. And then it's our two crests. The crest of Ontario with the three maple leafs and the crest of Manitoba with the bison. Hey, it's been a good day. Nothing to really complain about. Just an average day, I'd say. Nothing to really tell you, but nothing to complain about either. We're just rolling along, doing our bit to keep things moving. Okay, here comes the Manitoba sign off on the right. You ready? We're about to cross into the west. Oh, there's a check stop coming up. Oh, okay. That's right. They're checking. They've got to check to make sure that I'm not sick. That's right. All self-isolate 14 days. Critical services exempt. I am critical services. All in critical steel for the critical oil fields. But yeah, if you cross provincial boundaries in Canada, you've got to self-isolate for 14 days. That means you go straight to your house. You don't go to the grocery store. You don't stop at the gas station unless you absolutely have to. You go straight home and close the door behind you. And you don't come back out for 14 days. You call your friends. You call your family. You call somebody else to go get your groceries and stuff for you. You've got to go straight home, except for us essential people. It's not really that special being essential. We're the ones that are more at risk. The people who are most at risk are the people working in the hospitals. Once again, give a shout out to our healthcare workers. The way I've been thinking about it is, you know, America has a massive military. There are brothers to the south, brothers and sisters down there. There's massive military. They're very proud of it. I'm proud of it, man. I'm not even American. I'm proud of their military. That's awesome, right? That's their thing. You know, you need a war. America's your guy. They're good at it. They're really good at war. For us, we put that same amount of effort into our healthcare system. Healthcare is our thing. So when a crisis like this comes along, it's sort of like, you know, a war came along to the U.S. They're prepared for that. This pandemic showed up in Canada. We got this. This is what we invest pretty much all of our time, energy and money into up here. This is sort of our thing. So a big shout out to our healthcare workers at the front lines, our soldiers. I hope you guys all have enough equipment. And I hope things are getting better. I hope there's a light at the end of the tunnel. Let's just say that by the time you watch this. I'm still out here moving stuff around, trying to keep the economy moving. You know, we got to keep things moving. We can't stop everything. So keep building stuff if you can. Social distance, but keep building stuff. I'll bring your stuff to you. Partage La Prairie. Pulling into the flying J here. Not a 24 hour, but it's the best we got. You'll see it in a second. It'll pop out of the night. I got how much time here? Hey, tell the good people. You have zero hours and 15 minutes of remaining drive time. And that means we got to pull in here. This is where we will make our home tonight. It's going to be a long day, but we can do it all in one day tomorrow if we don't have any problems. Driver, Joshua Geeks, please must go off duty in zero hours and 14 minutes to meet off duty rules. How dare you speak my name? It's creepy. Why do you do that? That's new. She only started doing that today. I never told her what my name was. I don't know who did. It's one of you, wasn't it? Creepy.
