VFR From Lethbridge, AB to Ottawa, ON

Hey folks

I bought a '79 M5-235C about a month ago out in Lethbridge, AB. The problem is I live near Ottawa, ON, so about 1600nm straight line distance away.

I'm planning on heading out early next month to pick up the airplane and am looking for suggested routings. Right now I'm thinking Lethbridge-Brandon-Thunder Bay on day one, and Thunder Bay-Sudbury-Ottawa (actually, Arnprior, but close enough) on day two,

I have aux tanks on the Maule but figure four hours is probably my bladder limit :-)

Any suggestions or comments from those of you familiar with the local areas or have flown the route before?

Thanks

Look's like us lower 48 folks don't get up that way too often!
Best for your flight, be safe, sounds like a wonderful flight!
