The Ontario Ministry of Transportation also has medium-term plans to extend Highway 417 (which replaces the 17 as it is built) westward from its current terminus at Arnprior (about 60 km* from Ottawa) another 100 km* or so to Petawawa, which is past Pembroke.
This would twin another small portion of the TCH in Ontario, but it's still a long way from Petawawa to North Bay, Sudbury and Sault Ste. Marie!
*All distances are approximate!

Reason: better km figures
