I work in the country between Woodstock and Brantford. When I lived at home with my parents it was a 14 minute drive- 15 if there was a tractor in the way. Could get it under 10 with some serious speeding
But now I suppose I "reverse commute" from downtown Hamilton, which takes about 50 minutes. On the road between 6:45 and 7. I don't actually mind it, listen to the radio and cruise. All the traffic is going the opposite way- I only have to dip below 100km/h on the 403 in the stretch from the Linc to Wilson St. Whereas people are crawling down the mountain.
At night is a lot more variable, sometimes it hit a wall of traffic as far back as the Hwy 52 exit (15 km away) sometimes I make it all the way through without much of a slowdown- the choke point is always the Linc though.
I had a guy I carpooled with who lived in Stoney Creek on the opposite side of the city. He had a 20 minute commute to get to our spot and then the 45 minute drive from there. He couldn't stand it and got a new job 5 minutes from his house.
My girlfriend drives to Aldershot and takes the GO to Union, then walks to her downtown office. She leaves at 7 and starts at 9, but she has about 35-40 minutes of downtime. So a "long" commute, but she can sleep/read/whatever for most of it.
