Looks like Brockville is delayed once again however Kemptville seems to be a go.

We could always dream that they will be working on Brockville at the same time.
FYI Ivy chargers are $18/hr plus HST which works out to 34 cents per minute. I thought that would be a good deal compared to Tesla's recently-inflated SC pricing, but if it's limited to 50 kW then that will not be the case. I checked out the two Onroute locations eastbound from Kingston and found that Mallorytown was just breaking ground but Morrisburg looked almost ready to go.
I'll be passing by there next week, might take a detour and see how things look for Brockville.
Agree, but at least having it in a phone app makes it easier. Means maintaining a credit balance on yet another charging account though! Petro-Canada charging stations work with credit card - I used one for a CCS charge on an IONIQ a few weeks ago. CC made it a bit simpler, but then it wanted my phone number. I've received a couple of texts thanking me for using the charger, but nothing has appeared on my CC account yet! Looking forward to availability of the CCS-Tesla adapter to gain some charging location flexibility; it looks a lot more compact than the CHAdeMO one. If CCS adapter allows higher charge rates than 50 kW, the economics of Ivy vs SC might tip toward Ivy. Either way, it's nice to have an alternative between Cornwall and Kingston. For me Cornwall is too close, but Kingston can be a stretch in very cold temps with a strong headwind.
Brockville is open, 8 urban stalls.

Did you actually see this? Not shown anywhere on google or the supercharger network that I could find.
EDIT: GOT ME.

Screw the Brockville SC, 8 years of delays and still counting. The CCS adapter now makes charging available in several locations in Brockville and vicinity. The Petrocan has a couple of 350kw units just off the 401 and all the OnRoute stations along the 401 offer builtin Tesla adapters however at Chademo speeds (actually just a bolted on Chademo adapter on a Chademo unit) but also offer high speed CCS which is a much better option with the CCS adapter.
Just down the road from the Petrocan there is the Canadian Tire which also has 4, 350kw stalls. Several other places also.

That's annoying. This site was announced in Sep of 2017 so it will be well over five years from announcement to opening. This location would have been very useful, but it is becoming less crucial due to additional sites in Eastern Ontario in Cobourg, Trenton, Napanee, Gananoque and Keptville.
I could have used this site in the past for my trips from Scarborough to Manotick, but with Kemptville coming online soon I won't really need it.

Yes. A lot more Superchargers, other than in Brockville, are supposedly coming on line along the 401 soon - and sooner than in Brockville. While I have been frustrated by the Brockville delay, I am heartened by the other Supercharger availability that is planned to deal with the rapidly expanding demand for Tesla fast charging along that very busy route. I hope that all of theses plans are quickly realized.
the way the internet and voting works there will probably be some island without roads that will get voted to the top, tesla mcteslaface supercharger in the middle of no where with no way for a tesla to ever reach it will be voted number 1.
