You call ahead to the Pizza hut and order some personal Pizza's. Plug in, walk over and they are ready, by the time you get back to your car charging is done, brings back memories of grabbing those as a kid.

What about the IVY chargers at the OnRoutes? With an adapter they should offer decent rapid charging although I have not tried them yet. I believe they are 150kw units. Just another option.
Hopefully IVY will announce native J3400 support soon.
Since it's a government agency they are very slow to do anything useful!

Probably because Ontario govt likes Evy (owned by Hydro One, Ont gov big stake owner in Hydro One)
Isn't there an issue about the amount of power going into the ONRoute sites. Some of them are in fairly remote locations and may not be able to support a dozen or more SCs. That was mentioned by a former active user on this site who worked for one of the electrical utilities.
IVY Chargers are garbage and most are more expensive than superchargers. Last time I charged on one of their fast units I couldn't get more than 65 kw:
Most locations are $0.62/kWh as well so more expensive than most superchargers for a bad experience. They used to be a lot cheaper when they charged by the minute.

You are talking common sense there my friend and it’s no longer common. The Onroute is owned by Arjun Infrastructure Partners and Fengate Asset Management who purchased them in May 2019. They obviously canton read the tea leaves because they are losing out on lots of revenue.
When crossing the border at 1000 Island, heading east to Montréal, Kingston and Gananoque are not useful. Watertown NY to Cornwall can be tight in cold weather and/or older cars. Brockville will be very useful for that (and avoid Cornwall)
