I sourced The King's Highway just to make everyone happy. Claiming that construction information cannot be used on this page because it is copywritten is ridiculous. I could understand a direct copy-and-paste of Cameron’s excellent detailed construction history, but the dates that extensions were open could have been easily obtained from the MTO, the public library, or maps that people have laying around in their basement. Nonetheless, I have added a reference to the website to cover all angles.
As for the image, I have known Doug for many years, and a number of his images have even been taken with me driving him around the region. I have permission to use this image (as well as other images in the future), it sourced to him, has the correct copyright tag, and all that fun stuff. If someone has a problem with this, I recommend you contact Doug. I am weary about posting his email here due to spam, but I would be happy to personally provide it to anyone who doesn't already have it.
There, are we all happy now?

I've completed my review, and have a few minor concerns that need to be addressed before this article is promoted to GA status:

"The freeway crosses over Lake Gibson, infamous for its connection with the crimes of Paul Bernardo..."
Is this relevant, or even appropriate for an article about the highway? It's not even mentioned on the Lake Gibson article, so it seems like an especially peculiar line to include here. 209.90.140.72 ( talk) 01:48, 29 August 2014 (UTC)
I've removed a quote stating that 406 was the only highway with at-grade crossings prior to January 2, 2015. I thought it odd to have such a specific date; I thought maybe that was the date that the last of the new interchanges opened, but that's not in the source, it just happens to be the date that someone went down there with a camera. And besides that, one might say that the roundabout in Welland is an at-grade crossing, and Highway 420 meets Stanley Street at-grade; although the designation ends there now it didn't always. I see elsewhere in the article the quote may refer to rail crossings, but it was not accurate as it was. Ivanvector 🍁 ( talk) 17:03, 22 April 2016 (UTC)
