Years ago I worked for awhile on Bloor St just east of Simcoe. That whole area was really sketchy even then. Lots of druggies and other down & outers. Methadone clinic, which was always really busy, and a few halfway houses in that area. From Bloor north to King Street; Simcoe Street is not the...
The map you showed is very accurate, based on my experiences. There's almost always a bottleneck on the QEW when you get to where the Red Hill Pkwy empties into the QEW Niagara bound. If you're coming off the Red Hill to the QEW; the farthest right lane is the place to be. You'll save a lot of...

A few tips from someone who lives in the Niagara Region area and travels the Link & QEW regularly.
1, Check the week before to make sure the Link (Lincoln Alexander) isn't closed that Sat. for repairs/inspection - etc. They do that from time to time in the warmer months just because they can...
Don't know what the history of your GF's original hubby was but sounding like maybe the daughter has not come to terms with her Mom being with any other guy. It's not you, it's what you represent to her perhaps? I agree that it needs to be worked out if you're planning a long term relationship...
