Latest tweet from the Canadian Armed Forces has the procession eventually driving on the QEW east to the Red Hill Expressway exit, turning west on King St.
So it appears they will be entering Hamilton from the east end rather than Main St as has been reported.
Those interested will need to follow early evening updates.
Some sources (OPP, various media outlets) claim the route is thru the west end and the Main St exit while the Canadian Forces tweet had the full route listed and said it was the Red Hill Expressway exit, to King St and west on King St.
The funeral home for visitation (Sun 6-9pm and Monday 9am-9pm) has been reported to be Markey-Dermody on King St just east of Kenilworth. Funeral service Tuesday at 12 noon at Christ Church Cathedral on James St N.
Since the OPP may be the ones in final control of the procession, it may well be the west end and Main St. Have to check media later today to find out actual route.
I believe the route is 401 to 404 to 407 to 403 exiting main st at dundurn and ending on main at gage. I’ve seen this reported by multiple outets including Hamilton Police
it'll be difficult for rush hour traffic to get over to make way as they make through Toronto. its a parking lot at this time
edit just saw they were taking 407.

I took this impromptu video as the motorcade with Cpl Nathan Cirillo's body passed by near my home last night on the way to the funeral home in Hamilton. Sorry for the enlongated format.
Just a thought or an Idea !? Ticats could wear Argyles of Canada sticker on Helmet or patch on our jerseys for support ,honour and a tribute I bet the CFL would ok it :thup:
What a moving 3 arena ceremony tonight to honour Nathan and Patrice. I've never seen a multiple arena simultaneous minutes silence and then chills as the crowd in all three arenas - Ottawa, Montreal and Toronto - together sang O Canada. Another ceremony to be proud of.
