Niagra Falls to Sault Ste Marie Ontario
Considering doing this next summer. Is there diesel and RV parks along the way? We also want to spend a few days in the Toronto area. Any suggestions on RV parks in this area. We hear Canada is beaut...

Just a few thoughts for you
1) probably the best location for camping in or near Toronto is the Glen Rouge campground. Not sure they can accommodate your size or if it has the features you would want, but its location is perfect, it is on the eastern border of Toronto, you can actually catch city busses right up the street from it, you are also only about a mile from the Rouge Hills Go train station, which is a rail service that will take you most any place in the city including Union Station downtown.
2) the route you would likely take QEW to another 400 series highway like 407(toll), 403 or 427 to 400 to TransCanada is a major route, there is fuel and food everywhere and is very urban, until you hit Barrie (north of Toronto) than it starts to get more isolated, but it is still a major route if you stay on the TransCanada so fuel and food will not be that hard.
3) once you get north of Barrie you can do some "real" camping in the real north. I would recommend two excellent Provincial Parks right along the route Killbear and Killarney, they are two of the nicest parks in eastern Canada and not out of your way.
4) I have been thru many cities on the East coast and Toronto has one of the worst rush hours I have seen, plan your driving thru Toronto outside of weekday rush hour.
