The Canadian Automobile Association (CAA) released their Top Ten Worst Roads in Ontario list. Many of the roads are from the Toronto area. However, observant residents in Kingston noticed that no streets from Kingston have made the list.

Queen St., pictured above, previously made the list in 2022 and 2021, but failed to make the list this year. While likely unrelated, some residents have noted that this snub comes after the coronation of the new king of England. 

"It's probably unrelated, but the timing does seem pretty sus," said local resident Blake Pothole, who was waiting for the bus to go to the garage where his car was being repaired after driving over a hole in the road. 

While Kingston did not make the list for all of Ontario, Queen St. in Kingston did take the number 3 spot in the Regional Top 5 rankings for Eastern Ontario, placing behind Country Road 49 (1st) and Barker Street (2nd), both in Prince Edward County.

As of this writing, it is unknown how close King St. in Kingston was to making the list or if it will be considered for future evaluations.
