Secondary Highway 596, commonly referred to as Highway 596, is a provincially maintained secondary highway in the Canadian province of Ontario. It connects the city of Kenora and the Trans-Canada Highway to Minaki, with a length of 48 kilometres. The highway was assigned in 1956. The southern part of the highway used a former road from Kenora to Trout Lake. The part from Pistol Lake to Minaki was originally part of a supply route for the construction of the White Dog Falls Station hydroelectric dam near the White Dog Reserve. New road was built linking these two older segments. The highway was substantially rebuilt and upgraded around 1980 as part of the Ontario Government's renovation of Minaki Lodge (since closed).

Secondary Highway 664, commonly referred to as Highway 664, is a secondary highway in the Canadian province of Ontario. Located in Kenora District, the highway links the community of Hudson to Highway 72 near Sioux Lookout. In late July 2012, it was announced that the road would be renamed The Leo Bernier Memorial Highway, after the former MPP for Kenora and Minister of Northern Affairs.^[15]

History

The highway began as a part of Highway 72 in 1934. In 1954, the road was renumbered as Highway 116, but may have been briefly designated as "Highway 72A" before that. By 1975, the Ministry of Transportation of Ontario had decided to demote three very lightly travelled Kings Highways in Northwestern Ontario to secondary highway status. Those roadways were Highway 116 (which became Highway 664), Highway 119 (which became Highway 665), and Highway 128 (which became the infamous Highway 666, and was consequently renumbered as Highway 658 in 1985.)

The road today is a typical secondary highway: lightly travelled, connecting a town to a main Kings Highway (Highway 72), and has slightly narrower and coarser pavement than Kings Highways.
