What time should I leave Montreal?

I fly out of BTV on a regular basis (once a month) and the traffic is lighter going into Vermont (versus coming back to Quebec) at the end of most weekends, in my experience. The drive takes about 3 hours from BTV right to my house (North-Central Montreal). You should allow a little extra as the border crossing can be long on Labor Day.
