Another possibility is to get off at Vendome metro station and take the bus 90 going west (ouest in French). Going along St Jacques street, at the fork of the road you will see a gas-station and a McD's - the bus will go left, and you should get off and go right - which is where cars going west will pass. This is still fairly in the city but if you hitchhike with a sign saying you want to go west on the highway 20, you should get a ride quite easily. It is advised to go there early and try to catch the people going from Mtl to To.

In Alexander's experience, this place gave no good results for hitchhiking during winter. Waited from 09:00AM to 02:00PM without any results. Ride sharing using Kijiji or Craigslist is recommended in such case.
If you want to go to Ottawa, there's a great spot right before highway 40. Just continue straight past the 20 and along 'Avenue des Anciens Combattants' for about 10 minutes. For pictures of the spot, see: http://imgur.com/v2vDG and http://imgur.com/wPYQK
