I have to comment on this....Oh for crying out loud! I have to comment on this. <br /><br />I grew up in Montreal in the 50-70's. Winter was HARSH. Snow was mountainous and post snow storm temps dropped to -25 F! We got a foot of snow a week. Winter was a looooooong 6 months. Get over it, will ya? It's a "cycle". You've been spoiled the last 40 years!<br /><br />I lived downtown in 1976. My street Aylmer St, was buried in 6 feet of snow and didn't get ploughed out for weeks. We walked on top of the cars buried in the snow. I have the pics to prove it!<br /><br />Wah, wah, wah,....you're in the Great White North and the Snow Belt, so deal with it.
