Most people, yourself included I'm guessing, think more about taking off and not so much about stopping. It doesn't matter if your vehicle is FWD RWD or AWD, they all stop the same with all seasons. And In Canada, that's not very well.
If you drive for the conditions AS works well for Alberta winters. We don't get a lot of snow and a large majority of the winter is being driven on dry pavement.

Now if I lived in a snowbelt, i'd probably fork out the money for snow tires and rims. Right now my m/s tires on my Ford Escape work fine.
