I certainly wish the city prioritized sidewalks and particularly sidewalk ramps at intersections instead of counter-productively running plows days after a storm to create worse windrows. IMO plows shouldn't even touch any road that isn't a bus route (unless maybe it's a steep hill)
But expecting the same standard for the thousands of kms of city owned sidewalk as homeowners must do for their own 15 meters is silly.

I expect them to be cleared within a reasonable time frame. I called after 4 weeks of it being icey and snow packed. Was very dangerous for anyone walking and a lot more dangerous than some potholes.
Then I expect them to send someone to clear it out not just put rocks on it. Finally got cleared few weeks ago from the sunshine we had then next snowfall they cleared it immediately so maybe the complaining helped.
Also btw the city subs most sidewalks out so these companies need to be held responsible imo. We literally pay taxes for this. Not reasonable having to walk on ice. My mom visits me and has to walk on these sidewalks for a distance and shes old and shouldn't have to worry about a broken hip from sidewalks not cleared.
