Yeah, I entered too...I thought 'Mayor of Plowtown' was a good suggestion, but alas, no dice.

I had to lie about my age and everything. My daughter was teaching Elementary school at the time and I tried to bribe a student to submit it on my behalf.

That would explain some of the lame names on Calgary plows. I mean, WTF is the Calgary SnowFlames? At least the Scottish are on top of their plow naming game.

And speaking of plows, we live on a bus route and I've yet to see evidence of a plow doing more than one pass down our street; the ruts and loose snow is getting pretty bad.

On the bright side with this weather, the CTV Weather meteorologist Danielle Savoni is always looking amazing when delivering this dreadful weather report.

A little early for some of this crap but oh well

I chuckle each time. I also agree with UCB and admire their dedication.

Wait...what are we talking about now?

Plows shouldn't touch any residential street that isn't a bus route (and perhaps a few steep hills). It makes mobility way worse. Spend that time un####ing the pedestrian ramps that the plows #### everywhere else.

Yeah it's deceivingly slick tonight with the ice fog. Roads look bare and dry but I saw 3 cars fishtail in the curve on McKnight by the airport.
