Serious snow removal

When it comes to winter, probably the only countries that have anything on Canada are Greenland and Russia.  And that's only a maybe.  I'm sure you think your winters are tough, but allow me to show you what snow removal looks like in Montréal (remember that Canada goes much, much further north than Montréal):


That's a tractor equipped with a snowblower the size of a sofa.  A big sofa.

First, they plow the snow.  Then they remove the snow.  Because it won't melt (much) and there's so much of it things would get seriously disrupted after the second or third storm.

They fill hundreds of these trucks.  Hundreds.  Each snowfall.

And did I mention that I have to walk to school uphill both ways? ;)
