Snomicron infects all Torontonians today.
If only there was some warning that this was coming.
They’ve been warning since last week
Who needs to blame somebody for not providing a warning…? IT’S WINTER. IN CANADA. What do you expect? Tropical paradise and a warm breeze? Don’t drive like a moron. If you need to travel, drive like it’s the last event in your life. Take care out there.
@Jordan Jongema calm the f down. I know that sarcasm doesn’t translate in print but that is what this is.
Lol he’s clearly being sarcastic 🤣
yeah… I do find it kinda… mysterious? hilariously SMFH? the warnings have been out for days, I’m on the West Coast and was all whhhohoo Snow back east, where’s my coffee, let’s see it! and tuned in this morning to look at footage of All The Snow That Was Predicted, and we have this rodeo on the highways? Toronto WHAAAT u thinkin’…
While we are home, these heros are out there in the storm helping ppl!! hats off to them 🎩👒
Where is our useless mayor??? Hasnt said a word all day!
The Caribbean.?
Where’s Mel Lastman when you need him?😮
@GEORGE Duncan No, his multi million dollars gated property is in Florida.
@Dan He died. Shame on you
What does the mayor need to say exactly? What we already know? There’s allot of snow, be careful, stay home?
Much love from Victoria BC where it’s 9C with cloud cover. Have fun ya’ll.🥰👍🏾
wow officer Curry, thank you, soo inspirational, “turn off traction control” that’s smart!
It’s is if you ever tried to drive in deep snow. Traction control has its place but not there. You obviously don’t live in snow country.
It is…
LOL…take the bus
Super dummy wolf lol
Days like these, be grateful to be inside a cozy house, with the heat on
And under the Comforter with a hot chocolate! Lol but when I was a kid I’d be tobogganing!!!! Lol miss those days
Toronto will probably call in the military again to clear snow. Lmfao.
60-70 cm snow in a big city like Toronto in less then 15 hours. That is not a joke, it is crazy
Don’t blame those on the roads for some getting to work is a must and can’t really miss a single day of payday during these hard times
I had to help push a car this morning who had winter tires and front wheel drive. Problem was the car (Honda Civic or a Toyota) is too low to the ground when there is this much snow for even winter tires to handle.
It’s canada. No biggie. Just stay home. No excuses.

This wouldn’t happen to real Canadians….they know how to handle a bit of snow.
All the dummies just have to go to Yorkdale Mall or Starbucks. They don’t care how dangerous it is out there. That’s the person they hit’s problem.

Agreed. It was pretty rich to hear that when almost no employers, except publicly funded ones, have given their employees the option to stay home.

Ok. So instead risk your life or rack up a nice tow bill. You’re not making it to work anyway. You just wasted a day to sit on a frozen road all day.
I’m driving truck I don’t care about payment. This is my life end somebody to. This day I park my rig.

The idiiotic drivers who went out should be fined.
Now is the time to think about buying an electric car. Don’t forget when you leave home today to carry along a can of electricity just in case you get stuck in a snow bank and are stranded for hours.
kerry, you are the best, thank you for your service!
Failure somewhere for sure.
Ideally Snow Plow should have taken place right from midnight…..it was not at all done since morning 10 on main highways ….
Agree
