Here is the source.
I actually like how Toronto sets standards and let the public know for when they plow in cms. Much better than ours "Oh it is coming" Granted Toronto is much larger. | My apologies my good man! I read your post and automatically thought you were talking about here.

Because Vancourites can't salt worth beans.
They take "be salt of the earth" literally by salting everything and everywhere. Quote:

You don't buy a earthquake kit after there is an earthquake same goes for salt.

(they had a limit on 4 bags/customer) | When I work at Wal mart sometimes I am a dick to these ppl. I would tell them is per customer meaning each person have to line up and pay separately. So I made each of these ppl line up again =D. Some would get embarrass and only buy the limit for one person, other would go back and line up again.
