			Shovels..........  
Princess Auto 
Lee Valley Tools 
Costco  
Saw some about a month ago at that creepy army surplus place on Broadway near Clarke Drive.  
I have this one 0 from Lee Valley Tools   http://www.leevalley.com/en/garden/p...=2,40725,45454 
Phone these places in case the stuff is sold out. I bought mine in the summer for winter use.

			Not sure if this is worth mentioning but I think KMS Tools has snow shovels as well. I thought I should mention it just incase other stores run out and someone needs one immediately. Not sure on the quality of the shovel but according to their website its on sale.

			Just drove from my house to VGH ... honestly not THAT bad. Typical skidding when accelerating/braking hard but otherwise not so bad. Driving a RWD with 70% all seasons btw    
No ice (yet) so

			We got almost 3 inches of fresh snow on SFU.  Combine that with the stuff from yesterday, there was almost a foot of snow infront of my truck. 
Stuck her in 4Lo for fun, gunned it and got out like a boss.      No problems with my Nokian tires.
