Have a wonderful day and stay safe!
How nice of people shoveling the entire highway by hand, great way to stay in shape. 🤣🤣🤣
Yes in the great country of Chinada, the people work together.
But it is not really enjoyable.
Gyms are closed, great way to exercise 🤣
@@canadian_shorts 😂
They were just shoveling to a few metres until less congested lane they can get to. I had close calls on this day, but I really appreciated my new Mazda C30. It did its job. If I had my old car - Kia Rio - as I did six weeks prior, oh, Lord have mercy.
I immigrated to Canada for 4 years in the 1970s after serving during that Vietnam thing. Worked 3 winters in the bush doing seismic (oil exploration) work in far north Saskatchewan and Alberta. Really a beautiful country Canada is with a LOT of wide open country. But you've got to be tough enough to handle those winters. Experienced more than a few "white-outs". Met some good folks up north there..
Who cares go get yourself vaccinated
🙏🙏🙏
I was 18 when my parents decided to immigrate to Toronto, Canada in 1990. I have seen a few really bad winters in the last 32 years but I gotta be honest it is not as bad as some folks think. Yes there are days where you cannot leave your house but then we always have clear blue skies and sunny days in winter. I love the Winter season and cannot imagine living anywhere else in the world. Canada is truly the best country in world.

A Torontonian living in Texas, wow I don't miss this. Thanks for sharing.
Lucky! 🙂, Thank you for watching
likewise watching from Thailand
get me out of this hell hole !
@@oldskool1979 Your geography is wonkers. Hell's thermometer goes in the opposite direction. Our snow has stopped falling down but the wind is now blowing what fell sideways. And, it is chilly - like somewhere -0, I'm afraid to look.
you had the winter storm in feb. 2021 in Texas. did you forget?
beautiful show 🇨🇦
You are a brave soul. Thank you for the great video 👍
Thank you for watching
Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Thanks because I have a Chevy Tahoe 4x4 1997 year, and have no problems in the snow w/Copper tires on her again thanks keep moving !!!!!!!!!
Thanks for sharing..Take Care..
Thank you!
Wow, lots of snow! Thanks for sharing this video!
Thank you

Bus driver arriving at the stop on time...nailed it !
are these people going to the office for work? wow employee of the month
i went out to talk my dog yesterday and she sank completely in the snow lol
I love my 4x4 F150 truck on normal days, but on days like these my appreciation if off the charts. Had no issues whatsoever going to work and back. It was actually fun to drive on the amount of snow that we got today. Snow tires on FWD cars was useless for many.
@Me Of Course Agreed. You still have to be cautious / drive according to the conditions. But having the extra weight, ground clearance, larger tires, and TRUE 4x4 transmission makes it a lot less stressful.
me too i can plow through 2 feet of snow not an issue for my classic 2 door Tahoe 4x4
@@matthewgonano636 Its not bad on gas has a new motor and i do not drive it every day. i own 20 vehicles I do well with my business I can afford endless gas. It rains a lot it snows sometimes and my street is on a hill. 4x4 is a must in Canada. I have cars also but in winter i drive my 4x4's I own three.
@@matthewgonano636 Didn't buy it for the snow. That's a side benefit. I use my truck to tow my boat, and my RV (separately, of course). If you know a car that can do that, let me know.
@@jaxwylde2139 Volvo S60
I'm glad I stayed home. Some cars and trucks on 401 were stuck for over 8 hours. Probably still there.
TTC said 540 buses were stuck in the snow. Lots couldn't make it up hills.
So, boys and girls. What have we learned? Hmmm?
1. Stay home if you can 2. Put damn f...king snow tires on your car 3. Put a shovel in the trunk
4. Stay home even if you can't. Because you're not going anywhere anyways, you're going to be stuck on a road or highway for HOURS!
Yeah there are real risks other than a long wait too I knew a girl lost a few toes to frostbite in the country her car broke down she tried to walk through a snowy field for help in sneakers...
I like much this video , thankyou for sharing 👍🥰👍
Thanks for this! I'm glad I didn't go anywhere today!
You are welcome. Yea, it was bad... unless you have 4x4 with good winter tires and some ground clearance - it was a bad idea to drive around
Niagara, Welland got the same amount of snow up to 50 to 60cm of snow! it was crazy some of the cars you couldn't even see due to the snow is was wild!!!
以前多倫多碰上這樣的大雪天氣,凌晨3-4點鐘鏟雪車就出動了,到了6點左右上班高峰時,高速公路和主要幹道早就都鏟過雪、撒過鹽了,不會影響出行。但是現在,鏟雪工人基本上都要等到正常上班時間才會出來,週末也不會來鏟雪。所以每一場大雪後交通就癱瘓,最明智的做法就是向老板請假,不出去了,在家待一天。
A Torontonian living in San Diego I don’t miss this at all
I bet you miss the food not being bored. San Diego is the most sleepy big city i ever been to but very nice just a bit north La Jolla is a dream
Kathy C lucky you!
wow crazy snow ⛄️ beautiful
That snowfall really caught those motorists out and I am suprised to see so many front wheel drives out with snow forecast. Brilliant video as it made me feel cold watching it 😂. Thanks and stay safe.
Quebec: winter tires mandatory. I can see cars stuck in not that much snow with all seasons
I'll guarantee that 90% of those vehicles don't have snow tires on them.
Or chains...
90 percent of these drivers are new immigrants from 3rd world hot climates lol
I will guarantee that 100 per cent of those idiots cant drive on dry roads when the sun is out THEY ARE FROM TORONTO
@@aquamastertheonlyone Chains aren't allowed in Ontario
i watched the video again and its probably 99%. feel bad for transit and commercial drivers though
Nice video log of the snow storm...
Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for watching
When you live in Canada you need a jeep, thankfully I own one.
This is just another winter day on the East coast of Canada.
Exactly .. lived in Moncton and this storm is just a normal one there but I find Atlantic guys are more prepared and work all night to plow.. not in ON.. lol
So lucky that I live in western Canada. Didn’t even snow in southern Alberta till mid December I think. Y’all’s snow in the east is waaay worse
I want to go to Toronto this past weekend too! Glad I didn't
That was fun. I never knew Canadians were such crazy parkers.
No reason to got out. Safety is my number one priority.
Great video coverage of the storm.
Thank you
Well , shovelling in the snow ❄️ is a good experience.
Thank you for the video! Great job!
Thank you for watching
Always remember Toronto Canada
To all the people who thought all season tires will do, lmao!
Maybe instead of spending millions on harrassing land defenders with RCMP, the gov can help supply proper snow removal to the cities.... This is abhorant.
Wow ! If there was a BEER truck stranded I'd be helping myself out ! 🤣lol
Never ceases to amaze
Toronto got got 56cm of snow in just 16hrs. So much even city plows got stuck or stuck behind cars. I walked home from work, took me 3hrs because TTC not running.
@dolimi jotoo are you Rob S 🤡
We haven’t had snow in a while so I think, today is nature’s way of reminding us of winter’s wrath.
every snow is usually 10 cm, finally a real storm lol
This storm is unusual in that it blew up through the US. This particular pattern usually misses Ontario and strikes Quebec through the Maritimes. You may get find the copious snow comfortingly traditional but the storm is still quite unusual.
in the comments section they know it all,what a bunch of smart people,i bet they never had problems in their lifes.
When I grew up in Nova Scotia my dad always carried four small sections of plywood, big bag of gravel like kitty litter ( we didn't have a cat) chains and a tow rope. The only time we got stuck was an Xmas Eve during a windy blizzard. The engine kept cutting out from the wind . Once we turned around and the wind was pushing us we made it back to my parents' friends place.
I would imagine the snowplow drivers are short staffed due to Covid / Omicron.
People should have stayed off the roads
Yes it's not worth going to work, school or anything else in this weather.
You should have stayed up of the roads when you were a kid
@@davehenderson3739 Agree with you 1,000 %, however I have had the misfortune to have worked at places that demand that you show up at 8AM sharp even during weather like this and not even be 5 seconds late (just to make sub-minimum wage pay).
@@billdang3953 It's not worth working for those asses.
😲Model A Ford's weren't the best in the winter ❄️.
well done
Most of the cars stuck in the snow more than likely had all season tires. If this storm didn't convince motorists to invest in a set, then they are just plain dumb
I feel sorry for everyone that worked yesterday,yesterday was really terrible,may God keep us all.
its said how healthcare workers were forced to still go in to work because they're deemed to essential. my wife was stuck going to work for 4 hours
god has nothing to do with this
@@Agudar1 ? I don't know 1 business that closed here.
@@Agudar1 Healthcare workers are also shamed into working as if they can't get in, the previous staff can't leave or even get some sleep on a spare bed or boardroom table.
Awesome! Very Relaxing, thank you for this!
Great coverage of a terrible winter storm!
Get 4 winter tires. When Quebec passed this law in the 90’s winter accidents dropped by half.
The summer tyre squad having the first 'winter snow meeting' there.
In cornwall UK we get zero snow.. In 30 years its snowed twice! Once was a tiny spattering which had melted within few hours an the second time a few inches (if that) which again had melted by morning and for this amount of snow they shut all the schools, the main highway into cornwall an so many roads!.. No joke we cornish literally freak out if we get an inch of snow down here.. I can't fathom Canada, how people are out driving in those conditions! Great vid.
Thank you
I guess this part of Canada doesn't require snow tires...
Depending on the car you would need chains too. Even with three peaks.
Its too expensive to even breathe in toronto.. no money left for snow tires lol
No.
video is Toronto in the province of Ontario. Transport matters are governed by the provincial government and no you didn't have to have snow tires there. When I was young I never bothered (yes I think I was daft looking back).
This is just crazy. I came back to school after weeks and I had to help at least a handful of people. Me as a tall person had so much trouble walking in the snow. It was crazy.
Why so tall? Thyroid issue? The Netherlands has the tallest people in the world. If you could go to school there , you wouldn't have to help anyone. Plus , I believe they give you one free pair of snow shoes once you pay your tuition fees. Wish I was tall though tbh because they always put the food food on the higher shelves ( which I have to ask a tall person like yourself to reach for me ) and I appreciate that..But , they always seem to put the pet food on the middle shelves ( which I can reach) and I don't have a pet. We had a Great Dane when I was younger I was able to ride him like a horse until I was about 17 when he died . Well I hope you get rid of the snow soon so it's easy for you to walk in ..👌🤜🤛
Excellent video. I love seeing people who have slicks on there cars trying to drive through snow. Oh and 4 inches of ground clearance thinking they are going to plow through 24 inches of snow, just makes you shake your head.👍🍻
Thanks 👍
That's true. These people are usually the ones that give you a dirty look as your driving by in a 4x4. Even if you stop to help pull them out, they are more than likely to be stuck in the next minute.
Cool this place look cold and lonely hope everyone inside or getting home now take care all
Love Canada and doesn’t matter that sometimes we have winter storms we are real North and this is even exciting
👍👍👍👍👍👍😍
Welcome to the average winter day just about everywhere else in Canada.
This is once in a decade snow fall.
This isn’t a typical winter day or typical winter storm in Ontario. Huge storms can happen a few times a season, but I haven’t experienced a storm involving this much snow and chaos for a very long time. This year so far involves a lot of snow, not so much other years.
@@heather2655 Yes this is once in a decade snowfall, very unusual. Usually the GTA would get 10cm max at a time.
@@davehenderson3739 depends on ground temperature, if 10cm come down gradually overnight it really means 5-7cm, even less hardpacked, wonderland arrives only when it hits 15cm+, vehicles run into ground clearance issue at certain spots, uneven ground elevation and traction surface seems to unsettling enough that people had difficulty dealing with it, more training and equipment recommended
Good morning wow what a storm stay safe stay warm you must have snow tires or chains ❄️❄️❄️❄️🥶🥶💙🙏🏽
You are right - snow tires + 4x4 vehicle
I live in the North, watch the forecast for days and days. Get all my groceries for a month and never leave the house for anything. Then sit and watch youtube and wonder why people are out driving in this mess when we've all been warned.
Ditto to everything you said. Plus the no snow tires thing
Finally someone with common sense not many of us left LOL
It's not as much fun having too much common sense I reckin...Ahhh
except uphills, roads (not traffic) in the video are not that bad, this is drivable conditions with the right equipment and driver training, snow has not reached vehicle bottom unless they (lost control) ran into the snow bank and suffer damage, think in term of vector thrust, space out and be patient, are people just giving up and parking it on 401?
Toronto is so used to mild winters and little snow, paved flat roads with everything conveniently located they are easily led into false dependent reality. As soon as I left I quickly moved into prepping for everything and stayed with that perspective. Down side is that I have to take my garbage to the dump pick up mail at post office. Upside is going to the dump and PO catching up with neighbors and local news. Whole other reality of more self responsibility.
I Remember my First snow storm,bad experience,but i love snow because in Italy when i lived Is very hard snowing :(
Jeez, I live in Vancouver and I still make sure to have good tires. If I lived East of Alberta I would make darn sure to have snow tires.
Looks like nobody was prepared at all.
Ist Toronto.. no one is prepeared unless you are in a tim hortons drive thru
Nice work on your part Lvfree. It would have been preferred to explain or detail your locations/routes in your video as they happened during the blizzard. It was a monumental snowstorm for the GTA nonetheless.
A blizzard without the proper warning! They knew it was gonna snow boatloads Sunday night into Monday. But they didn't know it was a blizzard until 759am Monday! Nice work environment Canada. Give em all raises
In BC, winter tires are mandatory. You’d think they’d be everywhere.
Everyone has winter tires in Ontario.
Plus 6 in Central Alberta today🤷♀️
Chinook? I miss those 🙂
It was so bad I couldn’t even shovel my driveway and my dog couldn’t even go pee! It’s also bad in Toronto.
this is amazing
Snow shoveling does burn alot of calories great exercise I wish we had snow here
I'm in Missouri USA; be careful shoveling. Some winters ago, I had a strong neighbor who went outside to shovel his parking area. I could see him from my patio door. After awhile of shoveling, he opened his car door and sat in the driver's seat. He never got up.
Slumped a bit, and died right there.
Thanks for sharing, but what kind of a car you are driving, pretty reliable on snowy day like today.
My 12 year old H3 with winter tires
@@lvfreeAdventures nice 👍
Life comes to standstill seriously in this time. Govt should be prepared to help
Great to see all these immigrants experience what we did back in the 60s LOL~ if the news says a STORM is coming STAY THE FUCK HOME unless it's an emergency and I don't mean a box of beer or milk and bread. I lived through this in the North of Ontario all my life so this is nothing to me I helped 24 seniors clear driveways then went back home and had a hot chocolate and watched Netflix all day. Be smart if you want to be a Canadian traveler. Patience and help others is the key~
I'm from W. Pa. and I'll be shoveling out tomorrow. We got about 8" of snow yesterday and today. It doesn't even look like they got as much as we did here.
Same here in NC Magoo Lew. Stay safe.
This is 22 inches, you cant tell because its highway
they didn't clean the roads thats there was so much a miss this.
We had snow like that in Vancouver 2 weeks ago my 4x4 Tahoe with ko2 tires plowed through anything not a chance of getting stuck. Hey car owners time for awd or 4x4
Thank u 🙏 for video 📹. All day waiting for this video 📹.
Thank you for watching. More snow videos coming tomorrow
Thank you for this video. So many vehicles stuck on the roads but you drive with no problem. How is that? Why can't people stay at home when it gets this bad?
I tend to think that people sometime overestimate what their vehicles can do. I always encourage people to learn about car that you buy and how car drives in different weather conditions. Unfortunately, driving school don't teach that
People went out just to see the weather and they get stuck and cause traffic 😂
That's very brave! ❤
Uf sorprendentes imagenes
Scary ... you are brave and often driving sometimes so fast I gasped. LOL
I know my car very well 🙂
I love the video ,
Snow all over .
The snow is beautiful though
You know its bad when the Buses get stuck!
i you drive anywhere there is snow be prepared - a shovel , some sand in a bucket , also for weight , a tow rope some gloves and a blanket
They should have been prepared this is Canada not Hawaii
The dynamics of something has changed. Why are so many vehicles stuck ? Snow was worse when I was young and we were never stuck.
I bet you were (stuck the odd time) but you only remember the fun you had.
More vehicles on the road, everyone thinking they are invincible an driving in such conditions. Newer vehicles that are more comfortable, so you feel less of the bad conditions. Add in less experienced/ less common sense drivers, it all equals this kind of ShIt show.
Stupidity
You also had steel studded snow tires tires allowed...if you had them on...you were always good to go...but, they tore up the roads and were outlawed...
Cars today are the weight of a soda can, everyone wants wide tires, rims and no sidewall …it’s basically a fidget spinner with 4 wheels …. Back in the day cars weighed 5000 lbs with 205/75/r15’s…. How many times have you seen a delta 88 stuck in the snow or a Ltd …. Never
First priority on Toronto's mayor and Ontario's PM agendas: get the people vaccinated, no matter what, everything else can wait. Do you see any plow on the HWY? That's management and leadership!
I felt so bad for those stuck in this mess. Hope they all got home safely....😊
Some of them were there for 8 hours
Very nice video, amazing content! 💖😍🌹 God bless u and your family… 🌹Thank you for making us happy and smiling. Keep rising and shining... 🌹🌹Sending lots of love💕from Sydney, Australia.
Thank you very much for watching!
OMG beautiful ❄🇨🇦🍁.this is not easy, you are my favourite Vlogger. Thanks 👌❤.
Thanks so much 😊
Here in France, just 5 cm snow causes the same traffic jams.... Courage à vous les canadiens !
should have learn from the Finns
Winter tires, full tank of gas, traction control off , no speeding and no excessive braking. Keep these in mind for the next blizzard and you’d be good.
Agreed, and the right type of automobile. If the snow is over your front bumper, chances are your not getting very far.
@@RH50M I’ve gotten out of deep snow back when I had my civic and even pulled a few cars & trucks out of ditch simply by having the right tires for the season and not flooring it like I’m on a drag strip. Unfortunately our driving schools don’t teach the important stuff such as how to drive in bad weather conditions.
I wonder what happened to snow plowing system. Back about 20-30 years ago there were raw of snow plowers going on streets as soon as snow fall starts. I’d never seen disaster like that. We are northern country. Should’ve been prepared.
thats what I was asking?
Yup. Same in Vancouver area when we got smoked. It's like we sold all our plows. The few I saw where early 2000's dump trucks with plows fixed. Not the purpose built yellow big trucks with the giant curved plow with a salt/sand spreader on the back. On the main runs as the snow starts so they are all clear consistently to move around to other areas.. In the end most of the removal was done with normal heavy machines. Graters and front end loaders.
What happened was climate change happened. And for over the past decade Toronto hasn’t experienced this type of snowfall. No point in funding a huge snow plow organization for 1 day every 10+ years now. Back in the days these snowfalls were more common, which would make sense to invest into a lot of plows, but not anymore. But agree to disagree, we should have been at least a little prepared.
governments in most western nations have been focusing more and more on ideas and ideology rather than practical matters. I'm only 47 but when I was a kid their focus was on major infrastructure. This day in age the focus is on woke identity politics. There are only so may hours in the day and so much money to go around. A science teacher in grade 11 would often say to us "there is no such thing as a free lunch". An economics professor on day one of economics 101 said "economics is the study have how society allocated limited resources to unlimited needs and wants".
I suspect also if you have some people out of work because they didn't vaxx or they have to isolate for positive test it can have a huge impact even if it is only a few out of action or off sick or at home. We run things at the bare bones now (to be economically efficient), I used to experience this at a job I had 10 years ago. If one guy called in sick we were stretched to near breaking point. They had barely enough people working a shift to cope, designed that way to be "economical". As I said I'm only 47 and I've seen a huge change in the workplace in my life.
Oh well...
@@HipsterFromMars I'd say the focus and attention on things like global warming (which they've been threatening us with since the late 80s believe me) rather than on practical matters is why we are where we are at.
Very good.enjoy it beutiful snow.haha
СПАСИБО
I wonder how many of these stuck people will actually go buy winter tires now......lmao
Ontario needs to make them mandatory during winter like in Quebec. It's a joke how it isn't. Every major snowstorm I see cars that are struggling for traction, or get stuck all together. One look at the tread pattern and they're all seasons always. Meanwhile me and other cars with winters are just flying right by all season idiots with all the confidence in the world
Nice
