Hot water fountains should be placed (at the road level) on the roads so as not to accumulate snow on the roads. That will be cheaper when compared to the waste of fuel at the vehicle level, human resources, etc. 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
First time in my life for so long
Justin and his team will be introducing a STORM TAX to reduce winter weather next. What would Canadians do without Justin! THRIVE!
It's cold in Canada — and it can get colder.
What a joke, what would they do if they had to face Ontario's weather? Lol.
Been there YEARS ago…Same thing…Nothing new…Seen this many times…🤣🤣🤣
The lines of traffic are reminiscent of the enormous lift lines at Whistler last Saturday.
I blame global warming 😢
Roads are just horrible. So a guy just takes his bike out for a spin. lol
If they'd salt the highways sooner this wouldn't happen. They just wait for things to get bad
Snow?! In Canada? Impossible!
Is Vancouver in Canada or Asia ? ridiculous
stat safe monikammike and stella from your great grandparents in wpg
Coming from north central Wisconsin, i know snow and five months of driving rural roads in snow for five months out of every year. Now, living in Vancouver, i can honestly say that the microclimate of this city on the Salish Sea is different than most places where snow falls. In my opinion, it is best that people living in the greater lower mainland would do best to just stay home on snow days. We have no business driving. Stay home, bake some cookies or just get baked. Whatever folks do, just don't do it in a car on the road.
Vancouver doesn't get much snow, so what's the worry?
here in edmonton where's minus 40 with windchill, ucp REFUSES to even discuss folks DYING.
damn the ucp.
It was a perfect storm or bad conditions.
Fast and Furious storm.
Very little weather forecast warning
many Major Routes affected.
Storming as afternoon rush started
Vehicles with no snow tires
Driving on major hills
Lack of driving sense in bad conditions
Buses stuck in place
snow packed into ice on roads
you name you got it.
Maybe teach drivers how to drive in all conditions
Omg heavy snow? 😂😂😂😂 We who live further north in B.C feel so sorry for you inexperienced winter drivers.Ever hear of winter tires?
LMAO. Come to Alberta.
Matthew 4:17 NKJV

Adultery in the Heart
27 “You have heard that it was said [a]to those of old, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’
28 But I say to you that whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
29 If your right eye causes you to [b]sin, pluck it out and cast it from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell.
30 And if your right hand causes you to [c]sin, cut it off and cast it from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell.
Acts 20:21

1 Corinthians 6:9-10
New King James Version
9 Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor [a]homosexuals, nor [b]sodomites, 10 nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God.
1 John 3:6-10
New King James Version
6 Whoever abides in Him does not sin. Whoever sins has neither seen Him nor known Him.
7 Little children, let no one deceive you. He who practices righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous.
8 He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil.
9 Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God.
The Imperative of Love
10 In this the children of God and the children of the devil are manifest: Whoever does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is he who does not love his brother.
* REPENT of sin and have faith in Jesus Christ our Lord and saviour now and forever; for the forgiveness of your Sin and for the salvation of your soul.
Romans 6:23
New King James Version

In Montreal this would be "What snow?"
Nothing happens in Europe
Every year same story, not even 1/2 snow , but whole city broken, just too weak country!
So many horrible drivers in Vancouver i would not wanna live even close to Vancouver
I'm from pg but was in the worst of it here in van during it. It's definitely the packed ice that forms on the roads almost immediately that caused this mess. I was very surprised how a little snow can turn van into a ice rink. Luckily I had full winters with studs.
Oh my gosh, that looks so traumatic, carnage everywhere. LOL
Oh dear, its winter.
Come on CBC "Winter Storm Batters Vancouver" Heavy Snowfall…Are you guys kidding!!! A couple of centimeters of snow?????? LMAO Not sure what's worse, the headline or the unprepared drivers or the trumped up reporting😂😂
Hallelujah!!!! The daily Jesus devotional has been a huge part of my transformation, God is good🙌🏻🙌🏻, after years of addiction to drugs and sins God chased me down as I earn $112,500 monthly. My life and family has changed, Thank you Jesus!!!…
C'mon CBC Vancouver show the ridiculous video of the last major snow storm here where city employees were shoveling salt off the back of a pickup truck cuz the city is too stoopid to buy salt trucks like other major cities. 😂😂🤣🤣😆😆
Heavy snow? It was 2cm lol 😂
people in the lower mainland cant drive. and icbc just keeps giving people a d.l. what a damm joke
Albertan is battling with extreme cold weather!right now is -34 but feels like-44
Ya know, if the roads were made of rubber they would flex and ice would break up.
Turns out The Flintstones had it right the whole time with the wheels made of rock.
LOL, The reporter should pick a spot where they are heavy snow because from where she was that they are now snow. Our Alberta weather is -40c with snow. For goodness sake, just replace snow tires, less braking and drive normally.
My town we get 4 feet overnight we are still expected to show up for work
Maybe half these people will realize mustangs and challengers on summers doesn't work in this weather.
Lol heavy snow 😂
It took me 4.5 hours to drive home that night…
wild how 66k views gets #1 on trending
Organize against the VPD!!! Shut it down. Force them out.
I'll fix your title: Heavy snow reveals how terrible drivers are in Metro Vancouver
You're welcome.
we need more trudeau carbon tax to fix this
Nice to see the bicycle in the middle of the snarl, great thinking
Oh dear, its winter.🥶
Boo hoo.
You know, I really enjoy getting caught up on the news in Canada. It reminds me of how screwed up all aspects of the US is.
Its -52 windchill here this morning and schools are open.
I went over a speed bump the other day which would have taken to the bottom of the batteries of those EV things. So that would have been a $60,000.00 write off of it. Or maybe it would have just burnt up??
