Well, I was in Georgetown Thursday and Friday. They had received 14" (35.5 CM). It wasn't too bad though, they really clean up the roads quickly, the only problem I had was the hotel parking lot, which had yet to be plowed.
I was driving on the QEW doing 85 to 90 MPH (136 to 145 KPH) and I had cars passing me as if I was standing still.
One of the things I like about Canada is the fact it looks so clean. I was in areas that had little or no snow and everything looks clean, no trash thrown on the streets. The other thing is everywhere you go you feel safe. I imagine that there has to be places where it might not be safe, but I've never made a visit there where I went into an area that was dirty or unsafe feeling.:AOK:
The other thing I noticed during this visit was the fact they were having a housing boom in and around the Georgetown area. I was told that people were buying houses in phase one of a new development and selling them for a profit when phase two and three were being built. New houses everywhere.
I found it tougher to get into Canada than it was to get back in the US. Picture ID, birth certificate or passport and a lengthy series of questions to get into Canada. To get back in the U.S., I think a note from your mother will suffice.
