Snow
Snow. It’s what makes us Canadian. We shovel it, we complain about it, and deep down I think we love it.
It brings out the best and worst in us. While many people were getting into crashes this past weekend, others were using it as a chance to do a good deed.
I saw people helping neighbours dig their cars out of their driveways, stopping to help a stranded motorist and even heard of people shoveling out the driveway of an elderly neighbour.
You can’t help but smile when you hear kids laugh and remember the days when you struggled into your snow pants to run out and play.
It also makes this time of year feel just a little more festive. It makes a bustling kitchen that much more cozy.
So as you’re cursing having to scrape off your car for the 20th time, stop and enjoy being Canadian.
