No mayor of Vancouver has ever requested the army to aid in winter flurries. I think the moron factor is universal on the west coast and in central Canada. Too bad the TV cameras don't show the 90% of drivers who are driving somewhat responsibly. Only drivers in SK, MB, the territories and the Maritimes seem to escape nationwide ridicule. I believe Mercer just did a rant about the reluctance of some Torontonians to put on snow tires when it was snowing in December - with predictable results.
