Today’s Weather Trivia:
1 December 2008: Sudbury, ON, residents awoke to 10 cm of snow. The next day, a disabled person got stuck for 2 hours in his electric wheelchair in a sidewalk snowbank. A pedestrian reluctantly pushed him onto a busy, 6-lane roadway. Motorists honked and rolled down windows to curse him. The City responded that when sidewalks are impassable, disabled residents should use Handi-Transit. – Excerpt from 'The Canadian Weather Trivia Calendar' by David Phillips. © Environment Canada
