For the record, the city plows trails, and sidewalks which are "backlotted", and sidewalks which abut city properties (and possibly things like railway ROWs).
It is depressing to see this. In my neighbourhood, there is a property that backs onto an adjacent street, with none of its neighbours doing the same. The municipality is this year very diligently clearing it with a plow that does a great job. It also seems to clear the sidewalk of the next door neighbour, but then turns on to the street and moseys on to whatever its next job is, leaving all the sidewalks in between uncleared. It's sad to witness.
