Winter Walking and Cycling

[danbrotherston]

Perpetual debate of "fairness" in KW about snow clear responsibilities that seems to always land on "its too expensive and a pared back program supporting clearing on arterial and high pedestrian areas is unfair because taxpayers aren't getting their suburban sidewalks cleared too". As well as many using mediocre clearing in other cities as an excuse of why it wouldn't be worth the cost here either.

Exceptionally tiring.

So much this.

But what is infuriating is that literally every other city and town I routinely visit in Ontario has municipal sidewalk clearing. And every single one has vastly clearer sidewalks than KW, and yet you still have city councillors who sit there and INSIST that property owner clear is better. At this point, it's intentional dishonesty.
