I think you're right, it's a sidewalk, so it's the municipality that's responsible, ultimately. If it happens that the property is owned by a different level of government, well, like you say, they can take it to them. But the municipal government needs to keep it clear. I mean, theoretically.
It was surprising to me that you said that, because I called the other week about the area around the tracks on Duke Street, and they took my complaint. Maybe they didn't understand- the uncleared area included the track right-of-way, but also properties on either side- and I don't know if there was follow up. Sometimes, with these issues, it seems like there are varying levels of understanding and differing opinions among the call centre staff.
