They dump it in fileds around town. Creating enormous snow/sand/salt mountains that melt till fckn june....

[PrayerCoach]

Thank you for your prompt reply an kind information. I've been addicted to snow and Canadian snowblowers so much I'm starting to miss it. Although in Boston I hated it.

J'ai eu à quelques reprise l'occasion d'assister à l'enlèvement de la neige en direct d'un camion (en tant que passager). Quand vous êtes en voiture en que vous voyez cette machinerie à l'oeuvre, un seul conseil! Otez-vous dedans leur chemin! Vous ne faites pas le poids en Honda Civic ou un Toyota Yaris! Ne faites pas votre Smart! hihihi!

J'menuis des bonnes vielles Sicard qui fesaient trembler les murs et les vitres de mon logement à Verdun sans compter les grosses chenillettes Bombardier qui nettoyaient les ruelles.

That reminds me of combining grain until you said minus 20c somthing!

[daliajade]

Hey great video! Whenever I come to Montreal in the winter I love watching the trucks clean the roads. It's amazing!

[wnaburgencesante]

Le neige aller a' Rosemont la a mon avis. Ici a' Chicago beaucoup annee's dernier le ville jeter neige dans le rivere Chicago, le raison pourquoi c'etais polluted advent avec le sel de rue.

[gungasdindin]

-38 celsius. -40 c and -40 f are the same.

A lot colder than you suggest.

[redcollargedeon]

Hey François! I'm in Montreal and yeah, I've seen this scene many times. You did good sir, giving our american friends an idea of that happens after a storm.

I have youtube friends in Portugal and the USA, so some of them only see snow on TV.

But it's a fact of life for us.

5 stars. Good video.

thank you, i loved watching this as a child, and still do, but cannot see it much anymore since moving to Miami.

[francsois]

Still, i think they should toss the sidewalk snow next to buildings as much as possible rather than transporting it and dumping it, which creates more air and ground pollution (as it melts in the spring).

[Superiorpakfan]

@francsois Thats not good idea. 1. The snow blowers will be constantly out on the road during the major snow seasons and pile of snows will build up and could be a Hazard to blocking doors, windows fire exits etc. 2. What happens if there were a brick, rock or any hard metirial in the snow and the blower spits it out hitting a car or property window? dont think the council will want to be held responsible.

[francsois]

This often happens in the middle of the night, and is many times noisier than on this vid. Needless to say, it does wake up many people. A after big snowstorms, they usually work 24 hrs a day for a few days to clear streets and sidewalks.

The snow (& calcium spread on the streets to diminish sliding of cars) now end up in some industrial wasteland in the suburbs. (Before it was dumped directly in the St. Lawrence River...)

Ce n'est pas habituel qu'ils dompent la neige dans le St-Laurent , c'est même interdit . Mais cet hiver ont ne sait plus ou la mettre ...
