How Charlottetown Clears Our Snow

Peter Rukavina

It snowed yesterday, quite a lot. School was closed, and then it was closed again today given the condition of rural roads. I stuck my phone on the front screen door this morning as the snowblower and its symbiotic dump trucks moved by 100 Prince Street. This method of clearing and removing the snow happens across downtown Charlottetown after a big storm: the snow gets gathered into the middle of the street into a big pile, and then the giant blower gets it into dump trucks that cart it off to the snow dump.

When we lived on Euston Street, my kids called this the Truck Parade. The line of dump trucks is so impressive.
