tell that to all the others that do it too. and being on here, stating just that fact, will not make people stop. if you have addy, call cops and tell them, there is a fine ap for that.
Why shouldn’t the snow just disappear passed the curb? Garbage bags just disappear.
It’s a great mindset, out of sight out of mind.
Alot of people shovel their snow into the street and its really annoying.
maybe they think the chud’s will pick it up

Is C.H.U.D running for City Council?
Why, will your car slip and fall on the snow? If so, you need winter tires. If you have winter tires, what are you bitching about?
Actually, it does disappear…the cars turn it to slush, then between the salt and such, it turns to water. But, until that happens, snow packed on the road has more traction than a bare icy road.
Why shouldn’t I put it on the road ???
Some asshole drove down the street & pushed all the damn snow off the road & Filled up the end of my drive way ~:/
HRM is more worried about cats and the color of garbage bags
call HRM and they can give a ticket for this…it’s not the people who put a little on the road it’s the snow banks across a lane of traffic you have to be concerned about. Not only will HRM remove it if you tell them (since it’s a traffic hazard), they will also investigate and if you will be a witness, may give a ticket. That’ll show them down next time.
I can understand a little snow in the road, you know sometimes it’s just easier to push it into the road than actually lift. However, I came across a man snowblowing into the road. Snowblowing! I wanted to stop and give him a few good words from my French dictionary! What kind fo stank attitude is that? “Oh I’m gonna just shovel it into the road, who cares” I bet you leave you damn tim hortons cups lying around on walmart shelves as you push you degenerate child in a in a pram. To me it’s courtesy. You don’t shovel a mountain into the damn road, that’s just rude. I bet you put your dirty feet up on chairs at the theatres, I bet you honk your horn at every chance where it seems you’ve been wronged. Inconsiderate, unfriendly motherfuckers. (Ps, I’m a real hateful cursing mood today, and it’s not pms) lol
aah fuck the fucking fuckers donkster…no prisoners
it’s ’cause it’s Monday. good on you, Donk, tell ’em like it is!
Donkster, you are hard-core Spetznaz:

fg is correct on this one. It’s illegal to dump your snow on the roads.
Donk dear, it’s the age of entitlement, remember? No personal responsibility.
Ivan, link didn’t work 🙁
Lol Ivan. I am a Spetznaz
Yeah Hugo, true. I’d consider myself to an extent an entitled little prick. No, fo’ serious. I routinely abuse my parent’s pocket book and demand stuff that I do not need, but I would hope that I treat other people in a kind considerate manner. That includes the custodial staff cleaning after me in stores, other drivers etc.
Donk, I think you misread. It’s the inconsiderate people who block the roads, dump their junk etc., that I was calling self-entitled.
