    I could be wrong because I've never seen this particular clip before, but I'm pretty positive that truck was sliding on what we call black ice, not water. Black ice is probably one of, if not the most, dangerous parts of winter in Canada because it's really hard to spot while driving and causes tons car crashes every year.

    Boiling water is definitely not the solution to an iced door. If it's cold enough that you've got a layer of ice on your car rather than snow, the water you pour on it will freeze too and can cause difficulties when you want to get out of the car. We actually use an ice scraper for this rather than a hair dryer, though.
    That -21 one is so true. Ofc it's a bit of an exaggeration, but -5 is comfortable in a toque and a sweater. It's not until -20 or so that it really hits you. That's about where frostbite becomes a serious threat, and you don't want any exposed skin any more.

      The below zero temperatures are true for the most part...but depending on humidity levels you will feel colder sooner (at higher temps) in damp regions than in dryer climates...for those of us more acclimated, living in Ottawa is much colder than living in Calgary I am told even when both are at -20. I cam say that a toque and a handknit sweater are all you need at -10 on the Rideau Canal...but -15, you'll need more layers. Good luck in the snow and ice everyone!

Once we start hitting -30 with windchills hitting -34 that's when we get right miserable. The problem with living in an area that is both humid and cold is that the water in the air will stick to everything and make those things damp, including you and your clothes. So a huge difference in Alberta is that it is easier to stay dry which in turn keeps you warmer.

      Most of the milk I see now is in a carton or plastic jug. But, I grew up with bags. Often they were 1.5L, because a full 2L is too big and unwieldy and a mere 1L is too little.
      The environmental savings in packaging material (and weight for shipping) made the bags a great thing.
      Now, I can take milk cartons/jugs to the bottle depot for recycling (and money back) so I don't feel much environmental-guilt.

    Sitting around, still surrounded by snow with just a t-shirt on the first "spring like" days is just par for the course in canada, sure it's probably below zero but the sun feels nice. Where I live in Ontario it is not uncommon to have 20+ snow day school cancellations per winter as the snow can fly October through May.

    As counterintuitive as it may seem, using hot water to melt the ice on a car door might actually exacerbate the situation because of the "Mpemba effect" (named after the student who discovered it), wherein given certain conditions hot water will freeze faster than cold water. I've seen videos of people throwing boiling water (from a pot) into -40 degree air and the water almost instantly turning into a cloud of ice crystals. It's quite spectacular to see and you can find videos of this on TH-cam.

    I think you're overcomplicating the bagged milk situation. Twice in this compilation they showed the "big bag'... The bag is just a container bag that holds the three pillow shaped smaller bags.
    1. Buy bag of milk (4L)
    2. Open bag of milk, it's just like a bread bag. Same tag and everything.
    3. Inside the milk bag are three pillow shaped pouches/bags. Each one of those contains 1.33 L
    4. Put one of these small pillow pouches in the special jug, banging on the counter to make sure the bag is fully seated.
    5. Snip the corner off of the bag of milk
    6. Enjoy

      As long as the ice is thick and smooth enough. We used to shovel snow snow off the lake and skate if it was smooth enough. Generally it is pretty bumpy. Have driven across the lake many times but only after the reserve has plowed it with the big snow plow. If the ice is strong enough to carry the heavy plow, it is strong enough for cars and trucks. Just stop using it when the ice road is not plowed. The ice is too thin then and you can get stuck or drown if it goes down.

    Okay, couple of notes: boiling water can almost instantaneously freeze more and cause more problems. 14• is not the hottest we get - in the spring, 14•C is on the upswing and we begin transitioning from winter clothes, in the Fall, 14•C is when we start wearing sweaters before the full snow gear comes on. The bags are about 1 L and do have a larger bag. COVID killed the real roll up the rim - it’s online now. Depending where we are, the temperature can be from -40•C up to +40•C. Neither is comfortable. Best seasons are Spring and Fall. Spring last about a week or two (maybe a month) before we jump to summer. Fall is beautiful and we often switch to an Indian summer for a week or so in October. Although we sometimes have snow at Halloween, not always. The sliding car was on black ice - super dangerous! One of my nephews was born in Australia and my sister was pregnant during the Australian summer with no A/C - I’ve heard the complaints. Still would love to visit someday! Cheers from Canada.

    It's not the temperature when it snowed, but the temperature when the picture was taken. The snow doesn't go away right away just because it is warm out.
    First picture, notice the lack of snow on the trees and signs that the snow is melting when he sits down in his t-shirt . But also note that, even if it was -30 C, that's how he would dress to go to the mail box or turn on the BBQ.
    The snow in the parking lot - it could be shorts and halter top weather but all the snow isn't completely gone yet. There is usually an April blizzard right before it turns warm.

    A lot of people here (North of Toronto)have hot tubs in their backyards. They brush off the snow and get in all year round, in the winter it’s a very typical thing to do with a glass of wine or a beer!! Yes even if it’s -20…😬 Also there are many sunny days in winter especially after a snow snow. That pile of snow was dirty because in parking lots, the snow plows shovel and pile up the snow in a corner and it stays there all winter until the snow melts. Mostly from Dec-March

    We actually wake up earlier in the winter to clear snow and ice from our car. Also, hot water on cold ice could also caught thermal shock and crack the windshield. We don't normally use a hair dryer. We hit it with an ice scraper. We don't keep tugging on the door handle. Don't want to break it. Just kind of crack the ice first and thin it out before actually attempting to open the door like that.
    Also, hitting the milk jug on the counter -- it's so the milk sits in the jug properly instead of falling out when trying to pour.

But things are changing, on my property I have a pond that used to freeze over in December and I would clear it off so we could skate on it over Christmas and New Years, now it's mid January before the ice is thick enough to clear the pond for skating.

    As for temperature swings... I've seen many a year have a 70⁰C swing (or there abouts) not counting windchill or humidex! Not uncommon to see a few winter days drop to -35 or lower, and then hit mid 30's in the summer!

The oldest used to do interviews for Much Music.
    It hAs to be a pretty warm winter day for that to happen - when it is warm enough for the snow to melt then refreeze. And, yes, the hair blower is not only good for drying hair. That doesn't happen at -20 C, but it happens at -5 C.

    September is the month of Terry Fox runs. Schools all over the country raise funds to donate to cancer research and then spend an afternoon out running around the school yards.

    The milk jug is taking the bag of milk and having it to the bottom of the milk jug, the air pocket actually makes it difficult to pour the milk without it making a mess everywhere.

    There’s a Terry Fox day. He is the guy who had cancer and tried to cross the country on foot but had to stop. Another guy who survived cancer named Steve Fonyo finished it. The problem with skating on the ice, is that it is not always thick enough.
    They are showing the individual 1 litre bags come in a larger bag of 3.
    It is true that after the cold winter 14 degrees feels pretty warm, but where most Canadians like within 100 miles of the border,and even up north, in the summer it is often above 30 C not a including the humidity, which makes it warmer. Same in the winter. The windchill makes it colder. The snow that the guy was sitting out in was relatively dry and so is more comfortable to sit outside in. When it’s wet snowy it is wetter and colder, usually with winds that makes it worse.

    Greetings from the Colonies.
    First, yes...buddy was banging the milk to make it drop to the bottom of the "jug" before cutting it, or it would just make a mess.
    Second, buddy later in the video may have small hands, but he was indeed holding a 1 litre bag, 3 of which come in a bag of milk.
    Finally, water causes hydroplaning, it does NOT slow you down, it removes all control over the vehicle - especially if it covers black ice !!!!

    Tapping/slamming the milk jug gets the bag down to the bottom. A downward shake will usually work too.
    Hot water might melt the ice, it might also refreeze making the problem worse. It might even crack the glass of the window. Personally, when my car door is crusted in ice like that I give it a couple of hip checks. Usually loosens it up. Worse case scenario: car key becomes a miniature ice scraper.
    The milk in the grocery store early on (5th video or so) was a bag of 3 bags. Open that bag & there are the 3 of the 'small' (1.33L) clear plastic bags you saw in the other videos.

    Seeing that frozen car door is the reason why having a Tesla electric car here in Canada is a waste time. You think there would be any charged up stations in the Northern Territory of Nunavut? No the Canadian government wouldn't put them in the middle of nowhere up there. You know what's precious to the Inuits in Nunavut? Oil and gas. Gas for their ATV to drive around in the Summer time or Autumn before the snow comes. And gas for their snowmobiles in the Winter ❄️ time. Does the Liberal Trudeau Government think that having an electric snowmobile is going to cut it way up there in Canada's Northern Territory of Nunavut or the NWT or the Yukon? I guess it's back to the dog and 🛷 sled for the Canadians up in Canada's Northern Territories? And what is the Canadian government going to do if there's a power outages anywhere in Canada? It happens sometimes here in Canada. Oh I know? Get one of those portable generators to plug in to keep the power on. Oops I forgot the generator needs some juice as in gas to get the motor started.
