Crews were making steady progress against the piles of dirt encrusted snow filling the curb lanes of Mt. Pleasant Rd. north of St. Clair Ave E on Friday. The City’s excellent industrial snow blower is seen here blasting the filthy stuff into a truck at Heath St. At City Hall meanwhile there was some familiar hand-wringing going on about whether Toronto should have declared a snow emergency to deal with last weekend’s storm. Well, maybe. But here in Worry City we have to fret about things like streetcar delays, possible annoyance that a car might be towed (really?) and even whether Winnipeg might laugh at us. What could be more mortifying? God bless the hard working guys on Mt. Pleasant we say. They seem to be so functional, so useful. Mount Pleasant snow removal well underway
