The drivers were caught out and hadnt got their winters tyres on and the highway was blocked from Vancouver to the north with skidded cars and trucks /.

They also had major forest fires all along the east coast and mountains and lost huge amounts of forestry . They also get weather events they cannot cope with

Its a Red Warning and you shoudnt be outside at all from 4pm to 12pm tomorrow. Also, the reporters on the "front line". I presume for them its a case of "we don't care if you get hurt whilst outside making reports, its in your contract that you take that risk in these situations"?. I certainly would feel very dodgy going anywhere today even if it was for my job..
