When I was a freshman in a U.S. college I hung out with a group of friends from my little hometown just south of Calgary, Canada. We were appalled by the lack of knowledge of our American roommates (and most of our fellow student body) about our beloved homeland. On October 13th that year we decided to celebrate Canadian Halloween. We dressed up in costumes and went around trick or treating (mostly around girls’ housing complexes.)
There is no special Canadian Halloween (unlike Canadian Thanksgiving, Independence Day, Remembrance day, Family Day etc.) but my recollection is that most of the people we trick or treated to were quite open to our Canadian culture when we announced it was Canadian Halloween. If they didn’t have candy we said we’d take canned soup or any type of food. I don’t think we had to go shopping that week and we met a ton of girls. Although I’m sure most of the girls we met decided that they would never date a Canadian after meeting our motley crew.
What does this have to do with snow removal tips? You can believe me without question or you can test this out first when it snows this winter.

But don’t just take my word for it. I once swindled a whole apartment complex out of all their precious chocolates and candy.
