The water on the ground doesn't magically turn into snow.

After listening to him go on for a while he finally said he'd consider the landlord to be the responsible one.
I shovel my front sidewalk (only one on my block) and have the back lane cleared just in front of my driveway.

I used the chisel end of one of these style bars and it's a very heavy bar. All I needed to do was stab it on the ice and it would crack it. After a couple hundred stabs I had cleared the entire lane way. a few houses down from me there was an asian man and his wife watching me go at it. He saw the end result and the next day he had what looked like a brand new axe that he was swinging into the ice on the ground.
so like this?

I noticed that in my neighbourhood as well, I don't know if it was from people dumping snow on the streets or if a plow just somehow plowed in the wrong direction

That looks like Guilby St?

Shoulda called the City, they will go and talk to him and if they catch him doing it they will make him put the ice/snow back.

Once the ice lifts in one spot it'll start lifting in other spots so you can just keep scraping away and hopefully not put as much effort in as he is into scraping but it's probably since the ice hes dealing with is pretty thick.
The more stabs you make the smaller chunks will be which would make it a lot easier to use a snow shovel than getting down and lifting them out by hand.

Squamish got over 6" fresh snow last night - the highways is still heavy snow, so if you are heading up to Whistler come prepared.

I dropped the kids off at school this morning. In the 7 blocks that I have to travel, I hit black ice about a half dozen times, and watched as the VW Jetta in front of me ended up on the center median when she hit the ice.

The whole lower mainland is a mess right now.

Rain followed by 6° temp = perfect time to clear the residual ice and snow off my parking spots.

someone posted a few days back seeing a property owner using a garden hose to clean off the surrounding pavement... i just went for a walk outside at work and just saw a property manager of a nearby apartment block using a gas powered pressure washer to knock off old hardpacked snow and ice from the walkways.
