One of my coworkers is a bylaw officer and I had this same question last week that I asked him. He said it's a grey area, unless it has been stated in the lease that the tenant will be the ones responsible for cutting grass and keeping side walks clear then they'd have no incentive to go and do it themselves. 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.
Guy cleared the ice/snow in front of his property... but dumped it on the road for all of us to enjoy.
Spoiler!
The day after:
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
Basically the same. His chisel end is curved which is probably why he's using the pointed end when scraping. But same idea, stab the ice and let the weight of the bar do its work then scrape the same way he did but use the chisel end and it'll get under it and lift it up. 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.

ppl will drive over it and it'll melt or it'll get stuck in their treads and they'll take it with them

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.

WOW. Are those gentlemen wearing a frilly dress shirt and a vest out in negative degree weather. Shame on us for getting decked out in Canada Goose. Those guys are hardcore.

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.
