No, Vancouver is paralyzed. To the rest of us Canadians its just another snowy day.
Silly that's the new Canadians being trained in WINTER! We all learn somehow!
Bro. Canada doesn't get paralyzed even in -50 C.
vancouver is basically not even canada lol. they usually only get rain.
and honestly thats not even a lot of snow.
Most of Canada doesn't have to deal with the black ice that we get here on the coast when the temp is freezing +-1 C.
The black ice keeps even the would be paralyzed moving along even against their will.
This is Vancouver
you know. rains 5 months of the year
maybe gets one snow dump a year. it lasts about 3 days and is gone.
Sensationalist BS ! Canada is not paralyzed ! The rest of the country is just fine , thank you.
Exactly ! Second biggest country on the planet and 1 city gets snow and suddenly "Canada is Paralized".
ព្រិលធ្លាក់ច្រើនកាលណាសប្បាយបើកឡានកាលនឹងជាពិសេសពេលត្រជាក់-៣៩°c ឡើងទៅលើ។ 😂
Paralyzed If It's Your First Winter Maybe ... Lol !!!
How else to make a living? Actually go out and work? In this weather?😅
Exactly
OMG I cannot stop laughing,,,,,, this must be an American channel, in love with talking about Canada's weather, while their own is a mixed bag of everything!
And, no Canada, is not paralyzed, we are doing just fine here in the province of B.C.....Well, other than Vancouver that is. The Vancouver people, see they don't think they need to buy winter tires, they enjoy the sensation of sliding all over the road, and slamming into other vehicles! It is a good way to meet people! It is a bit of a winter sport there. Bless their souls.
🚙
Yup, the annual Vancouver meet and greet.
Lol
It's been below -30 for the better part of 2 weeks where I live and it's life as normal. Even most of B.C is find in these conditions. We are not paralyzed in any way.
10 to 20 cm of snow in Ontario is not a huge event. Buffalo just had 50 cm of snow and had a football game the next day. It is all about being prepared and having enough of the right equipment and trained staff.
Vancouver has a snow budget of roughly $7 million. Montreal's budget is $200 million. Vancouver just rolls the dice every year hoping for no or little snow, forcing the residents to suffer on days such as today. Sometimes they do nothing if there's a possibility of rain .
In Alberta we just deal with it and get on with our day.
@@thomasmead4642 Same here in southern B.C. Vancouver may be paralyzed, but the rest of the province goes on about business as usual!
Well u guys ignore the fact most of the mainland cites happen to be settled in hilly terrains which complicates the driving this is such game changer since this critical factor really test your stamina skills and experience so driving through really uphill and downhill roads are way different from your reality in Ontario Montreal and Alberta so show much more respect to all the Vancouverians
@@user-xi7oc3fr5kPeterborough in Ontario is exactly like you discribed. A hilly nightmare even on a summer day. Parts of the city turn into walls of slick ice, impossible to drive on. I think the difference here is preparation. We know what to expect, because it happens like clockwork every year. Where this is a sudden change for BC, they are in total disarray and it's too be expected. These exact conditions would still suck here, but it would not make the news. I think thats what has most Canadian's being smart ass'. My first winter here had me in a total panic, now i ride my bike in similar conditions.
I loved when it snowed on Vancouver Island. Everything shut down including schools. I live in Alberta now and no school ever gets a snow day haha
If it gets too cold, they shut down schools. Blackfalds school shut down last Friday.
It was severely cold. Up to -50 below?
I live in Edmonton and even with 20cm of snow and -50 c there was still school
@@sheldawillson104 I don't believe there was school at -50.
@@mbh114 Well, don't believe it then. When I went to college in Grande Prairie, we still went to school at -50.
@nathanadrian7797 To say schools never or don't shut down at -50 is Untrue. They do, as they did last week.
This brings back memories of when I used to live in Vancouver. I would sit in my apartment at the bottom of Arbutus and watch people slide down the hill into each other. I liked to take my Suzuki Samurai out at 3:00am when the streets were empty and play by driving through snow drifts and sliding around corners. It was so slippery that I could do it all in slow motion.
Living in Vancouver I don’t feel paralyzed. And, I don’t think it’s Jan 117.
😄😄
Its just fear porn to justify the unjustified carbon tax. Vancouver had snowfall before without media hysteria.
It’s only Vancouver and the lower mainland that gets paralyzed because most don’t have proper winter tires and have no winter driving experience. I’m in Kamloops BC and the rest of BC that gets harsher winter and most of us still drive. British Columbia alone is larger than just Vancouver let alone Canada. Lol
Lots of hills with ice under the snow.
Chains and extra weight in trunk and low gear works for me.
Canada is paralyzed?? BC is one province out of ten and they freak when there's 2 centimeters of snow.
Not all of bc freaks out. Vancouver mainly.
If you can make out the shape of a snowdrift as being a car. . . It's not alot of snow
Well, we got about the same in Finland today! Life goes on😂😂
Canada is not paralyzed! We get winter every year. If people don’t buy snow tires, it’s on them!
Hey, kids,
It's winter time. It's supposed to snow.
Been doing it for millions of years.
I love it when Hongcouver gets a reminder it's in Canada there goes are insurance rates. Got to - 42 like Elk valley gets rid of cold virus- pine beetle and no homeless robberies.
In Alberta, we call this Wednesday. Have FUN Karens😅😅😅
This Only Strengthens My Resolve ...
"BECAUSE , I , I'M CANADIAN!"
Eu aqui em casa (StºAndre/SP/Brasil), reclamando do calor de 30 Cº neste momento...Parei de reclamar!!!
That's too hot :) Not yet unbearable, but getting there :)
@@dmitripogosian5084 Normal weather in Montreal in summer!
Simplemente maravilloso video, reímos, lloramos, nos motivamos a perseverar en nuestras metas, Waow no hay más palabras… Irving mis respetos, es una delicia disfrutar su sonrisa, su emoción por los logros de su amada🥰Gracias chicos por compartir esta vida que solo es de paso pero muy linda, e invitarnos a distancia convivir con tan hermosísima familia, bella señora, pediremos mucho por ella en nuestro rosario a la Virgen, y claro por Razvan que son los que veían a diario al papá ☹️ un fuerte abrazo! Los queremos muchísimo! Desde California y desde el corazón enviamos nuestros mejores deseos ❤😘
That's standard weather for Québec, lol
Considering that in Québec, we have only 2 seasons... construction and winter.
Thanks, Wild Weather US.
May your snowfall be minimal in comparison.
So what your saying its really just another day in Calgary. We don't shut schools because its cold ;) Cheers from AB!
the reason most people are underprepared is because we got a ton of snow on Wednesday night, and by Friday it will be warm and raining. most people think we dont get enough winter to need to prepare
Wow! That is unusual for southern BC. That's a lot more snow than we've had in PEI this year (so far).
Just saying.. there is MORE snow in BC than where I am in ALBERTA... BUT we did get the Cold 🥶 -43
I live in VAncouver, and ive never experienced -43. Wondering how is that ??
In Vancouver snow is called white death.
in Richmond it is the end of days 😂
Just another ski day
Vancouver can’t handle snow
The title of this video shows that the person who posted this video either doesn't live in Canada or never goes out of Vancouver
There isn't a single city in Canada, except Vancouver, that would be paralyzed by this little snow. What we see in this video wouldn't even be called a storm in most of Canada...
Same here in Montreal 🌨️🌨️🌨️
A fraction of Canada. We're fine where i am. And it's warmer out east. We had maybe 20cm of snow. -25 right now but it's clear and dry.
I’m in Montreal and is business as usual. Roads are nicely clean always.
Looks like a Beautiful Winter Day
Welcome to no fault insurance 😊
normal winter day in canada
Yeah, we are not only snow birds, we’re also snowman too.😂 Never get paralyzed 😅
The world has changed
*Nam myoho rengekyo* 🙏 pray 🌍 peace 🕊️ be safe///
It makes me so happy that the part of the country that normally gets away scoff free in winter is getting pounded.
In the 1960 s this was normal winter snowfall
Let’s remember, 10 centimetres is only 3 inches!
Get your headlines straight, Canada is quite a bit bigger than just portion of BC.
Canada is more than Vancouver. Some places barely have any snow
There is a law in Canada that all passenger vehicles must have all four wheels with dedicated snow tires by December 1st. I don't know if it applies to all provinces but it does in Quebec.
End of October to end of March in BC.
Not in Alberta or other places ...IT SHOULD BE THE RULE OF ANY ROAD WHERE YOU GET SNOW ..WINTER RUBBER...POSSIBLE FROM END OF OCTOBER ...
Not in Alberta. Never had winter tires, all weather just fine.
@@dmitripogosian5084 ...trust me as having been a driver 7 days a week 365 a year and winter tires for winter are the best to have .. ALL weather are for 3 SEASONS ONLY !!!
@@dmitripogosian5084 all weather have a snowflake on them designating them as legal snow tires.
Just Vancouver is NOT Canada. Here in Toronto, we have mild winter, and I'm loving it. It's high time, Vancouver struggled a little bit, having good weather all year long since many years.
This is an area where it usually rains
snow is not really that common
the big problems are way too many with all seasons or rain tires.
hardly anyone actually knows how to drive in the snow. so larger dumps that you wouldn't notice on the prairies are critical hits.
Vancouver residents are not used to this much snow so it’s understandable that they feel helpless.
I lived in Montreal and it was expected to have even more snow and cold several times during winter.
Vancouver had ONE DAY of snow with about 6cm on the ground. That's not a snow storm. It was messy on the roads yesteday from morning till afternoon. Today, all the main roads are clear and the residential streets are manageable. Quite far from a "snow storm". Lived here my whole life and this amount of snow falls below the normal range.
People - if you live in an area that typically doesn't get a lot of snow, do yourself a favour and stay home. If your car is not equipped for Winter weather (tires, studs, chains, etc.) then you are putting yourself and others at risk. In Ontario and Quebec most of us have winter tires and experience driving in the snow. Our ploughs are also much more dependable, but we can drive in 10-15 cm of snow if we have to.
Wow that's a lot of footage you gathered from everyone
Vancouver drivers aren't much better than this even in ideal conditions.
because they don't clear the snow often, the tow truck doesn't travel with traffic only goes sometimes but in the opposite direction
No electricity, cold water, bare feet: those where nuns !
A winters normal day where I live
Watching this video, I only wish I could help some of the less experienced drivers, how to handle a vehicle safely in bad weather conditions. I drove school busses in some of the worst mountain roads in Europe, and also worked as a driving instructor or many years. I really loved it when some of the more courageous students requested lessons in bad road conditions. This was the time I felt doing something really worthwhile.
Driving in poor conditions doesnt come down to pure skill, it's about preparation and infrastructure. Neither of those things existed in Vancouver because they don't typically get snowfalls like this. It's a completely different thing to drive somewhere that people have vehicles and infrastructure prepared for such an event. It's the same idea as a hurricane hitting somewhere hurricanes don't normally hit... the difference is stark. You aren't some special "snowflake" able to drive like magic through winter conditions when there is absolutely no infrastructure for it.
@@oourdumb You're wrong and you should step away from the key board before you embarrass yourself more.
If you were to help them, you would take away some of our best entertainment.
I do enjoy your dark humor, but still feel sorry for crash victims, I bet it isn't great entertainment for them.@@nathanadrian7797
What the government needs is to force new drivers to be required to be able to drive in snow.
thats the real winter, not here 6 plus in winter 😏
Actually this isn't real winter
Vancouver's concept of winter is a few days of -10 or worse and 1 snow dump. this might happen once a year.
real winter is in most of Canada where a warm -30 and several feet of snow is considered a good year.
Vancouver Island hardly got anything -- just a few inches -- and it's so mild, I took off my jacket and gloves and shoveled in my short sleeve shirt.
Colorado ski resorts were hit with 100 cm of snow this week. The US was paralyzed.
Vancouver is always paralized when snow falls. It will melt in couple of days
And the Island - especially Victoria 🤣! Snow ❄️ Day all around!
Most of Canada gets this much snow, but this is heavy, sticky, gross snow.
Please….we’re use to it, it’s a stroll in the park!…..but gotta say, here in sunny Toronto….almost zero snow, just cold, and go back above 0 (32 Fahrenheit) in a few days…piece of cake! Feel sorry for the rest of North America, especially the lower states, 1” of snow and they shut down the state!
I see people moving trucks driving i donot see people paralized just cooooolllllllddddd
strange looks like no one has winter tires there or plows
Because it never snows in Vancouver
And the title of this video is a joke. Every Canadians are make fun of Vancouver for being paralyzed by less than 10 centimeters if snow. In my city we litterally got two storms of 40 centimeters last week and life went on as usual
@@PatG-xd8qnVancouver's snow budget is $7 million a year. Montreal's is $200 million.
Coastal BC doesn't get a lot of snow at the lower altitudes and so it can really get bad on those rare occasions. Vancouver is not like Montreal or Toronto in the winter months. It is a lot milder and rains most of the time.
What paralysed? Just moved 2 feet of fresh dumped snow so i can get to the grocery store... Taking a neighbour with me while her sons dig her out. All the neighbours are out - it's almost a party - welcome to winter! Woohoo!
It is a lot of heavy wet snow. The worse kind. And if it melts/adds rain and then freezes it will be an ice nightmare. Stay safe Pray. Your help cometh from the hills :)
Did the snow put out the fires?
Translink can't even get up a small incline with barely half inch of snow like last Thursday. What makes anyone think after 6 inches of snow today?
Wow. I swear I will never, ever, bitch about the weather in Tasmania again.
One of the reasons I was never attracted by immigrating to Canada : EXTREME COLD 8 months per year !
Its nice where I am, near Lake Superior.
This storm was nothing compared to the 8 feet of snow in 36 hours in 1996 in both Vancouver and Victoria
Just looks like another fun day of driving around. There are still people in Alberta that have trouble, roads are better now, tires excellent, AWD autos work well with a real driver, Yet snow comes.
C is for Celsius FYI. Cheers
I ride my bike to work on at least 10 days like this every winter in Ontario. It's all preparation to be honest. You expect bad weather and you plan accordingly. I do wish public works was as efficient and effective as some European countries, but admittedly Canada is quite big and spread out.
Here in Ontario we call that normal snowfall. Nothing to cry about. But you have an ndp government and that explains it all.
Why is this channel called wild weather US? Is BC a part of the US?
Yeah in 2021 they invaded and took us by force, you didn't hear? It was huge news.
What, No tire chains?
最爱的季节
we need in canada 300cm of snow lol
Although it can snow at anytime, it is more likely between November through April.
I`m with the person that opened the door looked at it then closed and locked the door. I`d just stay in when its like this.
You SILLY! It is Canada! Winter happens. We are NOT surprised! Me? -37C... I plugged in my car heater.
This kind of snow storm, we call it kid stuff in the maritime!
Warmest snow on record 😂
Snow in BC = "CaNAdA iZ pAraLyZEd"
* laughs in Saskatchewanese *
Canada is paralyzed 😂😂😂 man you America's love drama it's just in Vancouver Canada is more than prepared to handle winter
The weather is alot better in Nova Scotia.
Canada is a continent-wide, coast to coast country with wide range of different weathers and climates in different provinces and regions . Please do not claim falsehoods and lies.
OMG.NHS Trust ✝️ 🇬🇧 After Every STORM comes a RAINBOW 🌈 🌎 🗽 2024 🙏
👍👍👍
How is that bird still alive
Good winter tires would eat threw this. Everyone thinking all season is awesome. Lmao
I can promise you. We are not paralyzed. This shit has happened every year for millennia. We're used to it
BC is like the U.S. You get 2cm of snow and everything closes. People don’t even know how to drive on snow.
January 117?? You Canucks are really advanced! 😂
January 117, what a crazy day 😂
If they had more snow graters and sanders they would be fine. BUT because snow is rare it doesnt pay to have all that equipment just sitting around, therefore when it happens they need tp spring into action with a skeleton crew and equipment. The rest of us eat, sleep, dream crappy roads, snow, and ice lol! TBH, I would rather that than all the rain and gloomy skies. I prefer big sky Alberta.👍🙂
Don't you just hate it when some video just over estimates weather, snow is going to fall on the BC coast often. I grew up there and we had snow often. The problem is too many new citizens have no experience driving in snow, especially wet coastal snow. That is the problem. We got 20 cm today in the Kootenays of BC minus 8 c all day dry snow and drivers who know how to drive in snow. Thiis Vancouver snow nevers lasts more than a few days at most.
good luck with your Naut omobile
