温哥华新闻: BC应对雪天反应措施慢半拍惹民怨

Essential travel@only for metro Vancouver??? Gee I wonder why Canada laughs at Vancouver in winter. 10 cm of snow falls and the world ends.

My new to Vancouver Edmonton friends are just chuckling at vancouverites right now “essential travel only” “snow storm” I mean they get it that Vancouver is unaccustomed to such weather it’s just still shorts weather for them.

What a collosal failure by our govt. A few cm of snow and we are advised to stay off roads. What a clown show. Imagine the rest of BC or Canada operated like this. They wouldn't drive for 4-5 months of the year.

Probably should have done this Monday.

Or maybe municipalities should ban all non essential travel during a major snow event, as they do elsewhere in Canada - so snowplows can get their work done. There was NO NEED for F2F university classes yesterday, to name just one example. We all learned how to do online...

Today, I wrote to @Rob_Fleming requesting a review of the winter maintenance contract for our highways. I also requested a review of the BC Emergency Alerting System to notify local residents if the highway system is out of service, limiting others from becoming stranded. pic.twitter.com/Jm2RCAlNYJ
