QUEBEC - A man fed up with having a neighbour's snow blown into his yard is accused of slinging a 12-gauge shotgun to put a stop to it.
Quebec City police say the 63-year-old man blew a gasket when a snow-removal worker blew snow into his yard Sunday after a record-breaking fall of the white stuff on the weekend. "It was a storm, alright, a storm in the extreme," said Quebec City Const. Catherine Viel. "He blew a fuse. We've never seen anything like that."
Source. Pretty bad when people behave like this, but this much snow can get frustrating at times. Still, I haven't pointed a shotgun at my boss, not even when he declined to clear Saturday's dump from the driveway of the office (which is also his house) in favour of waiting till us grunts showed up to clear it.
The snow is breaking records all over the place. Later this week it's supposed to go above zero, with rain; at times like this I'm glad I don't live anywhere near a river. I could see things getting pretty hairy in low-lying areas like Galt and Bridgeport.
