It's clear from the City's response that they are still not taking the problem seriously.
It is possible to clear off snow without causing plastic pollution in our river.
In The Journal (which canβt be shared on FB) Andrew Knack explains the virtue of a private tree bylaw outlining how it complements our zoning bylaw helping us reach our tree canopy goals.

How can the City of Edmonton pretend this isn't a problem? We have been requesting for years that they switch to blade-based snow removal on bridges and sidewalks.
