Park in a fire lane in Kingston and the fine is $500.00 and your vehicle is towed ... another $150.00 + to get it out of the impound.:mosher:

why don't you use Cat Litter on your driveways or sand, and invest in a good pair of boots, then you won't skid down the street.

In Montreal they remove your car to another street while cleaning and you have to phone a special number to find out were they put your car.

Its quality not quantity.

We don't have ugly fire hydrants on the street, they are undergroud with a small access plate in the footpath like this
