First off, while I don't live in Halifax anymore, I'm not far away and I'd imagine a lot of people in the HRM have the same problem.

During this week's two storms, I was unable to use the sidewalks in my town because guess what? They weren't plowed!!!

Now I'm a pretty easygoing person and I understand that snow removal budgets are becoming depleted but what really gets under my skin is the utter lack of respect and understanding drivers have for pedestrians like myself who have to walk on extreme side of the road.

The other day in the twenty minutes it took me to walk to work, I was yelled at twice, flipped off once, and one kind gentlemen had the nerve to nearly hit me while yelling at me and flipping me off.

So I ask all drivers, before being an asshole please realize I'm not enjoying this anymore than you are.
