for days like today, but not today
Sometimes you want to go to Canadian Tire, because Canadian Tire has things you need and would like to purchase. But when there is a bus strike, you must plan before you leave the house. And sometimes you find out that every Canadian Tire in your 'area' is over an hour walking distance away.
Then you decide not to go.
Then you decide not to go.

Everyone in this City is Nuts: An Essay.
People here bike on the canal; they take their bike and intentionally ride on the ice. They also happen to be doing this on the non-approved part of the canal that isn't open yet.
People here jog in the snow, in tiny tiny pants. They look out in the morning, see piles of snow and wind chill at -15 and they Go For A Jog!
People here frequently flout the warning signs and the 'closed for winter' notices, and climb over chained off stairwells and blocked paths, to walk on a non-shoveled, unsalted surface, because it Might save them a minute or two.
People here claim they Like winter.
