How they clear snow from the roads in Montreal is oddly mesmerising

We bet that city doesn’t ground to a halt over the wrong kind of snow – or leaves on the line, for that matter.

Here’s how Reddit users reacted.

Wow, where I live in the US, they just shove all the shit onto your sidewalk and you can go fuck yourself.

This is way better.

Cool, it’s actually removing the snow rather than just piling up the banks.

In England we have about an inch of snow and the whole country stops.

In Canada we’re still wearing shorts with one inch of snow

Never seen anyplace that actually REMOVES it instead of pushing it onto the edges/private property.

Never even occurred to me someplace might do this.

Great system. When the video first started, I was like “damn, bro. Slow down!” Then I realized it was sped up. Duh.

If you knew how slow Montreal City Workers actually move, you’d understand why this had to be sped up.

I was in Montreal for the holidays in 2018 and it snowed like 2ft one day. We thought we were screwed but then this happened, all over the city. It was a beautiful dance of machinery and the snow disappeared.

The budget for snow removal in Montreal this year is close to $200 million.
