Winter travel tips

The Canadian Government has issued a travel warning due to the cold weather


They suggest that anyone travelling in the current icy conditions should make sure they have the following before leaving the house:



Shovel
Blankets or sleeping bag
Extra clothing including hat and gloves
24 hours worth of food
De-Icer
Rock Salt
Flashlight with spare batteries
Road Flares or Reflective Triangles
Empty gas Can
First Aid Kit
Booster cables



I looked like a friggin idiot on the bus this morning!

Just be glad they did not require you to chain up before your bus trip.

Why would you want an empty gas can?

You spotted that, I wondered if anyone would ask, I guess it goes with the fact that it's government.
