Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: Blow the snow: Snow removal crews throughout Metro swung into action with first hint of yesterday's storm and the fact that traffic did move - even if slowly - is a credit to their work. Here a snowblower loads a truck on Yonge St. just north of St. Clair Ave. The job went all through the night and by this morning most of the main thoroughfares were cleared for traffic.
