Original Toronto Star caption: Cold comfort. The weather was Arctic - but so were the dogs at Cold Creek Conservation Area, near Nobleton, at the weekend. Above, a trio of Siberian huskies, in a custom-built travelling compartment, arean't the least bothered by icy winds as they await their turn to compete in sled-dog races. They should like today's weather, too - windy and cold (high - 9C).
