Don't even have to go that far back, early 2000's I remember as a kid getting this much snow in a day.

"stranded in their homes" - it's called a snow day. Kick back and relax at home. Have some soup. Go out and shovel a judicious bit, come back in and have some more soup. Rinse and repeat. Come on Toronto...

I’ve driven in storms before and thought of braving this storm and still show up to work but I got stuck on the driveway while the building manager was shoveling it because the plow didn’t show up yet. He tried to create a way for me to get to the road but I got stuck just before getting to the road so I just reversed back in the parking lot and called it a day 😂

It is not just you. I am in my mid 50's. The snow in winter used to fall 6 to 8 inches, overnight into early a.m., and it was called December, January , February weather. And we'd usually get a winter storm in March, also. Snowball fights waiting for the school bus when we didn't get a snow day. And, if it wasn't necessary to go to work, on the weekends, (or during the week) the parents stayed off the roads on bad weather days, so as to not get into accidents. It was called common sense. Not so common anymore.

This is a lot compared to recent years but if you've been in Canada over three decades, this is still not that overwhelming lol. Lots of new immigrants must be so thrilled 😀

During Snowtember, to make it across the final unplowed section to the house, I strapped on the chains which of course limits you to about 20-30 kmh or you could damage your car, the car plowed through the heavy snow without a problem but it took longer to strap on the chains in the snow then the trip itself. On a later trip through the unplowed section, I chanced it without the chains and it was just drifting instead of steering and hoping momentum will carry you through the snow to your driveway or plowed road, basically a gamble hoping you don't get stuck and forced to pull out the traction aids or push, sometimes disabling traction control so you could spin the wheels will get you moving again albeit by polishing off a slippery rut to trap the next guy. It's usually possible to get through without a problem with chains but it's a real pain to strap on and you're limited to a very low speed with chains on so it's simply not worth trying at all especially as it's usually only for short segments before reaching plowed and sanded roads where you could drive faster if you're not chained. I can see using modern retractable studded winter tires though... Many of the fleet cars such as the buses have trouble because they use all season tires to avoid the logistics of seasonal tire changes and tire storage and I wouldn't be surprised if many of these stuck cars also have all season tires.

How is it different than being stuck in any vehicle without heat? Like with any storm, if ur not prepared, it’s on you if you get screwed. If you travel in cold weather often, stick ur vehicle with blankets and such, and add to your emergency items a propane heater. By the way, gas and diesel vehicles do run out of fuel. Duh. See, rather than acknowledging there are solutions to not dying “because, “electric car thingie”, you’d rather take a short cut to thinking and make yourself look stupid.
