“Visibility may be suddenly reduced at times in heavy snow. while weather in the mountains can change suddenly resulting in hazardous driving conditions.”

Public Safety Canada encourages everyone to make an emergency plan and get an emergency kit with drinking water, food, medicine, a first-aid kit and a flashlight.
