From the Editor's Desk: Walking in a Winter BlackBerry Jam Land
If you follow me on twitter, you'll know I woke up to a big surprise this morning.... WINTER. Seriously. I know I live in Winterpeg, but it doesn't usually start on October 5th.
So for those of you around the globe who think of snow as a novelty, I headed outside to record a little catch up From the Editor's Desk video. Hit the video above and enjoy the quick update.
It's Thanksgiving in Canada this weekend, so I'll be back in just a couple of days with another From the Editor's Desk post... once I wake up from the Turkey coma that is. :)

Here in Toronto we don't usually get any accumulation of snow until mid December.

Love that T-Bird. What year is it.

That's a 1963. My brothers and I bought it for my dad when he retired 12 years back.... he used to have '62 when he was younger that he loved.
He also has one of the new style ones now... 2002 in black (which I love to drive).

Well its 0 and sunny here in Fort McMurray. Now snow yet and none in the forcast. Keep it down there in the south guys. Happy Thanksgiving to my fellow Canadian crackberry-holics.

I live just a few minutes south of winnipeg, and everyone around me is in the Christmas mode now! The snow sets off something in people. Enjoy thanksgiving all my fellow canucks, and don't worry Kevin, knowing Manitoba, it will be 25 again by the weekend and snow again next week
rotorwrench Oct 5, 2012 at 7:31 pm
Snow in the Rockies too. Arghhh....I'm not ready yet!!!!!!!
Jimcmf Oct 5, 2012 at 11:57 pm
wow .... winnipeg looks soooo beautiful..
Is that the earliest snowfall that you have ever had?
It's so pretty.
Why don't they bring the Olympics there? You have lots of mountains?
KiLuMaNaTi Oct 6, 2012 at 10:56 am
I don't want to see any snow here in the GTA until at least December. I don't want to have to get my snow tires put on just yet. Did you guys skip fall there or something?
mailchrisbailey Oct 8, 2012 at 10:13 am
What the hell is up with Canada? It's snowing first of all, looks like Christmas......and today is fricken thanksgiving?? Glad I live in Florida.
Rootbrian Oct 9, 2012 at 4:34 pm
