Flexibility in government or any big organization is difficult to achieve. When it comes to closing bridges and stairways etc., there is some preparation and scheduling needed. This is usually done weeks in advance. How do we know when the first big blizzard will hit? We don't, regardless of climate change. We certainly don't want to have the bridge open and have someone slip under something into a fast moving Ottawa River like what happened in Quebec just recently. We can compare this to getting snow tires on our cars. The same logic would mean, why do we need snow tires on our car this winter? Look at the weather. Then we get two feet of snow next week, and wonder why we can't get an appointment to change the tires the day before, when everybody else is doing the same thing in a mad panic?
