The cities of Kitchener and Waterloo have announced that their snow events have been extended an extra 24 hours and will now last right through Tuesday.

On Sunday, Kitchener, declared a snow event, as did Waterloo and Cambridge, which means that there is a ban on parking on city streets.

Anybody who ignores the ban risks being fined, or having their vehicles tagged and towed (at the owner’s expense) if a snowplow is unable to clean city streets.
