The ice-covered roads made it unable to drive due to the dangerous weather conditions.

Some residents were even unable to walk outside of their own homes without falling or slipping onto the bitter frost.

Environment Canada issued a warning to its residents about the severity of the December storm. 

Instead of complaining about the 17-degree temperature and icy chills, however, the locals found a new way to travel.
