❄️ Winter in southern Ontario is full of hard to navigate environmental conditions. Heavy snows, slick ice, freezing rain and endless slush. Staying safe when walking outside starts with these easy steps:
1) Wear footwear that is insulated, well-fitted, waterproof and have a thick sturdy sole designed for cold winter wear.
2) Use ice grips on shoes or walking poles if there is a chance of ice or uneven ground. 🥾
3) Stay alert and look ahead for possible risks. 👀
4) Walk like a penguin by keeping your arms free for balance and shuffling in small, short steps. 🚶
