A Calgarian voiced their frustration with snow piled up on sidewalks on their street after a plow reportedly came through, and it has ignited a conversation on Reddit.
Posted to Reddit by u/xyzdot over the weekend, the original poster claimed that the “city plowed and blocked all sidewalks.” Two photos show snow piled across the sidewalk, so much so that it completely covered any pavement to indicate a sidewalk is indeed there.
The post has since accumulated more than 500 comments and more than 1,100 upvotes.

The post seemed to strike a nerve with Calgarians, with many swapping their own stories when they faced a similar situation, along with their frustration.
Other Calgarians felt the pain of the situation but simply went with the notion that it was bound to happen and to deal with the impact.
Daily Hive has reached out to the City of Calgary regarding the post; as of writing, we have yet to hear back.
Snow issues have been a hot topic in Calgary over recent weeks — a new Calgarian recently expressed their dismay at learning that in Calgary, residents are responsible for clearing residential sidewalks within 24 hours after snowfall.
