That's one crazy video. The best one of the bunch that attempt to document that storm.

The photo I posted was taken in the downtown core.

Just noticed this AM - I have a handful of dents. They're hard to see but now that I know they're there, they'll need to be fixed.

Claim initiated. $250 deductible, no fault. Free rental up to $1000 under 'loss of use'. I'm impressed with Intact Insurance.
