TORONTO — Snow-clearing crews are slowly making progress after an intense weekend storm battered parts of Ontario, allowing Highway 11 north of Toronto to reopen on Monday.
But one of the hardest-hit communities in Ontario's cottage country is still under a state of emergency and urging people to stay home as cleanup continues.
However, OPP Sgt. Kerry Schmidt said that not every highway entrance and exit has reopened as snow plowing continues. "Town snowplow crews and contractors continue to clear roads, but this work is limited and slow because of obstacles across roads and snow volume."
