This is possibly the most Canadian thing ever. The French Canadian town of Saint-Narcisse-de-Rimouski holds an annual snowblower race at their winter carnival with a grand price of a heat pump. 96.7 The River reports this year’s winner was a souped up Honda.

I was in that exact space a couple weeks ago, had no idea this was part of the Winter Carnival or might have tried to go watch. Totally keeping it in mind for 2018. Good Pokemon hunting there too, so extra bonus!
