Might still be considered “southern Ontario”, but I’m talking 3 hours north of Toronto.

Every time I go up skiing and the weather seems horrid, I’m doing something like 40-60 in an 80 or 90 because my 3pms all seasons make it feel dicey. Yet, I get passed all the time by people going around the speed limit.

What kind of tires you guys running?

Tires with the Alpine Symbol, 3PMSF, are the only tires that are allowed in Sweden on winter roads.

I don't know enough to recommend tires to someone else.
