The substance had been confirmed as fluorosilicic acid. The acid is used in fluoridating water, and in aluminum production.
The snow has been terrible, as it is precipitated by lowered temperatures, and there is ice underneath.
There was a much traffic on the 401, a major highway across our province.
Here's my favourite OPP Sgt., often on 401 Heavy Rescue, as they upright overturned trucks.
The Mallorytown incident was horrific. The traffic reports roll in. It's awful out there. We were happy to tuck in, fearful for all the First Responders, neighbour, and victims of this incident.
