The ice age
Article Abstract:
Residents of northern Canada come out of their homes during winter rather than the summer because the frozen waters of swamps and lakes connect the villages to each other. The government and private contractors build roads over the frozen ice to facilitate transport and promote interaction among the people. Residents and visitors can pass through the winter routes via snowmobiles, sleighs, crawler tractors and even cars and trucks if the ice is solid enough to support the weight of these vehicles.
