When I was a kid there was little more Canadian than ice hockey on the frozen ponds. Now, the ponds are roped off with warning signs and we have to play in the rink all winter. We’ve given up a piece of the culture and, looking at the oil fields and the SUV/Pick up trucks in every driveway, I know we did it to ourselves.
Yeah, the ice is thinner, and very likely weaker for a given thickness, so the old rules of thumb about 10cm of ice being enough may not hold.
