March comes in like a lion

Magazines Canada is cursed. It seems that every time they schedule an event, the wrath of God prevails and Toronto gets whacked with an ice storm. Last year it was freezing rain in mid-February. This time it was heavy snow and ice on March 1 (famous for it's lionesque entrance).

Now perhaps I'm wrong and neither rain, nor snow, nor sleet, nor hail could keep the magazine and media minions away from the winning combination of free cocktails and an exhibit of award-winning magazine creative. Or maybe nobody made it and Magazines Canada should accept the harsh reality that despite our best efforts to warm the globe, Canada still gets nasty in the winter and try moving this event to April or May.

If you were there, please let me know if you had much company.
