The southwestern Ontario regional municipality of Chatham-Kent recently held two competitions to name its highway plows.

The first batch of winning entries includes: Betty Whiteout, Ctrl Salt Delete, Flurrie Jenkins (a riff on Ferguson Jenkins), Harry Plowter, Edward Blizzardhands, and Scoop Dogg.

The second round of voting produced: Anita Shovel, Gordie Plow, the Blizzard of Oz, Darth Blader, the Pillsbury Plowboy, Sled Zeppelin, Buzz Ice-Clear, Qunuk (Inuktituut for "snowflake"), Flurrious George, School's Not Cancelled, Snobi One Kenobi, and Sleetwood Mac.

The art of the pun is alive and well, and living in Chatham.
