On October 24th, I offered almost the identical view of this scene. Sans the steam cloud, the snow and ice though - Check out the Posting here - Where today's vista differs from October's "A River Runs Through It" is in more than the production of ice and snow from several days of sub-zero temperatures.The steam cloud itself is the result of ethanol production at the now fully operational (Why does saying that remind me of the Emperor in the original Star Wars Trilogy films talking about the second Death Star?) Husky Ethanol Plant located on the western end of town. The heart of the plant is the distilling process that transforms wheat into ehtanol which is then be added to gasoline throughout the Prairie Provinces.
Most days as the cloud drifts over town the smell of fresh baked bread accompanies it. It's a slight change from the previous smell of toast, albeit NOT an unwelcomed one. One could call it the sweet smell of progress.
