It's not the size of the dog in the fight, but the size of the fight in the dog! Well done.

FWIW, I was looking at the City of Ottawa Bylaw on use of highways. https://ottawa.ca/en/use-and-care-roads-law-no-2003-498 The language specifically states tracked vehicles, but allows for written exemptions, ie parades ...

Section 3(1)No person shall, unless otherwise authorized by the provisions of this or any other by-law of the City,

(m) move, or cause to be moved a vehicle equipped with cleats, flanges, or tracks on its wheels, or rollers, or any of them, on or along the traveled portion of the highway, except by means of a float, trailer, or other similar device, providing that a vehicle is so equipped including a vehicle for the digging and backfilling of trenches, may be moved directly across the traveled portion of the highway, if a preventative mat has first been laid on the surface of the portion of the highway to be crossed, provided however that this paragraph shall not apply when a vehicle is operating with the written permission of the General Manager;

Terry, Stating the obvious, tracked vehicle laws like firearms laws vary where ever you go.

Canvas looks great Richard, not cheap though. Do you need to do anything specific to it to keep it water proof?
