Canadian snow related equipment post WW2

[maple_leaf_eh]

Someone mentioned billy cans for melting snow.

The usual source were the largest tin cans from the kitchen with a wire bale. No NSN or common pattern, just to disappoint the rivet counters.

But, a large can you can afford to singe or scalp is better than the issue aluminum pot set. They are durable, but a bear to clean. BTW, snow does burn and it stinks.
