Brockville, Ontario here.
Michelin X-Ice winter tires on 18 inch winter alloy wheels. No problem whatsoever driving in winter. never got stuck once.
Had to actually go around RWD pickup trucks stuck diagonally and blocking both lanes in the street up a slight incline more than once by driving over and through the snow bank at the side of the street. Managed that no problem. One truck driver actually flipped me the bird as I went by, ha, ha!!
