Probably more of an engineering fuckup, but the only bridge across the Nipigon River, and the first cable stayed bridge in Ontario (traffic just started crossing on Nov. 29, the old span is being demolished right now) is experiencing some major issues. http://www.netnewsledger.com/2016/01/10/nipigon-bridge-heaves-cold-weather-impact/ So Canada is essentially cut in half.

Been closed for about two hours now, but from the looks of it this is a "start over again" sort of problem, at least when it comes to installing the cables. This website has a really good, higher res side profile. Looks like there is trouble in both spans. http://topoflakesuperior.ca/nipigon-news/nipigon-river-bridge-is-closed-in-both-directions/ This is definitely not abnormal cold in that region, either.
