This time of year is really bad for SK roads and our clay soil content helps make the potholes even bigger.

I think Winnipeg is the pothole capital of Canada and the city always gets claims for damage. I don't think they payout too many though. Potholes are caused by the freeze/thaw cycle in poor condition asphalt. Water in crack freezes and expands overnight allowing the next days water to get that much further, repeating until the patching truck gets there or a hole one foot deep tears off your passenger side wheels as I seen on the news today. Also, not spending money on road maintenance helps. Poor provinces I guess.
