Kid Exasperated by Snow Strikes Chord with Viewers Around World

Not many kids would admit to wanting to be in school on a snow day, but after a hard day of snow shoveling, 9-year-old Toronto resident Carter Trozzolo was ready to head back into the classroom.

While doing a piece that aired Monday night on how the city’s residents were digging out from a blizzard that struck the region, a camera crew with a Canadian TV network, CTV, stumbled upon Trozzolo, who was digging out the sidewalk with his shovel. Given a chance to air his grievances to the world, Trozzolo, a resident of Toronto, was more than happy to share how he really felt.

“I am tired,” said Trozzolo, before sighing loudly. “I really wish I was in school right now,” he added.

Apparently, his parents had decided to really put him to work, and Trozzolo had been shoveling for “neighbors, friends, probably people I even don’t know,” he explained. “There was a lot of snow, let’s just say that.”
