We had a historic ice storm in Toronto during Christmas but I had to comment, the heritage red oak in my neighbourhood of Toronto withstood it and looked like a sentry as it watched all the other trees tumble down around it.
They could not handle the weight of the ice.
The attached photo was taken on December 23, 2013.

Chris:
If you google Edith George Heritage Trees you will find additional information.
The Ontario Urban Forest Council is celebrating our 50th anniversary this year, we started tree hugging in 1963.
The Woodland League, County Clare, IRELAND is now using our toolkit and a letter dated April 11, 2013 to the OUFC states, "Your wonderful compressive tool kit will not be used as a template for Ireland's first national Tree Protection Manual". Now that is one wonderful 50th anniversary present!
I would be honoured to come up your way and speak about this toolkit and tree protection on heritage trees.

I am hoping that people will come forward and write about issues regarding protecting heritage trees where they live.
