Default advice for winter in the snowbelt!

hey guys. im moving into barrie for school tomorrow and my baby was already rustproofed when i bought it a coulpe months ago, but i was wondering if i should get it done again? and any other thing/s i need or should do for the winter [ besides the obvious ] in the next couple months? sounds like an odd question yes i know - but it came to mind.
thanks

invest in a set of winter tires/steelies.

nokian hakka's are best. stay away from canadian tire brands, but anything is better than bald all seasons!

Winter Tires or bust... should make them mandatory during winter.

Ive got Toyo Observe Garit H/Ts. Im going into my 4th season with them, and they are seriously solid winter tires. Read up on them, alot of people will back me up on the recomendation, and their construction/longevity is definate superior to others.
