I can see why that monster would cause an autumn leaf problem krich!! Yikes!
However, I'm pretty confident it was there before your house, so the tree gets ownership of its position!
Have you thought of moving your house!! Lol.

Cleaning leaf debris is nothing more than a fond Fall memory where we live. This is what I woke up to this morning.
It sounds like this is going to be an all day event, and it’s covering up my shovel path as fast as I clean it. And with -11c, -18c with wind,it should start melting in April, maybe.

Well, your snow shovelling antics weren't completely in vain RD. The crumb of comfort you can take away from this is that the exercise would have done you the world of good.
In fact, is snow shovelling the only form of exercise you get in Canada during the winter months?

Studded snow tires! Not that you would catch me on a bike in winter. lol
But I do see them almost every day, while I'm bombing past them in my Subaru.

There, what did I say, only six hours later and all the snow's gone!!!

In the 1st pic it looked like you had a hockey net set up in the backyard. lol
That tree is magnificent! I love it...but, yeah, it's pretty close to the building. How many tons of leaves do you remove from those upper-level eavestroughs each fall? 
And...it's so cute to hear Esox in his subtropical paradise wailing about the horrors of snow removal!
We finally got our first actual stay-on-the-ground snowfall yesterday...the day after I got my deer, which I had to drag on bare ground
... and it was just a couple inches, enough to look nice without impacting road travel. I'm sure that in the city there are still plenty of cyclists squirming around frenetically through traffic, wrapped in their thermal Spandex suits and their pointy helmets. Out here in the country, it's like
AR1
described: calming.
I a going out now to do a quick lap around the house and down to the garage with the snow-pusher; I need to go do my neighbours' house as well since they are on vacation down south. By the time I have finished that, any calming influence will have evaporated. I guarantee that
RD.
is certainly past that point as well.
